Gigsalad.com - This is the one I have the most experience with. It's often a race to the bottom, the leads are generally Uncle Schmo wanting entertainment at his Halloween party, but good leads DO HAPPEN there
Me going off on a rant about how you shouldn't be giving discounts just because something is a fundraiser or a non profit 7:20
StageLync (formerly Circus Talk) is $8/month for the pro version 10:00
Circus Guide Agency - I don't really see the point in this platform if I'm honest, no shade though. 13:30

Your only job: make your work. put your work forward. 17:45 SO SAY WE ALL
Request #1: "Guilt about landing a contract and not enjoying/liking it" -Anya 2:45
Why I think not liking an opportunity is pretty exciting (as long as you use that information for future you) 5:00
Request #2: "How to schedule when time has no meaning. Basically, when you are the mistress of your own time, but are a roomba when left to your own devices, any tips on how to stick to that "I will start at 10am, and finish at 7pm" thing" -Kat 7:00
Schedules are tools, but they are only useful if they increase your accessibility to engage with your life 8:30

You don't want to be controlled
You don't value the thing you're in pursuit of
You don't perceive promises to yourself as worth keeping

An essential skill for sustainable artistic pursuit over a lifetime 19:00
This episode is by request from Nicole who asked "Can you do an episode about the seriousness of art? I can't help feeling like a lot of art is pretentious."
This episode is by request from my friend Fallon, who asks, "How do you find the balance between the art consuming you and the other important things/people in your life? Do you let it overtake you for the month(s) before, and then have a break after? Are you able to find breaks in between? If so, how??"
What you'll hear:
shitty sound quality because I don't have my microphone here in Ireland (blame the snake).
One week down at the IADF, one week to go 2:00
Getting into the meat of Fallon's question of how to find balance during crunch time by defining what balance is and understanding that it's a dynamic state, not a static one 4:00

My five, as a starter pack: sleep, food, water, down time, solitude
Today's episode is by request from my friend Vix, who asks:
"As someone who has been creating their own one-woman show, how do you show your work-in-progress if you’ve only got one act or partial act? I’m specifically referring to residencies that ask for works to be shown as part of their program (ex. “one night performance open to the public to show WIP,” “two nights of shows that the venue will help promote,” etc.). Do I just put on my 4-5 min aerial piece and then talk everyone to go home? What if I intend to create a much longer show (be it one person or multiple people), but I just haven’t gotten that far in the process? I love the idea of a WIP showing but is this what these residencies are really asking for?"
Let's talk about it!
The "danger" of coming to an artist residency from the context of a gig worker, and how that can derail your experience during the residency by focusing solely on the end-of-residency showing
How does your context influence how you view the opportunity to share a WIP? 5:11
How I totally forgot this in real life 7:00
IF YOU LISTEN TO NOTHING ELSE IN THIS EPISODE, LISTEN TO THIS 8:40
Thanks for all the responses to my birthday ask for what you want to learn/see from me! Here are some that I got through Instagram that I wanted to respond to.
A story about being asked to speak at a Women's Studies class when I was working as a skrippah in college. It did not turn out like I thought it would. 5:00
My birthday ask! I would LOVE to know, if there is something you'd like to see from me or learn from me, please do share! I'll be very grateful. You can email me here. 12:40
This episode is in response to a question I got from my internet friend and patron Bethaney, who asks: How did you meet your husband and do you feel that your relationship has affected your art? In what ways do you feel a spouse/partner can influence our ability to create? And does a difficult partnership affect us creatively?
Let people have their own experiences/feelings/consequences
Fantasy role-play with your anger. What does your anger want you to do? What does it want you to say? Fantasize your pants off about it. It's ok if fantasies are harmful when they stay in your brain and help your brain achieve a sense of satisfaction and validation.
Take any other actual, unharmful action necessary to care for yourself.
You'll find a link to a public google document below, as Jess gave me LOADS of supporting information for anyone who is curious! Because of the character limit for shownotes this is my creative solution. You'll find Jess' resources at the bottom, happy diving!
I was thrilled to sit down with my new friend artist activist Dr. Jess Allen to discuss the intersection of art and activism. Here's what you'll hear:
Is art activism? (TL;DR: No) 3:00
Jess responds to a critic who insists that art and activism cannot go together 11:50
Defining durational work and Jess' walking art practice (did y'all know that was a thing? cause I didn't) 21:15
Advice from Jess for artists looking to use their art for activism 30:50
What is emancipated pedagogy? As defined by Jacques Rancière (1991) The Ignorant Schoolmaster. Stanford: Stanford University Press. 35:00
The only model that most of us are exposed to in learning is hierarchical- so what would it look like practically to be in a learning environment that was non-hierarchical? 41:00
Art activism and accessibility 47:00
An adorable story about weeping over some chilis in a plastic bag 1:01
View Jess' complete resources here! (They would not fit into the character allowance on Buzzsprout, this link will take you to a public google document that you can view freely)
Please do yourselves a great favor and peruse more of Jess' work here on her portfolio: Portfolio
A request for requests! My list is getting pretty thin, don't be shy to reach out and let me know if there's something you'd like to hear about on this podcast. 1:00

