Being A Creative Vessel, Faking It Until You Are It, and Tour Life (Andy Frasco Interview)

Have you ever wanted to enhance your creativity?

Today I am joined by musician and creative powerhouse Andy Frasco to discuss how he keeps his creative juices flowing.

For over 15 years Andy has toured as the frontman of Andy Frasco & The U.N. After forming in 2007, the band has released 10 studio albums and toured the world several times. Their newest album Wash, Rinse, Repeat was released in April 2022 and their current world tour is taking place through 2023. In addition to music, Andy also hosts Andy Frasco’s World Saving Podcast, a weekly podcast that focuses on the adventure life brings to those who dare to pursue their dreams and travel.

As someone who has made a living based on creativity and travel for many years, Andy knows a thing or two about keeping the creative fire alive and fighting off imposter syndrome. Tune in to this week's episode to learn all about how Andy approaches the creative process, his favorite cities to visit on tour, how to move past self-imposed constraints, and so much more.

Do you have experience creating your own DIY mindset? I'd love to hear about it and hope you will share by sending me an audio message.
