Artist Recovery Podcast

Artist Recovery Podcast is Bringing Light to the Darkside of Art. I’m Rich Wright, your host — and here we're redefining recovery as Renewal, Resilience and Creative Transformation. Because for artists, it’s more than survival… it’s Remembering.
This show is about the real journey of being a working creative — the highs, the lows, the pivots, and the reinventions that shape who we are. Together we’ll explore how setbacks can spark transformation, how loss can open new paths, and how resilience fuels the heart of every artist’s story.
If you’ve ever faced doubt, setback, or the call to reinvent yourself, you’re in the right place. Let’s recover — and create — together.”

Artist Recovery Podcast S2 Ep. 6 | Siquoyia Blue: Abstract Soul & Reclaiming Creative Power

February 06, 2026 • Rich Wright • Season 2 • Episode 6

What happens when a creative soul refuses to choose just one identity?
In this deeply human episode of the Artist Recovery Podcast, host Rich Wright sits down with Siquoyia Blue—musician, author, technologist, entrepreneur, and self-described modern-day renaissance woman—for an unfiltered conversation about resilience, intuition, and redefining success on your own terms.
Siquoyia is the creator of Abstract Soul, a signature musical sound that fuses the heart of R&B, the groove of funk, the depth of soul, and the edge of rock into something emotionally raw and spiritually resonant. But her story extends far beyond music.
Born in Connecticut and raised across Virginia, California, and Georgia, Siquoyia grew up feeling like an outsider—navigating loneliness, constant relocation, and an early sense that she didn’t quite fit into traditional systems of school, work, or expectation. Music became her refuge, her language, and eventually her lifeline.

In this episode, Siquoyia opens up about:
~ Growing up as a lone wolf and learning resilience early
~ Discovering music as a form of survival—not just expression
~ Attending performing arts high school and chasing creative validation
~ The disillusionment of exploitative creative industries
~ Battling depression while still choosing to create
~ Pivoting from music alone into entrepreneurship and technology
~ Entering the tech world without abandoning her artistic identity
~ Learning how intuition became her internal compass
~Redefining success beyond fame, money, or external approval

Siquoyia’s journey proves that creative wholeness is not only possible, it’s powerful.
Rich and Siquoyia explore how listening to your inner voice can save you from burnout, exploitation, and soul-loss—and how building financial stability doesn’t mean selling out, but can actually create freedom for deeper creative work.

This is an episode about:
~ Trusting your intuition when systems fail you
~ Building resilience without hardening your heart
~ Creating art without needing permission
~ Surviving long enough to define success for yourself
~ Honoring creativity as a lifelong relationship, not a destination
If you’ve ever felt too complex, too sensitive, too unconventional—or too creative for the boxes you were offered—this episode is for you.
