202 - For When You Feel Like Giving Up
Do you ever feel like you've lost your way?
When you hit obstacles, setbacks and dead ends, do you sometimes feel as if you've fallen off your path?
For me, the creative career path is a roller coaster. There are so many circumstantial and emotional ups and downs, and if you ride every twist and turn, it can be exhausting and discouraging. Sometimes, I almost feel like this road is somehow cursed even!!!
In this episode I want to share with you ideas and tactics that have helped me breakthrough the times when I feel like giving up, and why this is the most essential tool in your creative career tool belt.
This episode is chocked full of big ideas and encouragement, but we know the real encouragement comes from tactics that actually enable real breakthrough in your creative career, and we've baked that in too!
This episode is pretty different and very special, we call it "The Curse of Art Island"!

October 02, 2018 201 - How to Find Your Gift
Finding your creative gift is the most important (and difficult) pursuit in your creative career, and in this episode, I will share all the clues that have helped me make progress on this journey.
From podcast interviews to speaking at conferences, I am very fortunate to get to meet a lot of phenomenal creative professionals. For the longest time, the central question for me has been this: what do the best of the best have in common? Over time, a pattern emerged: while there are an infinite amount of creative gifts, the people who know truly know what there gift really is are the ones that rise and stay at the top.
And yet, most of the artists I meet seem petrified to ask themselves "what is my gift?"
Maybe it's because we're afraid that we don't really have a gift? Maybe we're afraid because our gift is different than what we've spent years pretending it is?
Whatever your fear of facing this deeply important question is, it's my hope that today's episode will give you the tools you need to have a breakthrough on this journey!
