Podcast Description
Award winning podcast host Phil Griffin talks life & the moments that change us with iconic cultural figures whose own lives have shifted culture. Phil encourages and empowers each guest to explore their journey; even when it feels like it's against the tide. The conversations with our collaborators are deep and insightful, with empathy and celebration at the core. We focus on the true unfiltered experiences of our guests; the epiphanies & the pitfalls, told in their own words, on their own terms.
"Always be a little bit out of your depth. And when you don't feel that your feet are quite touching the bottom, you're just about in the right place to do something exciting."
- David Bowie
A NEW KIND OF PORTRAIT
Each episode is a portrait, created through the art of open conversation, where trust is always the signature. Through long- form interview we discover in each interviewee, who they are now, the journey to making that happen, and what all that means for the person, the artist and the future.
We share stories that provide real artist insight and new moments of revelation for our guests. Each episode adds a little piece to the jigsaw of the bigger story; how to become self-aware, self-actualised and self-accepted.

Today I am blessed to share connection with Jp Cooper a singer songwriter who always gives us everything in his heart, but only on the understanding it may hurt…just a little.
We meet as Jp’s Album “A few Folk” offers the audience the most truthful and heart felt collection of songs to date. Songs that get his dopamine firing on all emotional cylinders. The result is a gift to our ears.
In this episode I learn that JP, is the friend my soul never knew it needed and I am grateful to have met him. Without doubt, this is an artist for the ages, a unique human whose ability to understand the “beauty of tragedy” allows him to touch us with compassion from the moment his un-parralleled voice soars into our hearts.