The advice I've given 100s of times and am now being forced to follow myself 4:40
What your job is during creation, phase 1 6:50
How phase 1 is going for me (spoiler, it's SO MUCH FUN)
Advice for anyone else in the creative trenches 9:50
Acknowledge what stage of creation you're in:
embryonic
Phase 1 (collecting material)
Phase 2 (editing and feedback)
Desert of Suck (can happen at any time, is not permanent
This episode is by request, from my woman Rebecca, who asked, "When you're creating a larger piece of work (i.e. something longer than the standard 3-5 minutes), at what point do you ask others for feedback? At a rough draft phase or more of a pre-final phase? And if you're creating something that requires original music, at what point do you reach out to someone for that?"
This episode is by request: "I was wondering if you’d like to make a podcast episode on living in the South. I’m so excited to return to the swamps but with the political climate I am nervous on how to navigate day to day life and not let the bastards grind me down so to speak." -Brandi
The difference between perfectionism (in the way that I use it) and high standards of excellence. Spoiler: if it stops you from doing stuff, it's bad. 7:20
What follows is many minutes of diatribe where I agree with Caroline Perez and just urge you to not blame yourself for your rational responses to the world around you.
Facilitating a sense of safety and GRACE in ourselves and in our communities can help us move OUT of this suppressive psychological landscape of needing to be correct all the time. 19:00
What if the point isn't to be correct, but to be fully alive? And what if being correct is not the way to feel that? 20:10
A two-pronged episode based on complimentary requests. You could summarize this episode by asking the question: why is it so hard to freakin be happy when you have good shit happening in your life?
What you'll hear:
Part I:
I just landed a contract I have spent the last two years dreaming about and I don't know how to process/deal with it. It feels like 'in the future' got here so quickly that I haven't caught up with myself yet and i keep swinging between "this isn't happening' 'they must have confused me with someone else" and "*confused static noises* -Helen
What happens after your dreams come true? And why doesn't it feel BETTER? 1:45
Storytime about my dreams coming true and how it sent me into a spiral 2:55
How I ended up recording a 20 minute screaming rant while trying to "rehearse" Keep your eyes peeled on the Patreon if you'd like to see this rant, it was actually really good looking back on it now. 6:15
"Pressure doesn't make good work, it makes good panic attacks."
For the first time ever, I'm making Teeth public. This is what I ended up making on that residency: https://youtu.be/3LVHOqEUIn4 Content warning: early loss. 8:46
The Ego Gap: why it can feel less than wonderful when you finally get what you want 10:55
Part II
A friend confided in me that she's avoiding doing her work even though when she actually does it, it makes her happy. Why do we procrastinate on doing things we actually want to do? 12:30
Brene Brown's quote about shame: “If you put shame in a petri dish and cover it with judgment, silence, and secrecy, you’ve created the perfect environment for shame to grow until it makes its way into every corner and crevice of your life. If, on the other hand, you put shame in a petri dish and douse it with empathy, shame loses its power and begins to wither. Empathy creates a hostile environment for shame—an environment it can’t survive in, because shame needs you to believe you’re alone and it’s just you.” Brené Brown, Dare to Lead: Brave Work. Tough Conversations. Whole Hearts.
My take on why it's so hard for humans to be happy 20:00
Today buffet episode brought to you by the late spring that has FINALLY arrived!
What you'll hear:
Question from a listener: I was wondering if I could request a topic... I have been recently feeling a bit down due to a break-up with my aerial duo partner/best friend. I know this situation is probably pretty common but I am finding it hard to move on even though I know it is probably for the best.
TLDR: I have no idea. I'm so sorry. 1:45
Storytime from my own life about friend break ups 2:00
Sometimes the end isn't the end (sometimes it is) 3:50
Healing isn't attaining something, it's being free of something 6:00
Question from a listener: Podcast idea: how to navigate a show when your director gives you no constructive feedback, no direction, and has bad taste. Asking for a friend. 6:32
Not every project is going to be awesome, which is a side effect of being a professional 9:15
It is a role of director to solve problems in the pursuit of the vision 10:30
Question from a listener: Yesterday I had a chat with a student of mine who is over 60 about how /where she could perform, I know she is not the only one who found aerial later than what is normally considered for gigs and shows. So I thought I’d suggest the topic of alternative route la to performing for those “aged out” or other circumstances. 12:30
My turn to ask for something...does anyone know a physical performer in their 60's who had found access to stages? 13:08
