Find your pallet, because if you gave me a basketball or a microphone, I'm not going to change the world like LeBron or Beyoncé. And if I gave them a pallet, they're not going to change the world. But it takes finding that thing that itches, that part in your soul that makes you come alive and help other people and bring light to the world. - Ike Wynter

If you're feeling stuck in a job that doesn't fulfill you, then you are not alone! The pressure to find your true calling can be overwhelming, but what if I told you there's an opportunity in every curiosity? Imagine turning someone else's trash into a meaningful piece of art and brightening their day. It's not about New Year's resolutions, it's about living with intention and finding your palette in life. Your next stop could be the start of a whole new journey.

In this episode, you will be able to:

  • Unleash your potential by turning your passion into a fulfilling career.

  • Discover the transformative impact of art on mental well-being.

  • Cultivate an entrepreneurial mindset and unleash your creativity for success.

  • Explore the possibilities of finding fulfillment beyond the constraints of 9 to 5 jobs.

  • Elevate your personal growth by understanding the importance of self-awareness.

My special guest is Ike Wynter.

Ike Wynter is an eco-sustainable wood artist born & raised in Milwaukee, WI. His claim to fame in the wood art world is that he uses 100% reclaimed wood but furthermore has never stained or painted a piece of wood in his life - creating an additional challenge within his work to find all the colors he uses in his pieces. He gathered the attention of numerous celebrities and brands early on with his story, and now has curated a very dedicated fanbase of 300,000 followers on social media who have watched his journey of knowing nothing about the art world to now making pieces of art for people like Mike Tyson, Mrs. Meyers Brands, Kyle Walker, and many others. His relentless passion for his craft and "delusionally optimistic" spirit is seen daily within his content, and he inspires millions around the world to not only pursue the greatest versions of themselves but the simple daily reminders of just waking up with gratitude & optimism everyday. All of his work is made exclusively in Milwaukee and crafted from things that the community throws out, and he also has a huge initiative to build up the awareness of our city globally through his art and live events.
