    About My Conversations with Creatives:

    Inspired by the many conversations, we are BACK for our second season! Still hosted by CEO & Founder Imani Evora but this time with a new vision, new insights and new perspectives. Since Season I, I have sat down with dozens of creatives having groundbreaking conversations about what it means to truly be a professional maker in the world. To make sure this podcast serves all facets of the creative life, We Are Made Studios has created its very own podcast network featuring our sister series We Are Made podcast. Our new black creatives series.

    So think of this podcast as a compliment to our network, while here we will dive deeper into the topics at hand and have plenty of time and space to do so. My Conversations with Creatives Season II is here!
