Listen Later

We were so lucky to get a chance to sit down with Alice May-Purkiss for this week's episode. We really explore the value of creativity in your wellbeing as a human before your job title whilst also acknowledging how it can be one of the most undervalued tools in our toolbox as business owners and creatives ourselves.

Is an EMCC accredited transformational mindset coach who works with creativity and wellbeing as a focus. Alice's intrigue into how people could use the arts to tell their story and how that could help them heal led her to exploring the idea of creative health -  how we can use our creativity to support our overall wellbeing.

Alice has overcome huge adversity, spending years living life on autopilot. Saying yes when she wanted to say no, following a path that didn’t feel hers, doing a job she didn't love then, life threw her a massive curve ball when she was diagnosed with breast cancer when at 26.
Alice says, “I realised I didn’t want to live a life that looked good on the outside but felt disconnected on the inside. I wanted to feel alive, aligned and truly ME. And I know I'm not the only person who has ever felt like they're not being totally honest with themselves about how they want to live.”


She helps burnt out, anxious, self-doubting and overwhelmed individuals reconnect with their authentic selves to build lasting resilience and confidence.  Through creative and holistic approaches, she empowers her clients to embrace their creativity, trust, intuition so they cultivate a balanced, fulfilling life. 

We also explore:

  • The power of creativity in healing

  • Cultivating creativity in your daily life
