Like a Pearl is a podcast about creativity, curiosity, and the many ways people build creative lives.

Through conversations with artists, musicians, cultural leaders, entrepreneurs, and other inspiring guests, listeners discover how people develop their craft, navigate challenges, and embrace reinvention and connection.

These are conversations about dedication, creativity, resilience, and the courage to follow an unconventional path. Whether you're an artist, entrepreneur, or creative—or simply someone looking to live your life more creatively—Like a Pearl offers inspiration and motivation to follow your own creative path.

Hosted by Daphne Roubini, jazz vocalist, songwriter, and creative entrepreneur originally from London, UK, now living in Vancouver, Canada.
