  <title>Seeking Authenticity &amp;amp; Pursuing a Path of Joy with Audrey Hall</title>
  <description>Today we have the great pleasure of talking with Audrey Hall - who started taking photos in 1991 and since then has created a full career including being an artist, commercial photographer, and now the scariest thing yet for her, music. After experiencing severe burnout and losing &amp;quot;my passion for what I do&amp;quot;, Audrey pursued &amp;quot;a path of joy&amp;quot;, trying many different new things. Music was the thing that stuck. She talks with us about how scary it is to be a beginner at something after having proficiency in another craft.&amp;amp;nbsp; She shares a hilarious story about how even her friend and neighbor Jeff Bridges gets nervous, but, in his words, &amp;quot;the experience makes it all worth it.&amp;quot; Audrey smartly shares that, &amp;quot;It's okay to be afraid,&amp;quot; and explains how nerve is a great tool to keep you present and paying attention. We discuss how, as a culture, we are encouraged to specialize and master ONE thing, but as Audrey points out - &amp;quot;people have depth.&amp;quot; She describes the journey she's been on with creating music and asking herself, &amp;quot;How can I be most authentically me? And how do I put that into the world?&amp;quot; We also discuss masculine vs feminine energy and not indulging the culture of &amp;quot;busy&amp;quot;, and Audrey gives great advice to any one looking to transition out of their 9-5. Audrey advises surrounding yourself with people better than you and says, &amp;quot;Making art is one of the bravest things you can do.&amp;quot; If you love this episode, will you please take a second to rate and review the podcast? ---------------- Connect with us online! https://www.facebook.com/doingscarythings/ &amp;amp;nbsp; https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7wZ63VjnGKLlU50_59ksjg &amp;amp;nbsp; Email us!&amp;amp;nbsp;doingscarythingspod@gmail.com &amp;amp;nbsp; Instagram:&amp;amp;nbsp;@doingscarythings @thekatiesnyder @annaesthetic23&amp;amp;nbsp; #doingscarythings &amp;amp;nbsp; Schedule your Free Coaching Consultation with Katie! </description>
