Welcome to Flex Your Heart Radio! This podcast is about body, fat and gender positivity, fitness, feminism, recovery, risk, and crushing it at life.
On this episode we talk to cartoonist, radio maven, and productivity expert, Jessica Abel!
Jessica Abel is the author of Growing Gills: How to Find Creative Focus When You're Drowning in Your Daily Life , the graphic novel La Perdida (winner of the the 2002 “Best New Series” Harvey Award), Trish Trash: Rollergirl of Mars, as well as two collections of stories from her omnibus comic book Artbabe, and the graphic documentary (and podcast), Out on the Wire, about how the best radio producers in the world use story to keep us listening.
Abel and her husband, the cartoonist Matt Madden, were series editors for The Best American Comics from 2007 to 2013. Together they’ve authored two textbooks about making comics, Drawing Words & Writing Pictures and Mastering Comics. Her latest comics series, Trish Trash: Rollergirl of Mars, debuted in November 2016. Abel recently returned from a four-year residency at the Maison des Auteurs in Angoulême, France to take up the chair of the Illustration Program at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. She lives with her family in Philadelphia.
In this podcast we discuss:
- Working your creative practice into your busy life, no matter what!
- Procrastination and anxiety, and how the two are intertwined
- The importance of having one solitary big goal
- Saying no to things that don't help you say yes to your larger purpose
and so much more!
