Paving Your Own Path— How Bunkt Became an Artist at 43
The Grateful Podcast with Jack Wagoner
Episode 29
Bunkt_ has made art the focal point of his life; he found it at 43, he says, but that just proves that it is never too late to give up on yourself and pursue your dreams.
In this episode, Jack interviews his dad, Bunkt, an artist who found his passion and purpose at age 43. They dive into his creative process, how he initially emulated Basquiat before developing his own style, and the impact of daily creative work on his fulfillment. Bunkt shares insights on consistency, personal time, and the long-term rewards of pursuing what you love. They explore the question: Is your creative pursuit the key to a more fulfilled life?
Personally, this was one of my favorite conversations I have ever had. It was admittedly a little weird at first to speak with my dad in front of cameras: we talk all the time, but the changed environment was a bit off-putting. However, by the end, we were very comfortable, and I loved how the conversation turned out. I am so proud of my dad for going after what he loves in life. Seeing him pursue art as his full-time thing inspires me to settle for nothing less than my dreams. I know that anything is possible in life, and I owe that a lot to my dad.
I have the best dad I could ever ask for; I am so grateful.
I hope you enjoy the conversation.

🎙️ About Jack:
I moved to France alone at 16, started my first business at 17, and launched this podcast because I kept meeting people who had the answers to questions I didn't even know I was asking. My philosophy: you can set massive goals while being deeply fulfilled right now. That's the duality of gratitude and ambition.
