Who We Are

Musings Behind the Creative is a podcast that dives into the untold stories, raw thoughts, and intimate reflections of multicultural creatives. Hosted by Renata Dickson-Nwosu, an architect, artist, and cultural researcher, the series explores what it truly means to build, imagine, and survive within — and beyond — creative industries.

What We Explore

Each episode unpacks:

  • Things we wish we knew before starting creative careers

  • Navigating design, identity, and survival as multicultural creative artists

  • Cultural inheritance, spirituality, and mental health

  • The beauty and the burnout behind the work

Why It Matters

This isn’t a highlight reel.
It’s a space for pause, for honesty, for calling things by their name.
It’s about truth-telling, not just trend-chasing.

Whether you’re a student, emerging creative, or seasoned practitioner, these are conversations that resonate — personally and politically.
