Look in Your Pocket: Finding the Key Within (with Adam Crist)

 
Adam Crist

Artist Adam Crist joins The Artist Is In for a grounded, heart-forward conversation about what it really means to become. For Adam, becoming isn’t about becoming someone new—it’s a returning to who he always wanted to be. We slow down together and notice the small moments in nature that recalibrate our pace, talk about rewriting the fear-and-self-doubt stories we tell ourselves, and name the hard truth: you can’t go around it—you have to work through it. Along the way, Adam keeps pointing us back to agency and inner wisdom: look in your pocket, because the key is already within you.

We talk about:

  • Becoming as a returning—remembering your truest self

  • Slowing down and letting nature reset your rhythm

  • Spotting (and softening) the fear/self-doubt narratives

  • Why avoidance stalls growth—and how to work through instead

  • Small, sustainable practices that build courage and momentum

  • Trusting your inner compass: the key is in your pocket

New episodes drop every other Thursday.
