27 min - Focus on Joy And Unlock Your Best Work
Focus on Joy and Unlock Your Best Work
Joy is the “good mood of the soul” (Brene Brown) and it allows you to become more of yourself. As artists, our work is not merely a collection of hours of practice; it is the culmination and expression of all our experiences. When we choose to view the world through a lens of openness, gratitude, and joy our worldview expands, and suddenly ideas come to us as freely as the air in our lungs. In this episode we explore what it means to feel joyful, how we can experience more of it, and how it will affect your work for the better.
We talk about:
- The definition of joy
- Joy being an experience of deep spiritual connection
- Using our emotions to open ourselves up to creative flow
- Banishing thoughts of doubt and fear by cultivating joy
- Imbuing our creative lifestyles with more joy so we can sense the divine in all we do

48 min - Alchemize Anger: How You Can Work With The Energy of Rage to Take Big, Aligned Action
Alchemize Anger: How You Can Work With The Energy of Rage to Take Big, Aligned Action
This is not an episode for the demure and cutesy. This is for those that feel the pulse of anger underneath the surface, and do not know how to let it out. You have been told most of your life to keep quiet. To stand in line, do as you're told, and never ever raise your voice. But your rage is righteous and deserves to be heard.
In this week’s episode, we explore the emotion of anger and how to use its energy to take action and create art that allows us to move through these feelings. We discuss how anger is an emotion of movement and communication, and when left unexpressed, we’re generally left feeling weak, unheard, exhausted, and sick. We also share exercises to express your anger in a healthy way, allow other emotions to rise, and to alchemize all of it into art that feels like an authentic expression of your internal world. If you are seeking a permission slip to rage, look no further.
We talk about:
- What it feels like when we do not let our anger out
- How we can channel anger using different forms of art and movement
- Using art as a way to feel what is hidden underneath the layers of rage
- Healthy ways to reflect so you can move forward and not carry anger with you

Your Fans Are Waiting For You to Show Up!
Today’s episode is a big dose of WAKE UP because your fans are out there waiting for you to share your artwork! You might be new at your craft but incredibly passionate about it, or perhaps you’re a skilled artisan with piles of finished pieces and a full camera roll with not a single post or publication about your work. Either way, your fears and excuses are keeping you hidden in the shadows where your fans can’t find you… and I’ve had enough of it! In this week’s episode, we address the fears and limiting thoughts like “if I post, haters will tell me I’m terrible” or “I don’t understand technology, so I’ll never be able to have fans”.

We talk about:

47 min - Get Your Groove Back: How to Start Again After a Slump
Get Your Groove Back: How to Start Again After a Slump
In today's episode, we are talking about getting back into your creative flow after taking a break. There will inevitably be times in life when you cannot visit your creative practice daily, or even weekly. But what about months? Or years? What happens when an intentional break turns into a slump: a time when you are not regularly creating, but in your heart you long to do so. During the slump, it can feel like we’re at war with ourselves. You’re constantly cycling through excuses in your head: “it’s been too long”, “I’m no good”, “ I just don’t have it”. By the end of this episode, you will have a better understanding of how you got to this place, what questions to ask yourself to get into action, and how to use the momentum of a practice session to get you back into regularly creating!
We talk about:
- How to identify if you are “in a slump”
- What to do once you build awareness around your current state (when you recognize it’s been weeks or months since you practiced)
- The inner work that will change the way you approach your creative practice
- Viewing your practice as a self-love ritual, not a chore
- Committing to nurturing your creative practice
- How to be intentional about your practice (a sustainable way to make the promise to yourself to create!)
