Season 2: Episode 2
Courting Creativity with Caitlin Brehm
Have you ever wondered about the roots and origins of our most beloved fairytales?
If you have, you understand the driving force behind Caitlin Brehm's passion project, Roots of Lore.
Caitlin is an entrepreneur who offers business operations and podcast support to other entrepreneurs. She's also a writer and a lifelong lover of words and stories which led her to the creation of her passion project, a Roots of Lore.
Roots of Lore explores the roots and origins of fairytales to ponder the messages and the lessons that we can learn from them today.
In this episode Kate and Tasha chat with Caitlin about:
- The creative spark that birthed the podcast
- The amount of research that goes into each episode
- How to know when to stop researching and start writing (and they also learned a new word: procrasturbating which is what happens when you're doing writing related things, but not actually writing)
- A mini-coaching where Kate and Tasha tell Caitlin to just write!
- And vaginas
