The path to success is rarely a straight line. And the path to success as a creative professional? That line tends to be especially squiggly. In the new series, Journey of an Artist, singer-songwriter and poet, Emmeline, talks to creatives from all walks of life about their passions, their paths, and the persistence they’ve employed to reach a point of professional and personal fulfillment. Emmeline sits down with voice actors, poets, dancers, musicians, graphic designers, stylists, and more to discuss the decisions they’ve made, the challenges they’ve faced, the obstacles they’ve overcome, and where they’d like their vision to take them next. She also reinforces the belief that—with love, grit, perseverance, and an abundance of joy—anything is possible.You can live the life you want, the life that brings you the most joy, and Emmeline's guests are living proof. Episodes air most Sundays at 12 PM CST on Deep Ellum Radio. For behind-the-scenes information and insights, follow Emmelin

Turning Spiritual Weakness & Vulnerability into Creative Strengths with Christian Cohle
Sep 28, 20261h 17mS2
Send us Fan Mail "I was looking for love in so many places." Getting real in your art often means getting real with yourself--and the best, most beautiful and hard-hitting art can come from the realest, darkest spaces. Irish alt-pop artist Christian Cohle knows this truth intimately. In this episode, Emmeline sits down with Christian Cohle for an intensely personal and thoughtful conversation about his brave new record, Queen of Ashes . Christian shares about the process of self-discovery that inspired the album, addiction, love, the way we distract ourselves from spiritual growth, and how his musical curiosity ran parallel to his spiritual curiosity. Christian and Emmeline also discuss the ways in which true love requires constant attention to self-improvement--and how the ones we love are always pressing our buttons and forcing us to grow. Love, life, art--it's all a grand invitation to which we choose to say yes. You can also get a sneak peek of three songs from Christian's new record--"Life with Lucy," "Venus," and "Queen of Ashes." Christian even talks about why Conversations on Love is his favorite book right now!
