Today we talk with the one and only, Meg Kissack. Meg is host of the Couragemakers Podcast and creator of That Hummingbird Life, an online community offering 100+ practical and rebel-rousing posts about creativity, courage and dream-chasing, and what it means to show up in the world and own, live and share your story. She's also a life coach and has almost a decade of experience in project development, community development, activism and campaigns.

 

"I think the messy middle for me has been perseverance and I think that can be the scariest thing."

 

Together, we discuss:

 

-How she found her amazing tribe

-How she figured out how to explain what she does to others

-When she doesn't share freely with others about her soul's work

-Why she created a podcast talking to "real" women

-How she figured out how to not "dull her shine"

-Why it's necessary to "take her own medicine" sometimes

-Why life isn't actually linear

-What writing means to her and how she uses it to encourages others

-What is multi-passionism and why is it so important?!

-What is the most valuable thing you can give people?

-Why she doesn't believe in self-help gurus or 10 step programs

-Why creativity is contagious

-The problem with social media

-Why courage & creativity go hand in hand.

-Why the idea of living fearlessly is just a myth & why you shouldn't worry about things that haven't happened yet!

"We all surprise ourselves when we do scary things!"
