The Unmistakable Creative Podcast

Permission to Launch with Amy Clover

The Unmistakable Creative Podcast

A few weeks ago, I ran into my good friend Amy Clover at New Media Expo. One of the first questions that always seems to come up is, "So have you been a guest on Srini's show?" and Amy replied "I haven't been asked yet" with a smile. The whole thing turned into a joke about what it takes to get on BlogcastFM. You don't have to cure cancer (which I'm working on so I can speak at TEDx.) Then Amy showed me her project for 2013 and I was blown away by it. So I immediately invited her to make an appearance. This is a very important episode because I believe the work Amy is doing will help so many people. We've all been through dark times in our lives and for some people it nearly broke them beyond repair. We've got an opportunity as content creators and people with a voice to help them.  So more important than sharing this interview, please do everything you can to raise awareness of Amy's cause.
