Sculptor and installation artist Marianne Lettieri creates intricate, meditative work from salvaged and domestic materials. In this episode, she shares her journey from marketing to art, and how she has centered her practice around intention, discernment, and clarity—rather than urgency or trends.

On this episode of Paige's Pod, I'm joined by Amanda Jeanne - an abstract painter, writer, mother, and retreat host based in Québec. Amanda's work explores the emotional landscapes of motherhood, grief, joy, and stillness Amanda shares how she paints to find freedom, to calm the anxious mind, to remind herself that beauty can be found in chaos and to find her place in this world.Her intuitive, atmospheric paintings are a soft invitation back to the self.We dive into Amanda's creative journey of returning to art after time away, how she designs soul-nourishing retreats, and what it means to hold space for slowness, rest, and inner listening in both painting and life.Whether you're a mother, artist, creative spirit, or someone simply seeking a deeper connection with yourself, this conversation is a gentle reminder that rest is productive, and creativity can be a place of healing.✨ Connect with Amanda:Website: www.amandajeanne.com Instagram: @amandajeanne.studio

This interview is with Aleksandra Artamonovskaja https://www.aleksandra.art/amonovskaja, Head of Art at Trilitech of sustainable blockchain Tezos which is a R&D Hub in London. Aleksandra is a leader in the intersection of art and technology, with extensive experience in Web3 art projects. She is a prominent speaker, writer and educator on the role of decentralized technologies in the creative sector. Aleksandra holds an MA in Art Business from Sotheby's Institute of Art and co-founded Electric Artefacts in 2020, a curatorial advisory focused on digital art and blockchain projects. As the Ambassador and former Director of Partnerships at .ART, Aleksandra played a crucial role in launching the digital address for the arts in 2016, overseeing strategic partnerships to foster the embrace of technology in the art world, including collaborations with Rhizome and Ars Electronica, and spearheading the Digital Innovation in Art Award. Tell us about the blockchain Tezos and why it is the favored blockchain for artists Tezos has been favoured by artists since the launch of the first NFT platform in 2021, witnessing the influx of pioneering artists working with code, AI and other digital tools. Simultaneously artists from the global south found Tezos blockchain accessible thanks to its low minting fees and lack of gatekeeping across existing marketplaces. Thanks to Tezos Foundation supporting the arts direction - via educational programming for Museum professionals, platforms, residencies and artist programming, many artists were able to launch their careers and connect with like-minded peers to strengthen the community ties. The Tezos Foundation has been spearheading wider adoption, including being the first to present blockchain-based art at Art Basel in both Miami and Hong Kong. Through partnerships with prestigious institutions such as the Musée d'Orsay, the Serpentine Gallery, or the ArtScience Museum, internationally acclaimed cultural institutions have begun to embrace Web3 art. Notable collaborations include the Van Gogh Digital Collectibles at d'Orsay, MoMA's Postcard Project, and community programs like RGBMTL in Montreal or the Proof Of People festival in London. This institutional presence, combined with educational initiatives like the Vertical Crypto Residency and Academy by Blind Gallery, has made Tezos not just a marketplace but a cultural movement that prioritizes artists and genuine artistic innovation. Even Marina Abramovik chose Tezos for her "The Hero 25FPS" project in 2022, minting 6,500 unique frames from her 2001 film on the energy-efficient blockchain, and more recently for her 2025 "Marina Abramovik Element" project. Other high-profile initiatives include "Paintboxed - Tezos World Tour," a recent series of interactive events by ArtMeta that offered visitors the chance to experience the original Quantel Paintbox - the legendary digital art tool that created the MTV logo and David Hockney's first digital paintings. Why does Tezos Ecosystem support exhibits at Festivals, Conferences such as London Climate Action Week, Climate Week New York, United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP30)? Tezos Foundation and Trilitech Arts team focus on initiatives that can help spotlight the creators in the Tezos Ecosystem via dozens of in-real-life events throughout the year that often also coincide with Art World and Web3 events. Some examples include Ribela Festival in Spain curated by Sutan, NFC Lisbon pop-up gallery curated by Xcollabz, Second Guess exhibition during Berlin Gallery Weekend curated by Anika Meier, Museum of the Moving Image year-long artist exhibitions in New York curated by Regina Harsanyi to name a few. How is the art NFT market performing this year? The market for art on the blockchain is steadily expanding. Art curators and journalists are also moving past writing about the clickbait gamified trading NFTs that fetched speculative numbers, towards spotlighting the talented artists who have decades of ex...

