What Could Be Bad: Episode 110 Creative Community with Steph Johnson

Filming at Studio West in San Diego California, CEO and Creative Director of Voices of Our City Choir, Steph Johnson connects with Benj Gershman for a meaningful discussion. Steph's artistic path collided with her calling to be of service to others when she brought the creative initiative to life. San Diego's unsheltered homeless choir receives resources, support, purpose and dignity from the community effort - all while Steph put her own personal career on pause for this higher purpose. The demands of this endeavor touched all sides in all ways while she learned the hard way about how to balance what her community needed, and needs, with what she can provide in maintaining form and function. The learning goes both ways as Benj sees himself in her efforts with how this current podcast project has pulled at him in various capacities. Enjoy these two new friends connecting with one another and taking a moment out of their lives to help one another understand and tell their unique stories.
