Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Brian Burke. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Alright, Brian thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Can you talk to us about a project that’s meant a lot to you?

working on my mothers memorial, which is still not done, she requested it instead of a funeral or wake. there are many parts to it. my bad health and lack of jobs and money, threat of homelessness are a big problem. i also wish to publish a book about her as a part of it, in addition to my own writing projects and artwork, and films. this is a shortened version there more to add to this later.

Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.

i am trying to start a business with my art and and writing and my you tube page but have had many difficulties relating t0 my mothers death and disabilities.

Let’s talk about resilience next – do you have a story you can share with us?

i have survived many close calls, such as violent attacks, and my many disabilities and i almost died from covid and was on the floor at my place for several days before calling 911 and getting to the hospital. they said i was lucky to be alive.

Is there a particular goal or mission driving your creative journey?

aside from my mothers memorial project and book, i would like to publish my stories and my artwork and films, and also perhaps use my art to make calendars, greeting cards, and board games.
