On the Inside Looking In

Real Conversations with Creatives Building in Real Time

About the show

On the Inside Looking In is a podcast about building creative work in real time.
Hosted by Adrian Huerta, an Emmy Award–winning storyteller and founder of Adrian Huerta Media, this show features conversations with creatives, entrepreneurs, and cultural builders who are shaping ideas before they’re fully formed.
We’re not talking after success, but during the process.
From filmmakers and artists to founders and freelancers, each episode explores what it actually takes to create, sustain, and grow meaningful work. These are talks with creatives navigating uncertainty, refining ideas, and building something real in a world that rewards the finished product. This isn’t about polished outcomes. It’s about the work while it’s happening. It’s on the inside looking in.
