Meet Kristina Courage! She's the owner of two businesses BESTEA and Grit Life Fitness. In this conversation we chat about growing up in Pennsylvania and Massachusetts, her path to fitness and personal training, lessons from working with real people, not just textbooks, how she changed her views on nutrition and nourishment, how that led to her making her own tea, and how the Watertown community has played a big role in the growth of BESTEA.

As part of the Creative Chats live podcast event series, I sat down at the Mosesian Center for the Arts for a conversation with artist and gallery owner Ellen Wineberg. We discuss curation from many angles: choosing the artwork for shows, solving the puzzle of hanging the art in a way that the pieces are in conversation with each other, matchmaking pairings and groupings of artists, and learning to bring out the character in her unique space. We also get a glimpse into the community she's created with Storefront Art Projects and hear about her broader perspective on curation beyond the gallery walls.

Find out more about the shows Ellen has coming up at Storefront Art Projects at StorefrontArtProjects.com.
