Podcast Overview

There are the stories we tell to the world. And there are the stories that led us there, that remain in our hearts, quietly guarded. Behind the most imaginative and evocative stories are the creative humans leading lives of inspiration, empowerment, and authenticity, often the foundation for bringing such creative storytelling to life. Chasing Artists with XENJA brings to you the stories of these creative beings, whose work can invoke palpable connective emotions to uniting fans around the world to cult followings. Join your host XENJA, writer, independent music artist, and creative soul, weekly as she dives behind the scenes of the incredible real-world creatives of today, tomorrow, and yesterday. What journeys led them to where they are now? How have their experiences influenced their creative works? What messages delve beyond the stories they’ve brought to life? YOU are invited to connect with XENJA and her guests through their courageous and vulnerable storytelling, to encourage the inner light already inside of you to be your guide, and to discover the journey that is right there waiting for you to bring it to life.
