End Times Art Club

Welcome to End Times Art Club, a new chapter for the podcast formerly known as Coaches Don’t Play. In this first episode, I share the story behind the rebrand and introduce a new direction: art + conversation. We’re starting with junk journaling, what inspired this shift, life updates since my last upload, and what to expect from future episodes. What kind of guests or art forms would you like to see? How do you deal with the pressure to be consistent or "productive" in creative work?

Last summer, Yashmitha, Cole, and I dove into the messy world of modern dating. We unraveled the meaning of situationships and explored why relationship limbo has become so prevalent. We also had a fun conversation on the statement "men ain't shit." Does it allow men to get away with anything? Join the conversation by sharing your thoughts! .

This time around, I’m joined by Yashmitha, and we’re discussing mindfulness. From the obstacles that come in the way of practicing mindfulness to stepping outside your comfort zone.
