Creative Confessionals
28 DEC 2020 · Last summer, Mina and I had the great pleasure of speaking with Yvonne
Montoya, a Tucson-based dancer scholar, director, and consultant. This
episode — which is long-overdue — was one of the most personally meaningful
episodes for me. Because of that, I felt an overwhelming pressure to make
sure it was perfect… and that eventually evolved into inexcusable delay and
procrastination.
So, at long last, here is the last episode of Creative Confessionals!

1 OCT 2018 · Eunique Yazzie’s journey toward recognizing her value as a designer hasn’t been easy. Growing up on the reservation and facing several layoffs early in her design career taught her how to live off little. So when she was finally ready to launch her own business, she learned that she didn’t know her value the hard way. And although she eventually made the decision to accept a salaried position rather than struggle with the insufficient income she was making through design projects, she doesn’t consider it to be a failure. Eunique has been able to overcome challenges that would easily cause others to call it quits. She’s lost a job while pregnant, persevered through the digital takeover of the publishing industry, and she wasn’t afraid to resign from a job when it wasn’t taking her on own right path. Though it all, she’s found personal growth and has held on to her mission: to make sure Native stories are heard and respected in Phoenix and beyond. Listen to this episode to learn about how Eunique is supporting her community through art and design, plus a lot more!
