Today on Humans Helping Humans:

Welcome to the Bonus Episode of HHH! This is my first EVER interview . Ash Nash and Fabian Williams were kind enough to give me a chance to interview Fabian! You’ll hear what a first-time episode sounds like, you might hear some thuds and click-clacking in the background. (that’s my cat Nova pounding the door and my dog Gigi being intrusive during the interview. On some of the hardest nights when I worked on the ambulance running emergency calls I often felt helpless and close to breaking down but Fabian’s work was constantly inspiring and helped me keep my head up! That is why he was my first choice and he was generous enough to say yes. You may be wondering why it isn’t as long as the others, well Fabian and I had such a great time that for about an hour and a half we were literally just having a conversation from Aliens to all of Martin Luther King’s valiant efforts and then I realized I barely asked my questions. I want Humans Helping Humans to be a space where you listen to these inspiring everyday people who saw a need and are still on the journey of fulfilling that need. They aren’t finished with what they are doing, the fight for good is a never-ending battle. I want you, the listener, to get inspired, learn from their experience and tips, and either donate or volunteer to these people and organizations. I want you to go out and do some good and realize you don’t have to be perfect or have all the knowledge in the world to make a difference. You are probably curious as to why Atlanta? I chose Atlanta because first and foremost it is my home as I watch the news every day, I just see bad news after bad news. I want to see more good news and with that being said I hope you can join my HHH Volunteer team and be part of the good news. I dream of a future where there is constantly good news being reported while there is a short segment of bad news.

We are going to find out why Fabian Williams paints these figures and what it takes to be an artist of his caliber and more in this episode! You are going to get some tips on how to be a full-time artist. He is going to tell you why he chose to be a full-time artist rather than staying in corporate America. His methodology will be explained in this episode of HHH.

Thanks again for listening!
