Show Notes
As creatives we are sharing our art and that is a vulnerable act. And in that exposure we want to make sure we are grounded in our own opinions of our work and our process and not swayed by the opinions of others.
If we allow what others say about our art and use that as either a motivator or a deterrent from creating then we are leaving ourselves fragile in our creative explorations.
We as the artist should always value our own opinion and allow that to guide our creative journeys. Everything outside of that is secondary.

Your ideas are impotent without your collaboration. You are the activating agent. In this episode we take a look at why you resist acting on your ideas and what you can do about it. We end with a reflection prompt.
In this week’s episode I speak about how lucky we are to be artists. We can be told about a lot of negative aspects of being an artist but the positives far outweigh the negatives. If you are an artist, you are one of the lucky ones!
In this week’s episode I speak about using the beginning of a new year in a totally different way to how we are all told to begin it. Instead of rushing into action on your goals how about using the time to daydream about your new ideas and allow time for creative incubation.
In this week’s episode I speak about the sentiments behind the statement artists often hear , which is. “I could do that” and how it can lean into devaluing the work of an artist and the art itself.
In this week’s episode I ask the question, are you a creative butterfly? Do you flit from one new idea to the next but never see any single one of them through to the end? We take a look at how we can use constraint as a way of insuring we learn to see some projects through to completion.
