Nectar: Sweet musings for your creative soul

Water is one of the most powerful materials we can work with in our creative process.

It carries ancient information, connects all of us to each other, and is here to support us. 

In this video you’ll get a chance to tune into the energy of water as an art medium and a personal guide as you discover what message the water has for you. We’ll create a piece of art with water from a local source such as a well, a nearby lake, or even rain water. 

Grab some water, your watercolors, and any other water based mediums calling you and follow along. 

This video was part of a community call I held to honor water…be sure to watch it until the end to see some of the art people from our community created on the live call.

Imagine what’s really possible when you give yourself the time and space to create. I hope this episode inspires you if you're considering going on a retreat or you'd like to hear more about what actually happens on an art retreat. 

In this special conversation with my husband, we reminisce about my experience at the Call of the Wild Soul Retreat when I was 3 months pregnant. This retreat became a pivotal moment in my creative journey and helped lay the foundation for my path into motherhood.

Check out the blog page for this episode to see the art, photos from this retreat, and more details here: https://www.staceymaney.com/post/call-of-the-wild-soul 

We talk about what I experienced, what shifted for me, the art I created during that time, and how it still impacts my work to this day.

What began as an art retreat became something much deeper: a remembering of who I was, a new way of trusting my creative voice, and a doorway into the next chapter of my life. 🌿🎨✨

In this special conversation, I get to connect with my favorite artist Flora Bowley. Flora's teachings helped me fall in love with my creative process all over again. 🎨💖

This episode is for you if you’ve ever felt like you don’t belong, struggled to share your voice, or you’re totally exhausted from doing it alone. 

Reading The Hive Agreements feels like the deep exhale we all need. This book has become a gentle heartbeat that's been guiding me to a more compassionate and loving space. 

This book was written by Nicole Fox, Sacha Sterling, Jennifer Brown, & Amber Kuileimailani Bonnici.

Join me in this convo as I dive in with 2 of the book’s authors Nicole and Jennifer. You’ll hear how the bees brought them together at a retreat, about the guidance and downloads they received from the bees, and how that guidance became their own instructions as they went deep in their healing work together. 

You’ll also hear some ways you can work with the bees in your creative practice and how their wisdom is perfect for creatives at this time.

In this episode I get to share my experiences at the closing ceremony in Washington, D.C. on Earth Day. You'll get to hear all about the final part of the journey, music from that day, and how you can interweave this potent energy into your creative practice. 

This episode was recorded as part of my online retreat called Write From the Heart. In this episode I get to dive deep with Whitney Freya as we discuss how to use our voices and our creativity for good. In this talk you'll hear more about her story and how over time she’s built the creative muscle that enabled her to take on her biggest humanitarian project yet - The Great Mother March.

After our talk I felt so much more capable to keep going and at peace with where I am on my own journey. I hope you'll feel just as inspired too.

In this episode, I’m taking you into my experience at the Great Mother March, where I witnessed something deeply nourishing: people coming together not in reaction to chaos, but in devotion to a more beautiful future. It was a living prayer. A remembering. A collective act of love.

By the end of this episode, you’ll be able to connect into the energy of this event, hear how what the march is shifting within me, and the one question the Great Mother is asking all of us at this time. This is an invitation to consciously work with this potent energy inside your own creative practice, allow the momentum of the march to become fuel for your art, your voice, your offerings, and the future you are here to help shape.
