How to Get Inspired and Be Inspired (Even When You Feel Burned Out)


Listen Later

If you've been feeling stuck or uninspired—whether in your personal practice or your teaching—this episode is for you.

I'm sharing how I've reignited my own creativity over the years, not by pushing harder, but by allowing myself to breathe in new experiences. From Da Vinci to Mirabai, from Einstein's violin to the poetry of Lalla, I'll take you on a journey that reveals the true source of inspiration—and how you can access it again (and again).

Here's what I'll explore:

🔹 What "inspiration" really means (and why you can't force it)

🔹 How to feed your creativity through multi-disciplinary learning

🔹 Why your students crave emotion more than information

🔹 The power of music, beauty, and sensory detail to awaken your teaching

🔹 How you showing up in your element is the greatest gift you can give

🔹 Why "how" something is offered matters as much as what's offered

If you've been wondering how to get inspired again—or how to truly inspire others—this episode will give you a whole new lens. And maybe, a little fire in your belly.
