Creativity: The Most Important Relationship We Have with Ourselves
This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit anneboydrioux.substack.com
A couple of weeks ago I had an amazing conversation with my friend
Cynthia Morris, and I can’t wait to share it with you. I wanted to interview her because she is one of the truly audacious women who have inspired me on my path. She is the most creative person I know, leading sketchbook trips around Lisbon and Paris, coaching writers and artists, making art herself, and being a published author.
In the first part of our discussion, we go deep, talking about her latest novel, Her Lisbon Colors, which follows a character who embarks on a journey of self-discovery and reinvention in Portugal that involves both romance and art, specifically keeping an amazing sketchbook. And it has an eye-popping cover that I just love:
We also discuss in the first part:
--the importance (and difficulty) of figuring out what is really important to us
--the role creativity has played in our journeys
--how women often feel they are being selfish when they commit their time and energy to creativity
--the inner work (and obstacles) of writing a book, which can be just as difficult as the outer work
--how Quantum Energy Coaching (QEC) has helped us both in our creative lives
--the (often negative) beliefs we hold around writing and their effect on us.
In the second part, beyond the paywall we go even deeper.
--Cynthia shares more about her journey self-publishing her novel,
--we get more personal about challenges we’ve faced as creatives,
--we discuss in more depth the role QEC has played in our healing,
--Cynthia talks about how she makes a living as a creative person and coach, something that I deeply admire her for (she has truly made creativity her life), and
--Cynthia shares how she approaches marketing and putting herself out there, something that all creatives seem to loathe but that we need to learn to do well.
Putting the more personal part of our conversation behind a paywall is necessary, considering how much time and effort goes into producing one of these conversations. It also frees us to talk more openly. I hope you will consider upgrading to hear all of it and see the value in hearing what is going on often behind the scenes of our creative lives. ($5/month, $45/year, or $100/year with a 1:1 consultation with me).
