  • UNIVERSITY WAS A WASTE OF $40K

    UNIVERSITY WAS A WASTE OF $40K
    2026/08/16
    In this episode, I get honest about my university experience, and why, looking back, it feels like years I'll never get back. I dig into what it was like studying art in a system that never seemed to actually value it, and how that shaped the way I saw my own work for a long time after. I also share the story behind my shift from nature, event, and family photography into commercial photography because I got tired of feeling like my range and abilities weren't being recognised. It's a candid look at creative self-worth, reinvention, and figuring out where you actually belong.

    Episode 3: I'm Sober, and Yes, It Was a Problem. In this episode, I get honest about sobriety, what got me there, and why admitting it was a problem took far longer than it should have. This one's raw, it's real, and it's a part of my story I haven't spoken about publicly until now.

  • Stridemade: Building a Legacy

    Stridemade: Building a Legacy
    2026/07/15
    Welcome to the very first episode of Stridemade podcast, the podcast by Stride Made where we dive into everything from the creative industry and running a business to disability, chronic illness, mental health, and life itself. In this introductory episode, host Amy Carlon opens up about her journey as the founder of Stride Made and Carlon & Co, a photography and videography business she's been running for over 12 years. With refreshing honesty, Amy shares what you can expect from this podcast: real conversations, authentic stories, and a community built on shared experiences. Amy's Story Born with a disability called distal arthrogriposis syndrome, Amy spent much of her childhood in hospitals undergoing surgeries so she could walk. She used a wheelchair on and off until age 20, and now at almost 31, she has a wealth of stories and experiences to share. From navigating the creative industry with a disability to receiving a bipolar diagnosis just three years ago, Amy's journey has been anything but conventional. What This Podcast Is About This isn't a lecture or a how to guide. Amy's approach is simple: let the story be the lesson. Whether you take away valuable insights or just enjoy a good laugh, every episode will be a genuine conversation about the realities of building a life and business while navigating significant health challenges. Creating a Legacy Following a recent rebrand of Carlon & Co, Amy's focus is on creating a legacy and making something meaningful from the life she's been given. This podcast is an extension of that mission, offering a new outlet to share stories, build community, and hopefully make an impact. Join Amy as she kicks off this journey of sharing her strides, struggles, and successes with authenticity and heart.
