Ashes to Architects is a podcast about mental health, creativity, and rebuilding your life when the odds aren’t in your favor.
In this short trailer, host Brian Cartier lays out the mission: if you’ve grown up surrounded by limitations—environment, trauma, setbacks, or simply being underestimated—your future isn’t decided by your past unless you accept that story as fact. This show is built for underdogs: real conversations, real experiences, and practical strategy you can actually use.
Ashes to Architects is where stories meet strategy—so you can turn losses into lessons and start building better outcomes.
Topics you’ll hear in this show:
• mindset, self-belief, and breaking limiting narratives
• mental health, trauma, and resilience without the cheesy motivation
• creativity, identity, and building a life you’re proud of
• lessons from people who beat the odds (and experts who help you do it)
• practical tools: habits, frameworks, and perspective shifts that work
