Episode description

“I don’t get out of bed every morning to f*cking click all my Asana tasks.”. If you’ve been feeling a sense of purposelessness in your work and resonate with that quote, you’re going to ABSOLUTELY love today’s episode. Janne Robinson is a 21st-century feminist beat poet, coach, and shares slabs of her heart with the world for a living . Her voice haunts with the legacy of early feminists and poets such as Gloria Steinem, Charles Bukowski, and Jack Kerouac. Her ability to capture the human experience with unrefined sincerity makes her an incredible force in the modern landscape of personal expression. Robinson’s foray into directing and the multimedia world was in directing a spoken word poetry film in NYC involving 18 women reading the lines from her poem, “This Is For The Women Who Don’t Give a Fuck.” The film was a viral sensation online and was nominated for the 2016 Cannes Corporate Media & TV Awards. One of the most impactful topics we discuss is the topic of “creative loafing” and why it’s necessary to create great work.
