Harnessing Intuition with Artist, Educator and Intuitive Rachel Dawson + Paranormal in Sedona

Harnessing Intuition with Artist, Educator and Intuitive Rachel Dawson + Paranormal in Sedona

This week Sarah talks with friend of the show, Rachel Dawson. Rachel shares the way her connection to her intuition has evolved throughout her life.


About Rachel Dawson

Rachel Dawson is an artist, educator, and intuitive located in Oakland, CA. She makes connections between her artistic practice and metaphysical processes, seeking to render the invisible visible and to materialize the immaterial. She is interested in how spiritual wellness practices are attached to a “feminine” space, such as the history of witchcraft and its connection to agency, medicines, and

power objects. As an artist, she sees her role as a medium within the feminized space of her intuitive practice and the process of art-making.


Raised in Southern California, she has spent the last two decades in the San Francisco Bay Area. When she is not in the studio making art, she is teaching art to gifted middle school and high school students. She received her MFA from the California College of the Arts in San Francisco, after she received her BFA in Painting and Drawing from the University of San Francisco. Her work has been

exhibited in the US, Mexico, and Canada.

On Building An Art Career After Bankruptcy With Artist Kelly Lynn Jones + A Ghost Story

On Building An Art Career After Bankruptcy With Artist Kelly Lynn Jones + A Ghost Story

This week on the Side Woo we talk with LA-based artist and former long-time Bay Area resident Kelly Lynn Jones.  I was really inspired by Kelly’s story and asked her to come on to talk about how she in 2018 she made the decision to file for bankruptcy for her store Little Paper Planes, which was a super cute boutique on Valencia Street in the Mission District of SF.  It came as a bit of a shock to those on the outside and I was really impressed by how transparent Kelly was while going through this challenging time that many would look at as a failure. But instead, Kelly saw it as a chance to change her life. She and her family eventually moved back to LA where she grew up, and began recommitting herself to her art practice.  Three years after returning, Kelly’s first solo show in LA sold out affording her the chance to pursue her art more seriously than she had for a decade since graduate school.


BONUS: Listen all the way to the end for some special ghost-related content. Spoiler: it involves ouiji boards. Really people don’t use them.


About Kelly Lynn Jones

Kelly Lynn Jones (b. 1977 Los Angeles, CA) is a Los Angeles-based artist. She earned a BFA and MFA from the California College of the Arts in San Francisco. Jones has shown her work in multiple group exhibitions including The Pit, La Loma Projects, The Lab, Kala Art Institute, The Berkeley Museum, Southern Exposure, Bedford Gallery, NURTUREart, and Charlotte Street Foundation.  Her work has been highlighted in The Wing’s 2020 publication,  San Francisco Chronicle, and Museums Press. Kelly Lynn Jones is represented by The Pit, Los Angeles.

Taking Back Control: Advocating for Patient Consent with Bay Area Artist, Podcast Host and Activist Nikki Nolan

In this episode, Patron Saint of The Side Woo, Nikki Nolan shares her story about how she began advocating for patient rights, specifically a requirement for stricter regulations around medical consent. After a traumatic experience with a Bay Area medical facility in which her requests for an all-female staff during an ob-gyn procedure were denied, Nikki began researching how to implement policies that favor the agency of patients within medical institutions. Sarah shares her own traumatic experiences within the medical industry. And Nikki and Sarah discuss the benefits of having an internal locus of control on one's sense of self-worth, and self-efficacy and how patient consent will help to further that in vulnerable populations.


About Nikki Nolan

Her thought-provoking work tackles important social issues, exemplified in her two podcasts, "Matter of Life and Debt" and "Disability Bandwidth".

The Journey from Artist to Wellness Practitioner with Desiree Holman

The Journey from Artist to Wellness Practitioner with Desiree Holman

This week on the show, guest Desiree Holman.  Holman is a former art-star turned Nurse Practitioner-in-training. As the Founder of Face, a radical wellness clinic in Oakland, CA, she is trying to help people cultivate better relationships to their appearance through body-positive, age-positive and gender-affirming wellness services.  During their conversation, Desiree and The Side Woo unpack issues around physical beauty that are both personal and taking place on a larger, socio-political scale.  

About Desiree Holman 

Hi, I’m Desiree. I adore my clients and the non-invasive well-aging products & services I offer. FACE, my beauty, and wellness business established in 2019, is all about empowering you to fall in love with yourself through art and science. The FACE experience is based on a one-on-one connection. I listen deeply and carefully to ensure that each client feels seen, heard, and understood. From there, I call on the full force of my intelligence, which includes many years of experience, advanced training, and natural artistry, to help achieve the desired results. I only offer services that I can personally attest to and truly believe in because they deliver amazing results. I know because I have extensively tested every single service FACE offers on myself. Before starting FACE, I enjoyed a career as an artist and art professor for over a decade. Creating a business focused on diverse corporal beauty is a natural extension of my lifelong passions and a new way for me to engage my artistry. FACE believes beauty is a natural after-effect of a body, mind, & spirit that are deeply nourished and well cared for. With a focus on self-care, we can step away from a historical & tyrannical beauty standard. Beauty ideals are an extension of the profound truth that our image and our body are our own to do with as we please.  There is no one formula to beauty; there is only what makes you feel good. Join us in creating a well-aging beauty utopia where grey hair, fat bodies, dark skin, gender non-conformity, & the natural process of aging are desirable.

Supernatural America with Minneapolis Institute of Art Curator and Scorpio, Robert Cozzolino

Supernatural America with Minneapolis Institute of Art Curator and Scorpio, Robert Cozzolino

Sarah sits down with curator and fellow Scorpio, Robert Cozzolino, to talk about his new exhibition Supernatural America: the Paranormal in American Art which is in its last leg of a three-stop national tour at the Minneapolis Institute of Art. 

About the Supernatural America exhibition 

America is haunted. Ghosts from its violent history—the genocide of Indigenous peoples, slavery, the threat of nuclear annihilation, and traumatic wars—are an inescapable and unsettled part of the nation’s heritage. Not merely in the realm of metaphor but present and tangible, urgently calling for contact, these otherworldly visitors have been central to our national identity. Through times of mourning and trauma, artists have been integral to visualizing ghosts, whether national or personal, and in doing so have embraced the uncanny and the inexplicable. This stunning catalog, accompanying the first major exhibition to assess the spectral in American art, explores the numerous ways American artists have made sense of their own experiences of the paranormal and the supernatural, developing a rich visual culture of the intangible.

About Robert Cozzolino 

Robert Cozzolino, the Patrick and Aimee Butler Curator of Paintings at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, curates collaboratively, in partnership with artists, colleagues, and broad communities. “Starting where you are” is critical to his practice—knowing the immediate context and deeper history of the place in which he works. It also means working with humility and accepting that there is much yet to learn from others. Dr. Cozzolino is drawn to artists that make work about the full range of human experience, especially those who aspire to visually express the intangible, states of consciousness, and a full range of emotions. Although he has worked on topics from the 19th and 20th centuries, he regularly works with contemporary artists in examining history. Born and raised in Chicago, he studied at UIC before completing graduate studies at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. His publications include Supernatural America: The Paranormal in American Art (2021), World War I and American Art(2016), Peter Blume: Nature and Metamorphosis (2014), and David Lynch: The Unified Field (2014). First trained as a musician, he has played free-improvised music as a percussionist since 1993.
