Beats Working: Winning The Game of Work · 2026-04-20 · 44 min
What if the most meaningful work you could do… felt like play? In this episode, Dan T. Rogers sits down with photographer and storyteller Shelly Corbett, who describes herself simply as someone who “sells joy.” From burnout and reinvention to building a creative life centered around play, Shelly shares how toys, storytelling, and generosity can unlock something deeper: a return to who we really are.
