One Grammy Song of the Year, ten Tony Award nominations, and over two hundred recorded songs by artists we all know and love.

But underneath Songwriter Hall of Fame member Wayne Kirkpatrick’s impressive résumé is a mindset that’s a true masterclass in long-haul creativity. In this episode, Wayne gives us a peek under the hood at the values and habits that have kept his songwriter engine running for decades.

What’s especially compelling is how he deals with obstacles. Like water, Wayne finds ways to flow around what might stop other creatives in their tracks.

This re-release of Part One is the beginning of a rich, two-part conversation that feels like sitting in on a masterclass—not just in songwriting, but in the creative life itself.
