Hey, and welcome to This Creative Life - conversations with creatives on creativity and how can cultivate, inspire and nourish our creative souls. We’re back for 2022, and I can’t think of a better soul to start the year off with than Dr Marion Piper.

Marion is a Creativity Coach and Copywriter based in Melbourne, Australia who is so damn passionate about creativity - she lives and breathes it. We had a deep chat about the beginnings of her creative life, and how it led to her studying a PHD in post traumatic growth which she discovered through the simple act of creative journalling. We also explore the mind-blowing concept that it’s not about time, it’s about energy when it comes to prioritising creativity, the creative process and how we all manage to skip a step in some way, and she shares the most perfect advice for creating on your own terms.
