The Chris Dauphin Podcast is something really close to my heart—a passion project that lets me dive into the stories of the amazing people who make Nashville what it is. This podcast is all about connecting with those who are driving change, sparking creativity, and shaping the Nashville community. For me, it’s a way to celebrate the city I love, the people that I find interesting, and hopefully share conversations that inspire and resonate. I’m excited to take you on this journey with me, exploring the ideas and experiences that make Nashville such a special place.

In this episode of The Chris Dauphin Podcast, I sit down with Nashville visual artist and author Kimberly Clo for a conversation about art, healing, and the power of learning to let go.
We talk through her public art — from the EMBRACE mural in downtown Nashville to A Cross Section of My Being currently on display at GEODIS Park — and how her creative process is rooted in both intention and release.
We also dive into her book, Releasing the Past: A Back-of-the-Toilet Book About How to Really Let Sh*t Go — a mix of humor, honesty, and creative insight, complete with puns, haikus (“HaiPoos”), and practical ways to let go of things that no longer serve you.
This episode is all about letting go — of control, of perfection, and of the weight we carry too long.
