Creative Rebels

Creative Rebels is on mid season break but here is a bonus episode, as I was lucky enough to jump on a substack live with the amazing Seth Werkheiser from Social Media Escape Club.
We spoke about mailing lists, in person meet ups, making art outside and the truth about going ‘viral’.

Thank you mary beth kaplan🪶, Joi, Francesca Bossert, Fi Cooper, Gary Spetzler, and many others for tuning into my live video with Seth Werkheiser! Join me for my next live video in the app.

This week is a special Q&A episode. I answer your questions and worries about social media, ‘content’, galleries, failures, doom scrolling and the freedom of creative discipline.
I hope this fires you up for 2026!
Make stuff.
Put it out.
You’re capable of more than you think.

Gabriel DeSanti is building the world’s longest resume.
He has worked as a mural painter, a delivery driver, a dog walker, a wedding dress designer, a wiener-man and lots more.
Each week he goes to work with someone new, films it and the resulting videos have had millions of views.
We talk about the people he’s met, content creation and how long it took to finally ‘make it’.
