Siena Facciolo
I’m Siena. I’m a creative human - a musician, artist, and teacher. I’m here because I have Big Questions. How do we build a creative life? What keeps us going? What does our daily process tell us about ourselves? This podcast offers honest conversations between artists that reveal the strength, challenges, purpose, vulnerability and joy of living a creative life. These conversations offer a space for you to feel less alone, and to gather inspiration for your own life. New conversations every second Wednesday of the month.
