The Side Quest with Lex Hearth is a weekly podcast exploring the personal projects, creative pursuits, and quiet ambitions people build alongside other work. Hosted by DJ and broadcaster Lex Hearth, the show features candid conversations with artists, founders, and cultural leaders about the journeys they don’t always share publicly. Each episode explores what it really takes to develop a passion without having it all figured out, from balancing time and energy, to redefining success, staying motivated, and building something meaningful on your own terms. Through honest stories, reflective insight, and practical frameworks, The Side Quest offers listeners a way to pursue ideas that bring purpose, joy, and momentum, even when time is short! This podcast is for anyone looking to develop a project or business, and seeking camaraderie and inspiration.
