48 min • 23 oktober 2023

Creative Status is a podcast about using creativity as a vehicle for improving your life by deconstructing ego, integrating the shadow self, and designing and manifesting a real life.

Every episode explores how the creative process can help you GROW REAL by moving towards wholeness in yourself by making the unconscious conscious.

Join us for a captivating journey on this episode of Creative Status as we explore the profound connections between yoga, storytelling, and the pursuit of union and harmony.

Darius Wallace, is a multi-talented, very REAL human being whose life's story is a testament to transformation and the boundless possibilities of the human spirit revealed through storytelling. He's an actor, public speaker, and coach who helps people to find their real voice and stay grounded in the stories that can serve them instead of holding them back.

With a rich background in Hollywood movies, a founding company membership with Tennessee Shakespeare Company, and a unique ability to bring history to life as Frederick Douglass with his successful one-man show, Darius is a man who walks the walk.

Born in Flint, Michigan, during a challenging period of economic upheaval, he experienced the tough streets of Flint as a teenager, becoming involved in a street gang. However, a miraculous intervention, offered by his high school's Vice Principal, presented him with a choice – the destiny of jail or the destiny of his dream.

Darius chose the latter, embarking on a transformative path when introduced to his high school theater teacher, who revealed the transformative power of storytelling and communication through acting.

In this episode, we delve deep into Darius's philosophy exploring the powerful threads of yoga and storytelling that have woven their way through his personal journey.

Discover how these two seemingly distinct disciplines are, in reality, about union and the realization of oneness and harmony, ultimately illuminating the beauty of transformation and the human spirit's capacity to overcome adversity.

Tune in to this episode Creative Status for a profound conversation with Darius Wallace, where stories, yoga, and the pursuit of harmony come together to inspire and enlighten you to be more REAL in your own life.

This is a thought-provoking exploration of life's incredible possibilities that will leave you energised, hyped up, and ready to go!

Thanks a bunch,

Oli