Any questions you have about the intersection of art and activism, please do send them my way so I can ask an upcoming guest, Dr. Jess Allen! 14:20
An episode by request from a listener! This is by extension, a part II of a question answered in Episode 116; "how do you defend your creative boundaries" except this part II is a more advanced version: "How to tell your friends “no”. Like, kind wonderful people in your life want to collaborate/have you in a performance but it simply does not align with your goals OR you know that you will not work well together."
I'm also ACTIVELY LOOKING for new creation/rehearsal space in Charleston, SC. If you know of anything, please do reach out and let me know! You can contact me through my website here. 4:30
Why this part II is an advanced level boundaries question 6:28
Storytime from my own life about friendship conflict 9:00
You have TWO CHOICES when presented with an opportunity you do not want to take with someone you care about (almost everyone will take option #1) 11:04
Why being brutally honest is a greater kindness 18:00
Homework! Ask for something in the hopes of being told no, just as an experiment 19:00
Today for your listening pleasure, I have a true circus hero- physical therapist, circus artist, and my dear friend Dr. Jen Crane! Jen's work has revolutionized circus training, and I know because I watched her do it, and she changed my life and saved the right side of my body (and many, many other bodies I know personally and professionally). I am delighted to bring her on Audacity Works, please enjoy!
Questions from all of you! "I am a 40-something neurodivergent circus performer. I hear people talk about 'active rest' and I have no idea what that means. Maybe you could ask Jen Crane?!" Mission accepted!
Active rest is an extension of training, not a substitute.
"You wouldn't cancel on a coach you had a lesson with, don't cancel on yourself when you have rest scheduled."
What to look for in a physical therapist and how to find a good fit for YOU. Questions you can ask:
Are you willing to pay out of pocket for a really good fit?
Bear in mind that out of pocket/network usually means a more specialized PT, and being able to have less visits overall
Are there dance/gymnastics/rock climbing/sports PT's in the area?
How long is each appointment time? Out of network PT's generally spend more time (45-60 minutes) with their patients. The first appointment time should really be 60 minutes.
What are the letters after their name (what trainings/education do they have?) Jen recommends they should have ONE of these in addition to PT:
ATC - certified athletic trainer
OCS - orthopedic certified specialist
SCS - sports certified specialist
What's the vibe? (read their bios!)
Knowing what you want out of the relationship, such as more of a manual therapy focused clinician, or exercise based?
WTF is dry needling and why does it work so well?
On mango sticky rice in Thailand, and working with the Olympic teams in China (I promise these two things are somewhat related)
How not to eat duck tongue
Question from a listener! (Hi Fallon!) "tell us about the dogs: names, breeds, ages, how you got them" :)
Squees about Jen getting married!! Squeeeeeee How Jen and Tomara met
The nature of a gremlin: they are all liars and are not based in empirical data 3:37
EMPIRICAL DATA: Weirdos who have had lots of success (just to prove to your lizard brain that the gremlin is based on lies, and weird things get success too):
By request from my friend Lizzie who asks: How to deal (or not) with people who don’t get it. It = circus, no longer wanting stability and pleasures of muggle life, wanting to train hard and achieve.
What it can look like when people just don't get it. 3:00
"One half the world cannot understand the pleasures of the other"
Let them misunderstand you. Let them. 5:30
When you choose your boldness and your ambition, you could trigger the fuck out of somebody. 9:00
If you can remember that their disapproval might be built on their own grief/anger/fear for you and your safety, it might be easier to understand them. The good news is, you don't need them to understand you.
"If a person's behavior doesn't make sense to you, it's because you are missing a part of their context." -Devon Price 12:00
Subject #1: UNDERCUTTING. What it is and why it happens. 2:50
Why it doesn't happen in other industries the way it does in the freelance performance gig industry 4:00
Two frustrating truths about how to handle undercutting: 7:00
#1: The ONLY action I can confidently say actually works to confront undercutting in your community is having the conversations with the people doing it.
#2: Why it will continue to happen even if you are having these conversations. 8:30
Ask me how I know (it was me. I was the problem, it's me.) 9:40
The answer to the question- why did I create The Audacity Project? 11:15
What NOT to do about undercutting and wanting to be marketable 13:36
The questions I do recommend asking yourself 15:30
To those who say "I'm afraid of stepping on someone's toes" 17:30
In closing...nearly every industry I observe is built to exploit those who engage with it. We can know that and we can still have excellent lives in integrity 19:30