I'm going to let you in on a secret…my art career took off not by adding more tasks, but by intentionally letting go of a few bad habits. 6 to be precise.

Listen to this episode to get the behind-the-curtain look at how simple shifts changed everything…and how they can change your art career, too.

What felt like failure was actually vital feedback. Understanding Business Plateaus: Why stagnation isn't punishment, but an invitation to rethink and grow. Step-by-Step Through the Stuck: Step 1: Diagnose the real issue – is it the product, audience, or messaging? Step 2: Make a bold move – shake things up, even in small ways. Step 3: Recommit with a sustainable rhythm – avoid burnout with intentional action. Personal Evolution: How pivoting into teaching reignited Stacie's passion, showing that evolving roles can breathe new life into your business. The Five-Hour Week Framework: A balanced approach for creatives to move forward without overwhelm.

For years, Alain travelled the world teaching workshops and painting commissioned portraits. On the surface, it looked like success. But behind the scenes, he was stretched thin — constantly on the move, trading time for money, and missing out on the everyday moments that mattered most. Then came a shift. A decision to stop doing it all the hard way. Alain reimagined his art business and began building something that could grow with him — an online membership and education platform that now supports thousands of artists across the world. In this live episode, Alain opens up about: The turning point that took him from burnout to balance How he scaled his impact without losing connection or creativity Why the creative process can bring hope, healing and joy Whether you're an artist dreaming of more freedom, or someone curious about what's possible when you choose a new path — this conversation will speak to you.

join jessica libor of the creative heroines podcast and myself as we talk about investing in your business. we discuss and share some wise investments you can make into your business as well as unregrettable investments we've personally made. when i began my art business, every bit of profit went right back into my business. there were grids to buy for art shows and fairs, paint to replenish and money to use to build and keep up a website. sometimes they were simple investments like books or medium sized investments like online courses. eventually, i could be more strategic as my income increased, i bought a nice camera, a car lol and now i'm building a studio in our front yard. there's also the time and energy that you invest in your business and the priorities you keep. while jessica went to art school and i went to architecture school, we both agree that it's important to follow your heart and find the path that's best for you. even more important is to find gratitude within your unique path and to support other artists on their path. we all will have different goals and dreams for our art and it's crucial to stay positive with other artists (and ourselves), to remember that there is room for all creatives and that the world needs your work and creativity. LINKSjessica libor's art website: jessicalibor.com  jessica's creative heroine website (coaching & mentoring): thecreativeheroines.comjessica's era contemporary gallery: eracomtemporary.comjessica's instagrams: @jessicaliborstudio @thecreativeheroinesapply & join us spring 2026 at our residency mastermind: the nature of creation: artistic awakening  CONNECT WITH ME:katrinaberg.comemail: k@katrinaberg.comjoin my SWEETlist (my email list)instagram @katrina.berg LEAVE ME FEEDBACK: - what should i talk about next? let me know in the comments below. - did you enjoy this episode? if so, leave me a review!

"It's almost like God or the creator gives you complete enlightenment upon birth, then through existing on in a physical domain, you slowly lose it." "I've sacrificed my morals, I've sacrificed time with my children, I've sacrificed my health, I've sacrificed nurturing my relationship with my wife." "It was kind of like the universe knocking on my door. Like, we have this for you. Do you, you know, it's custom made for you. Do you want it?" "I can almost guarantee you, you're going to grow. But I need you to understand the reason you're going to grow is because this shop is profitable." "There's no need for anger or resentment. There really isn't." "Money can buy freedom. Money can buy creativity. Money can buy space to explore these things." "Ultimately, I believe we exude a frequency, a signature. And I think that that signature attracts that same signature closer to you." "I just want to create love and friendship and beauty and art, and I can't seem to escape these type of people in my life." "As soon as you can see the wound, from that day forward, it starts to heal." "The best part about getting tattooed has nothing to do with the tattoo.
