#265 - Interview with photographer Lesle Lane

I sat down with Lesle Lane to talk about what happens after the spotlight fades and you decide not to disappear. Lesle opens up about reinvention, and a creative identity. Finding the long road of staying true to your voice in an industry that constantly asks not to. Become something else you never wanted to be. We get into the discipline it takes to keep creating when the rules change. How the courage required to start over more than once truly exists.
Our conversation moves through music, production, and entrepreneurship. Seeing how the quiet work is made behind Studio 13. Lesle talks honestly about learning through failure, and trusting instinct over trends. Building something meaningful without chasing validation. There’s a real sense of earned wisdom here, and not packaged advice. Lessons pulled from experience, rather than a degree.

This episode is for anyone rebuilding or recalibrating. Maybe, refusing to let their creative life end on someone else’s terms. Lesle’s story is a reminder that longevity comes from adaptability. Staying honest, and connected to why you started in the first place.
