Here's a secret: Your shadow emotions like envy, jealousy, and anger can become your guideposts towards finding what you need to create. In this episode, I unravel how these misunderstood emotions serve as an unconventional yet dominant compass towards your true values and desires. These emotional states are actually goldmines of information. 

This episode explores how you can use envy and jealousy as tools to create something that is meaningful to you.

You've been wounded, physically or emotionally, and suddenly you're unable to do the things you once could. Fascinatingly, our wounds and scars can be the source of beautiful and empowering art. I share a transformative encounter with a stranger that shifted my perspective on self-care, healing, and creativity. We also touch on the bold notion of creating from a wound versus a scar, drawing insights from raw, open wounds and the wisdom that comes with healing. This episode is not just about confronting our wounds, but also about harnessing them for our creative processes.

Afraid of navigating the complex world of artist residencies as an aerialist? You don’t need a residency specifically geared towards circus artists to flourish.

Join me on a not-so-ordinary voyage through the life of a working artist, navigating the rough waters of maintaining day jobs which aren't necessarily our life's passion, debunking the myth that successful artists live solely off their creative craft. Get ready for an honest chat about survival in a late-stage capitalist world, from my own experiences living off my creativity for years in San Francisco and Seattle, and how having multiple income streams can be beneficial for mental and physical health.
