Dear Creative Mind｜a space for creative liberation

Join me for this conversation with Hannalah, a poet and content marketing strategist for creatives- where we talk about the very real challenges of becoming visible online. She is basically coming to rescue us from the quicksands of social media!

Hannalah believes that the world needs more creative people sharing their insight with the world. She focuses on helping her clients create meaningful connections, invested communities, and relationships that contribute to sustained growth for years to come. 

During our conversation, we talk about maintaining our true voice in a busy and noisy social media world, how to build genuine relationships when success on social media is dictated by superficial metrics, how to set boundaries in our online presence... and so much more.

This is an invitation to join The Playground community for our summer gatherings.

Today, I'm chatting with Corri Lynne — she's a children's book author and illustrator living in Pittsburgh with her husband and little dog, Peanut. She is passionate about living authentically and sharing openly about past trauma, addiction, and recovery. Her hope is to challenge the stigma society still holds for these issues. She is a lover of all things creative and believes in the power of art to heal and transform.

Corri Lynne shared so openly and vulnerably about her own journey recovering from addiction and an eating disorder, and how she reconnected with her creative side to heal trauma... and how she now creates healing stories for children to feel more empowered in navigating their own emotional world. We also talked about some very practical ways to deal with self-doubt and shame when we create and share our art.

In this episode, I'm here to guide you towards spending more time doing rather than endlessly ruminating over the process of making art. As always, my intention is to help you navigate the complexities of your creative mind without letting it hold you back. Today, I'll share some insights to prompt you to consider other aspects of yourself that can contribute to the creative process, allowing the mind to take a back seat and let you move forward into creation mode.

Having someone holding space and guiding you through this process would feel like a big exhale? I'm here! You're always welcome to book a free 30-minute call with me to talk through your dreams, challenges, and explore coaching options.

About me

Pascale Côté is a creativity guide, artist, and writer who helps creatives meet, understand, and express themselves by guiding them to work *with* their (creative, complex, unconventional) nature instead of against it. She helps artists, visionaries, disruptors and earth stewards break free from the vortex of overthinking and move forward with their bold, rebellious ideas. Her work challenges conventional norms, inviting creatives to explore what’s possible when they release outdated narratives and embrace their true, authentic expression. Pascale believes that art is a powerful vehicle for both individual and collective change when it’s grounded in truth—created outside the rigid systems that stifle our creative spirit.

About the podcast

Creative minds are the architects of a new world, and their art holds the keys to reimagining our reality. The challenge is, creative minds often spend just as much time crafting self-limiting narratives as they do creating their art. Dear Creative Mind is a space for creative liberation—a pathway out of the cycle of overthinking, burnout, and stagnation. This podcast is for artists & creative entrepreneurs where Pascale, creativity guide, shares grounding meditations, gentle coaching guidance and heartfelt conversations with inspiring artists. The podcast explores the real challenges that come with being creative—overthinking, self-doubt, burnout—and how to navigate them while staying true to our vision.

Today, I'm chatting with Susan Victoria Becher, (a lovely former client of mine!) who is a poet, writer, singer/songwriter, and overall creative being. She enjoys broadening her skillset by trying new things and encouraging others to do the same. She is publishing her YA novel entitled 'Penn and Ava' this summer, with a publishing date set for July 23rd. She is also in the process of writing and recording an album. And she is currently in graduate school to become a Licensed Professional Counselor and plans to graduate in December of 2025.

During our conversation, we explore the creative process of publishing a book and recording an album, chat about the healing power of art, dive into the courage of making big life changes and finding communities that truly support us, and discuss small steps to navigate the vulnerable process of sharing our art with the world.

Susan is currently running a crowdfunding campaign to support the publishing of her YA novel. Let's share and support her: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/penn-ava-help-me-publish-my-ya-novel#/

This is an official invitation to join us for Devotion, a 5-week series of community gatherings where we come together to create space for a project that’s been sitting on the shelves of our creative mind. Some of us will dedicate time to finishing existing projects or starting on new ones, while others will take the opportunity to explore something new or reconnect with a creative practice, all with the support of each other.

Together, we'll embrace the messy drafts, the works in progress, and the creative detours. No deadlines, no judgments— just a supportive environment where you can build momentum + make progress on your project at your own pace.

The next series begin on April 25th, and I would love to see you there! Sessions will be recorded if you cannot attend live.

Today, I'm chatting with Julie Villain, a former client of mine and a creative soul with a sensitive heart, working as a website designer at studio folha.

During our conversation, we explore the recent rebirth she went through when she relaunched her creative business at the end of 2023 and what she has learned through the process, and how she juggles the more practical side of owning a business and the emotional side of being a creative human.

We also explore the introspective and profound experience of undergoing the website design process for your creative work. As you build this practical tool for your business, you're also constructing a home for your work, making it a beautiful journey of self-discovery.

Julie is dedicated to supporting conscious business owners and creative solopreneurs in crafting intentional websites that will give them the confidence to share their work, genuinely connect with their audience, and enjoy the freedom of growing their business their own way.

Julie passionately believes in the transformative power of your ideas to shape a better future for all and sees design as a potent tool for change. She likes to envision studio folha as a playground where she can use her creative vision to serve your unique expression and help your business thrive online.
