Listen "Episode 59 — Rediscovering Creativity with Filmmaker Nathan Woods"
Episode Synopsis
In today’s episode of Inspired to Soar with Hannah, we sit with filmmaker and visual storyteller Nathan Woods, a man whose journey reminds us that sometimes the spark you think you’ve lost is actually waiting for you to come back to it.
Nathan grew up on the Mornington Peninsula seeing the world differently, sketching, experimenting with calligraphy, filming his mates at the skatepark with nothing but instinct and curiosity. What started as documenting life on four wheels became a 16-year chapter of filming sponsored skateboarders, building friendships, and capturing a culture most people never get to see from the inside.
But life shifted. The skate crew moved on. The camera disappeared. And Nathan entered a season where creativity went quiet… until life nudged him back behind the lens.
Today, we explore that entire arc, the early days, the breakdowns, the rebuilds, the illness that isolated him, the diagnoses that reshaped him, the friendships that changed him, and the film that reignited everything: See Me – A Film About Redro Redriguez.
This conversation is raw, reflective and deeply human.
If you’ve ever stepped away from the thing you love , this episode will speak to you.
Your story matters here. 💛