Creatrix is open to the public! I would love to guide you towards the thing that is most authentic to you as an artist, and teach you some witchcraft while we're at it. 21:30
I've been putting this episode off for a while because it's DENSE. It's a bit of a bite-sized master class in this subject, according to me. All my gratitude to the 100+ artists who have talked with me about this in my career, and especially to TaiTai for asking the question: "How to leave my fucking morning job without having plan B and I still have bills to pay."
What you'll hear:
A question for you: "Why did you get into this/what do you want to get out of it?" 2:00
It's not WORSE. It's just DIFFERENT. 8:50
When you workin, you ain't trainin. Why it's difficult to upskill at the same time you are working 10:23
I highly recommend you buy this book (available on a sliding scale, including for free!) by Andrew Simonet: Making Your Life as an Artist. Scroll down on this page to see the sliding scale options!! 11:00
Ok, after all that and you still want to perform full time, here is some actionable advice 15:00
#1: Have 6-12 months of your living expenses saved (I recommend all humans have 3 months at all times)
#2: All savings accounts should be high yield savings accounts with 3.5% interest or more
#3: Get rid of your credit card debt, it's too expensive 17:50
Get Ramit's book I Will Teach You to be Rich to learn how to do this, and much more cool shit that will help you.
#4: Know your non-negotiables and make good note of them. They will dictate the parameters in which you can explore opportunities.
#5: Find out how much your life cost per month 20:00
Here are some suggested percentages to get you started (they are on the spreadsheet, and you can change them according to your needs):
50% profit/owner's pay goes to you, to pay for groceries, clothing, Netflix, etc.
30% goes to business expenses like training, costumes, travel to gigs, scheduling software, etc. (I just leave this 30% in my business checking account)
5% to all purpose savings (in a high yield savings account of course)
15% to another high yield savings account with which to pay your taxes.
If you need pro help, Sandi York is THE BEST and very familiar with creative businesses. She was the source for the profit first spreadsheet I shared above. 24:44
#7: TALK TO PEOPLE. Use your mentors. Get a mentor. Please do not skip this step. There is no reason whatsoever that you should suffer unnecessarily when we could save you some grief.
#8: Have your shit together (website, bio, demo, headshots, etc)
Creatrix is open to the waitlist! It will open to the public January 20th. You can click here for details and questions are always welcome. You can DM me on Instagram or Patreon. 2:00
full disclosure, there's no plans to hold another Creatrix retreat at this time.
Question from Rachel: why I sign off with "Don't go back to sleep." The story behind it 3:10
Question from Kate: How do you create (and keep) the time you set aside for creative work? If I don't do my morning pages actually in the morning, they get steamrolled by the day. Even when an artist date is scheduled on my calendar I sometimes find myself prioritizing other people (who I love and cherish) over my artist date or morning pages or creative exploration time, etc. 10:00
An experiment you can try next time you have the opportunity to defend your boundaries around your creative time 13:29
Question from Michelle: How to support another artist thru rejection/disappointment? 16:30
What to say to them that could actually be helpful 18:30
What NOT to say lol 20:00
What you can ask when your friend is ready to move forward from the grief stage after a disappointment 21:38

Am I able to ask questions and get answers on safe working conditions?
What our responsibility is FIRST
Do I feel respected when I engage with this organization and/or these individuals? 14:25
Feeling respected and cared for is a somatic experience. Here's an exercise on how to know what that feels like in YOUR body 15:39
My example for this comes from 2024's invitation to speak at BossUp at the invitation of the greats: Dr. Shante Cofiled of The Movement Maestro and Jill Coleman of JillFit

I'll release this first to my Patrons in a couple of weeks, so if you KNOW you want in that's the place to be.
After one week if there's room, I'll release it to the waitlist. I don't expect this to make it to the public, so if you're interested I'd recommend one of these courses of action.

Some post-election musings about staying in the room, and why it's important 2:00
My guest interview for November fell through at the last minute, so I decided to interview myself. I put up an anonymous Question link on the gram, it was only up for around 18 hours so I didn't get many responses, but I am delightedly answering all of them here.
Q 1: Any advice for someone who has gone through life believing they are not a creative person? I've recently accepted that there's no such thing but finding it hard to adjust 7:30

How I "help unstick" people (and why you are almost certainly not stuck...you're scared) 14:10
