"Follow your own passion—not your parents', not your teachers'—yours."—Robert Ballard
Great Escape Radio host, Jody Maberry is joined by Bonnie Caton to discuss making art for a living.
Bonnie has always loved art and was one of those kids in school who couldn't wait for art day. But it took her a while to realize she could use her passion for art to make a living. She was told she should follow a "safe route" and study something "normal."
When she discovered Great Escape Publishing and attended a photography workshop, she began to realize she could make a living as an artist—despite what others may say.
Listen in as Bonnie shares her story and offers advice and encouragement to anyone currently in a "safe" career that really wants to change direction and make a living from art or another creative endeavor.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
