STUDIO VIBES
What happens when we abandon the artifice and superficial bullshit as artists, writers, and creative problem solvers? All that remains is the naked, authentic soul in the mirror. Maybe, just maybe, that is where we find our best work. I hope my practice offers you refuge. A safe place to be yourself and unshackle your voice. Welcome to Bobby Ford Studios.
I have spent countless hours in post-production houses. From making TV ads to producing podcasts. Creating radio spots to editing a short film. Sinking into a collaborative space is liberating. Invigorating. Anything is possible! Creators coming together to bring a vision to life. That’s my soul food.
Bobby Ford Studios is home to my work as a writer, creator, artist, and the deeply human work I do with creative minds. But ultimately, my work is about making the world a better, more humane place. Creative minds can change the world. You. Me. All of is together. And now more than ever, we need progressive creative minds.
A podcast explores the profoundly human journey of being a creative mind. I publish 4-6 episodes a month that lead to soul-searching, clarifying your voice, creative rediscovery, healing, and stretching your wings as a creative mind.
Creative entrepreneurs, designers, agency owners, B corps, artists, writers, filmmakers, conscious capitalists, progressive activists, coaches, freelancers, and anyone who is hungry to unshackle their voice and level up their impact.
As my podcast grows, I will upgrade my gear and bring in an expert to build a badass home studio. Once that’s complete, late 2025 I am guessing, I will add one creator interview a month to the mix. No celebrities. Just ordinary creative minds across multiple disciplines that make a difference. Real people and real conversations.

FOUR LIFE LESSONS
In 2022, I decided to self-publish a book. What an ordeal that turned out to be! It took two years and 38,000 words to write. Every ounce of my being bled onto the page. It was never my goal to become famous or publish a bestseller. But I needed my words to matter because I needed my story to matter. It was a hard fall.
How to describe the experience? It was the most soul-crushing failure of my career, but it also was intoxicating. The process. The journey. Life lessons with heft, poetically etched. I left it all on the page. People loved the writing, but the structure was a hot mess. Still, four of the eight chapters rose from the ashes and spoke to people on a rather deep level. I offer them below. May they speak to you, too.
I would love to connect with you on the “Our Cohort” page! Drop by and introduce yourself. What are you passionate about these days? What are your struggling with as a creative soul and human being?
With kind regards,
Bobby Ford
