12/15/21 • 38 min
Golden Landis Von Jones - AKA 24kGoldn - is a hip-hop and R&B artist who has racked up over a billion plays on Spotify all before celebrating his 21st birthday. His remarkable success comes down to what he describes as ‘delusional confidence’ and cracking the SoundCloud game back in high school. But, in achieving wild success, Golden has had to confront an entirely new landscape, which includes uncomfortable feelings of imposter syndrome and anxiety, and what's next in the pipeline.

Elladj Baldé: Let it go
Driven Minds: A Type 7 Podcast presented by Gillian Sagansky
10/27/21 • 40 min
Elladj Balde is a Guinean Russian professional figure skater who has traded in a conventional career for wild ice skating routines - i.e. back flips and dance moves you normally see on land. He has amassed over a million followers across Tik Tok and Instagram for his infectious videos which turn ice skating on its head. But in finding his path, Elladj has battled racism, undiagnosed ADHD, show stopping injuries, and an inner journey in which he learned to accept himself on his own terms.

Richie Hawtin: Disappearing into the music
Driven Minds: A Type 7 Podcast presented by Gillian Sagansky
11/10/21 • 40 min
This week we talk to the iconic techno musician Richie Hawtin, who never plans his live performances. He crafted his dark, rhythmic tracks in the early days of Detroit’s techno scene and today collaborates with artists and designers, such as Anish Kapoor and Raf Simmons. His journey to mastering his craft required him to confront his shy, introverted nature, find routines to stave off nerves that could derail his performances, and nurture his energy flow.
