About this listen

 Why be just *a* guy when you could be "THE Guy"? This is the central question of NOT JUST A GUY, THE show that spotlights the struggles of storytellers. Host Garrett Briones, a struggling storyteller in his own right, dives into the ups and downs of trying to make it as a hungry creative in the modern landscape and the toll that can take on your wellbeing. Joined by co-host and editor extraordinaire, Emily Briones, the podcast looks to crack the code on what it means to "make it" and hone in on why we put up with the struggles to tell our stories.Copyright 2025 Art Hygiene & Healthy Living Psychology Psychology & Mental Health

    On Rejections & Resumes
    Jun 19 2025

    Rejections: we all know the feeling of them too well. Resumes: many of us have had to make them time and time again. How do the two go hand in hand? And how do we not let either of them define us? "THE Guy" Garrett and Emily talk about jobs they were sure they had (but didn't end up getting), ways to show who you are beyond a piece of paper with your accomplishments, and not defining your self worth on whether someone chooses you or not.
