Follow Your Curiosity is a podcast about creativity—how it works, how it shows up in real life, and how people find their way into it.
Each episode is an unscripted, curiosity-driven conversation. We start at the beginning and see where the story, the connections, and the questions take us.
Twice a month, you’ll hear in-depth conversations with people from all kinds of backgrounds about their creative lives: how they got started, what shaped them, and what they’ve discovered along the way. Some guests are widely known, others less so—but all of them offer a window into the many different ways creativity works and what it means to the people living it.
In the alternating weeks, you’ll hear short Creative Pep Talk episodes with ideas, tools, or reflections you can take into your own creative life.
Following my own curiosity sometimes leads me into unexpected places—including conversations connected to Doctor Who and the people who bring those stories to life, in front of and behind the scenes.
Every episode stands on its own, so you can start wherever you like.

Hillary Webb describes herself as a cultural anthropologist, author, and mixed-media storyteller with a focus on theater anthropology and cross-cultural perspectives on human consciousness. It’s a mix that covers a lot of territory, both literally and figuratively. Hillary has traveled the world for research on shamanism and consciousness, and has even managed to stumble into the world of stand-up comedy in Berlin. We talk about Western ideas of individualism and how they influence our ideas of being part of a group, how those dynamics function in a place like Peru, and how they all influence our senses of who we really are. We also explore the current cultural ideal of authenticity and how it intersects with enthusiasm—and come to a conclusion that might surprise you.
