Welcome to Where Are We Heading? — a walk-and-talk podcast with Kim and Dan. What started as weekly walks to check in on each other’s creative lives became a grounding ritual and now, a show about navigating the messy, beautiful journey of living creatively and sustainably.
In this first (unofficially official) episode, we introduce how the podcast began, share our stories of burnout, ADHD, and rediscovering joy, and talk about why walking and talking has been such a lifeline for both of us.
On this walk , we talk about:
How the idea for the podcast started (and why it had to happen outdoors).
The role of walking, movement, and nature in our creative recovery.
Dan's journey through ADHD and burnout in the music industry.
Kim’s story of chronic fatigue, CPTSD, and rediscovering balance.
What it means to live creatively without burning out.
Key Takeaways / Themes
“Done is better than perfect” — creative work doesn’t need to be polished to be meaningful.
The power of movement as medicine for burnout and mental health.
Creative work and well-being are inseparable; balance is the real success.
Walking side-by-side makes it easier to have honest, vulnerable conversations.
We don’t have all the answers — and that’s what makes the journey worth sharing.
