The Magic of The Meme with James McCrae
This week’s guest is author, poet, creative strategist (and meme artist!), James McCrae whose content on Instagram I absolutely love.

Shi*t Your Ego Says w/ Author James McCrae
If you’ve listened to this podcast before, you’ll be familiar with the idea that fear, judgement and ego are the big three facilitators of the undue anxieties we all encounter in our daily lives.

James McCrae, author of SH&T YOUR EGO SAYS talks "writing to live" and getting published by Hay House
