I sat down w wood artist and optimist Ike Wynter, who was a touring musician in the band Narrow Hearts and then worked in junk removal before now making art out of wood full-time. He's the tour manager for Charlie Rocket and the Dream Machine Foundation, who travel to help make peoples' dreams come true across the country. We discussed Ike's passion for scrapping and making old things new, some of his latest pieces, an art show he's got coming up on August 6th, meeting Charlie by chance through finding him in southeastern Wisconsin, and the Dream Machine Foundation's disaster relief efforts after the 2022 Kentucky tornadoes.--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ben-slowey/support

August 23, 2020. Do you remember what you did that day? Unlikely...it was just another normal, uneventful Sunday for most of us. But, for Ike Wynter, it's a day that will never be forgotten. It's the day he realized what he needed to do. August 23, 2020 marked the start of a new chapter. Like many of us, Ike has experienced his share of pain, heartbreak, and despair. And, while these events and the emotions attached to them can be crippling to some, Ike has used them as opportunities to apply perspective and set out on a new course—one that taps into his passions and aligns with the vision he has for his life. He decided to leave his family business to pursue what truly spoke to his soul—art. Ike is now fully pursuing his work with Wynter Woods, selling his hand-crafted eco-sustainable wood wall art to buyers across the county. More than anything, Ike is a testament to the power of perspective and presence, to allowing yourself to be guided by your individual light, especially when life grows dark around you. --- Ike's stunning art can be found on Etsy. Also, check him and his amazing stuff out on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok!--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast.  https://anchor.fm/appSupport this podcast: https://anchor.fm/journeymenpdcst/support
