Moving to Seattle has reminded him how every scene has its own rhythm, and why you have to immerse yourself to really be part of it.</p><p>This episode is all about community, collaboration, and why you can’t make it as an artist alone. If you’re trying to build a creative career, this is the step you absolutely can't skip.</p>
