She's back! Three years after her first appearance on Seattle House Mafia, Amie Dabu (Snapdragon) returns to the studio for a candid catch-up with Phil Anthony, marking her status as the show's first-ever repeat guest.

In this episode, Snapdragon opens up about trading Seattle for rural Massachusetts, the emotional weight of leaving a city and scene she calls home, and building a new life alongside her partner closer to his family roots. She dives into her work running Distracted Dreams, her ADHD coaching practice, and shares how relocating to a quieter setting has sharpened her focus on both her coaching business and her music production.

The conversation ranges from the difference between making music as a creative calling versus a career vehicle, to the blessings and challenges of neurodivergence in the creative process, to what it takes to prep for an out-of-state gig without the safety net of a local scene. Snapdragon also reflects on returning to Seattle for a whirlwind visit packed with a workshop, a set at Monkey Loft, and a Tea Dance appearance at The Cuff.

Beyond the catch-up, this episode offers a genuinely useful window into how neurodivergent creatives navigate the music industry, from managing burnout and self-worth tied to output, to why some artists chase the music itself rather than the status that comes with it. Snapdragon and Phil trade stories and perspective as two neurodivergent creatives comparing notes, making this as much a resource for producers and DJs as it is a personal reunion between old friends.
