Hi Creative! Today It's a BEST OF Unleash, with a brand new intro containing some insights on choosing ease, a thank you for FOUR YEARS of Unleash, thoughts on why your creative projects are like a time capsule, as well as insight on why I chose this episode to re-air. It's my conversation with comedian and friend of the show, Brittany Brave! Original Description below!

CW: Domestic Violence

Brittany Brave is a New York City-based comedian who has been featured on TBS, MTV, The New York Times, ELLE and was named a Best New Talent by the New York Comedy Festival in 2019. She is also the founder of We are Cat Call, a platform for women’s leadership, progress and camaraderie that does female-focused events for all. I wanted to have Brittany on the show because we are really kindred spirits and have a similar path -both Italian Catholic, both only children both huge champions of fellow women and creatives. Brittany started her professional career in PR and did comedy on the side, but her true passion was always calling her. However, it wasn’t until she found herself in a situation of domestic violence that she truly started owning her creativity as a way of admitting what was going on and taking charge of her life again. From Brittany, you will truly learn creativity’s ability to not only help, but even save your life.
