302 Francesca Hoffman “Musician, Event Producer, Unicorn Bar”

Today on the show I get to chat with Francesca Hoffman, a multi-instrumentalist, singer, event producer and entrepreneur based in Kingston, who is currently in the process of opening her new queer-forward performance venue & bar called Unicorn Bar (formerly The Beverly Lounge).

 

A classically trained flutist and self-taught guitarist, ukulele player and percussionist, she is also a co-founder of Hudson Valley-based brass band, Brasskill and the Hudson Valley Brassroots Festival, a member of both The Goddess Party and Eva Salina’s Eastern European choir, and the parade coordinator for the O+ Festival.

Francesca talks about how music entered her life, and how her relationship with it has evolved including how it has impacted her own personal evolution… finding her confidence, surrendering, letting go of control, and taking care of herself.

Catch her performing her original songs live with support from pianist/accordionist Meghan Quinn on Dec. 17 at @vosburghbrewing and Jan. 5 at Tilda’s…and with the Eastern European Choir on Dec. 9th.

Happy 40th Birthday Francesca!

300 Spirituality and Politics with Marielena Ferrer “Open Mindedness”

It’s Politics and Spirituality with Theresa and Marielena Ferrer. This month we’re talking about open mindedness inspired by this NPR article on the same subject. Here’s the Implicit Association Test that was mentioned during our conversation. Prior to jumping into this subject we do revisit the subject of money following up from my conversation with Beth Bengtson from Working for Women about their screening of the film $AVVY.

Happy New Moon! Here’s the report I read from that was very much aligned with our conversation about open mindedness.

Today’s show was engineered by Ian Seda of Radio Kingston.

299 Tracy Sayre “Moonshot Initiative”

Today I am joined by Tracy Sayre, co-founder of Moonshot Initiative (formerly Women’s Weekend Film Challenge) who helps thousands of women build networks and break down barriers in the film and television industries. Through Moonshot, Tracy has produced nearly 40 short films. She is an award-winning screenwriter and wrote and produced “Lily + Mara” with her writing partner, Caroline Roberts (AP of “The Little Mermaid”), which screened on PBS and had its world premiere at the Rhode Island International Film Festival. Tracy lives in Kingston with her husband and two daughters. She is an avid reader and loves weightlifting.

Tracy shares about how Moonshot Initiative was born and the work they now do including their pilot accelerator program, their signature weekend film challenge, and monthly virtual workshops featuring prominent film and TV professionals. Tracy is a panelist for HERSTORY, an evening of conversation and networking with others in the film and television industry here in the Hudson Valley. It’s all taking place on Tuesday, November 7th at 6:30 pm at the Rosendale Theater.

In the spirit of the Moon and because it is my “religion,” I share thoughts on our Moon Signs inspired by the book, The Moon Sign Guide by Annabel Gat and then some thoughts about the New Moon from Sarah Faith Gottesdiener’s The Moon Book. The New Moon is coming up this Mo(0)nday, so time to start thinking about your ritual!
