There's been a lie that has been going on for centuries when it comes to people who are

creatives, who are multi-passionates, who are innovators, who think way outside the box.

I'm talking my artists, my performers, my writers, where, yeah, you could do that for a living,

It's not very serious. In fact, people won't take you seriously. You may have been told

its luster for me, then I'll lose my creative edge. None of that has to be true unless you make

that to be true. And if you're familiar with Kesha, I'm an OG Kesha fan. I mean, Kesha even

said about her. I was entranced by you. And we're going to play a clip of one of her latest songs,

and you will see very quickly what I'm talking about. She has a very unconventional childhood. She
