Enter the vibrant world of Artishi – a dynamic force in Tampa Bay's creative scene who's redefining what it means to be authentically yourself as an artist. In this captivating conversation, we dive deep into the journey of a multi-talented creator who's been crafting words and melodies since the tender age of five.
Artishy reveals the fascinating story behind her podcast "Shi Speaks" and her mission to create what she calls "safe spaces to fix your face" – environments where people can be vulnerable, grow, and transform without judgment. Her concept of "goal friends" – supportive circles that celebrate your wins rather than competing with them – provides a refreshing perspective on building meaningful relationships in creative industries.
The conversation takes unexpected turns as Artishi performs snippets of her songs "Soon" and "We Swinging," demonstrating her versatile musical style that blends nostalgic 90s vibes with contemporary sensibilities. Her track "We Swinging" carries a powerful message beneath its catchy exterior: "As long as you're up to bat, they can never count you out" – a mantra for perseverance that resonates throughout her work.
What truly sets this episode apart is Artishi's candid discussion about the struggles of perfectionism as a creative entrepreneur. Her confession about finding it difficult to delegate and her tendency to rework projects until they meet her exacting standards will strike a chord with anyone who's ever struggled to call a creative project "finished." The advice shared – that sometimes 70% perfect is good enough – offers liberation for creators trapped in cycles of endless revision.
Whether you're an aspiring musician, podcast host, or simply someone seeking to live more authentically, Artishi's journey from childhood performer to multi-platform creator offers valuable insights on finding your voice and using it to connect with others.
