In this two-part episode Margo is joined by Wellness Coach for Creatives, Sancha Prowse. With a background as a professional singer, vocal coach, and visual artist, Sancha has spent years immersed in the creative world, experiencing both its highs and its challenges. After facing intense burnout and adrenal fatigue while striving to excel, Sancha felt a calling to help other creatives navigate similar struggles. Her journey from performer to wellness coach was inspired by a serendipitous moment helping her sister through a health scare, leading her to channel her passion and lived experience into supporting artists in thriving holistically. Margo and Sancha discuss: The importance of tuning into your body and listening to what it's telling you. How prioritizing self-care positively impacts your creativity. Identifying what gives you energy and recognizing areas where you may be losing power. The transformative power of making small positive changes in your daily routine. Cultivating stillness as a way to dive deeper into your artmaking. Letting go of limiting beliefs that hold you back from optimal health and creativity. Breaking through long-standing blockages to achieve a sense of wellness. Why sleep is critical for both your overall health and your creative output. The role of self-compassion and celebrating small wins in your wellness journey. Building an essential wellness toolkit tailored for creatives.

Recorded November 26, 2024. Trinity Long Room Hub Visiting Research Fellow Professor Anthony Caleshu (University of Plymouth) in conversation with Professor Philip Coleman (School of English, TCD). Bio I wrote my PhD at National University of Ireland, Galway (on the American poet, James Tate), and began working at University of Plymouth in 2003. I became Professor of Poetry and Creative Writing in 2012.  My chief interest is Contemporary Poetry. I've written 5 books of poetry and 3 books about poetry. I also write short fiction, and have recently completed a screenplay. Past writing publications include a novella as well.    Critical interests include Creative Health. My current work is around the benefit of Community Assets (Arts & Cultural organisations) and Social Prescription to support those with common mental health symptoms. I was PI for the AHRC-funded 'Poets Respond to Covid-19' project (2020-2021). Our published project findings about the benefit of poetry to health and well-being during the pandemic were covered by over 200 media outlets around the world.  All of my writing is research led and often stems from my wider interest in the creative arts and philosophy. My fifth and most recent book of poetry, Xenia etc. (Shearsman, 2023) aims to re-invigorate the ekphrastic tradition, spring-boarding from contemporary visual art into an exploration of the contemporary condition (exploring sexuality and gender in the paintings of Julie Curtiss, landscape and the environment in the work of Shara Hughes and Emma Webster, and race in the work of Henry Taylor).  Learn more at www.tcd.ie/trinitylongroomhub

Steph catches up with sculpture artist Anna Horne ahead of her exhibition Colour Me Soft at Hugo Michell Gallery. A bit of reminiscing about her first outdoor exhibition reveals how Anna found her way to using concrete in her work - which she is now known for using. They chat about the dynamics of being an artist driven by material and process (rather than pre-visualised ideas), and the influence of current issues on Anna's artmaking.   Show Notes Interview Transcript (PDF) Adelaide Central School of Art Anna Horne, Weigh Down, 2014, rope, concrete, dimensions variable, installed in Rymill Park as part of FELTnatural 2014 Jimmy Dodd / Double Diamond art fabrication Art 21 ‘A World Of One's Own' (podcast) conversations between Tai Snaith and a diverse group of different female-identifying and non-binary artists.

From studying the fragile ecosystems supporting the threatened lives of gibbons, Professor Helen Chatterjee is combining that understanding of evolution and conservation, with her practice of raising awareness of the importance of sustainable green environments which can be used as “nature prescriptions” for us, especially if we live in inner cities. Access to quality spaces is vital to our mental and physical wellbeing. She shares with us her personal story, as well as an impassioned call for the need to try to encourage social prescribing of nature-based solutions from GPs and healthcare workers. Whether it's a walk in the park, gardening, or other connections with nature, there is extensive evidence for the bio, psycho and social health benefits to us. Making life changes, behavioural changes sooner rather than later should be high on the agenda. Also she discusses the social predetermined health issues, some of which could be prevented if encouraged access to nature was given. Helping communities to use green space, providing access to nature spaces, whether that's cycle routes, cheaper bus fares or creating pocket parks and green walkways for people to use should be considered when trying to plan for healthier communities. Professor Chatterjee is also the founder of a new MASc, the first of its kind in the world. If you are interested visit the course details at my alma mater, UCL on this link here https://www.ucl.ac.uk/arts-sciences/study/postgraduate-study . “The MASc in Creative Health will create a new generation of socially engaged scholars and practitioners to meet the needs of a changing health, social care and voluntary third sector, where personalised care, social prescribing, health equity and the patient experience are mainstreamed into public health. This programme is the first of its kind in the world, both in terms of the qualification (Masters in Arts & Sciences) and the academic field of study (Creative Health).”For more information on Helen's practice see links on her UCL page https://www.ucl.ac.uk/arts-sciences/people/prof-helen-chatterjee Visit https://journalofbiophilicdesign.com

This week we talk about our own creative health, where we are at, and how we are attempting to ensure our creativity wells don't try up. We use examples from our own writing lives, and give a whole bunch of suggestions for how you, too, can plan and execute your own creative health plans to ensure that you can keep writing, despite the other stresses in your lives.  As Shar says, it's about keeping your muse massaged and your creative health tank topped up, and of course, the writing flowing... 

This week we skip the pleasantries and the warm up and jump right into our conversation surrounding creative health. Tune in as we sit down and talk with Image Activist, Published Photographer and all around cool dude, Alvin C.

Question: How are you a salesman? Mark Landis There is a Documentary about him on Netflix, it’s called “Art & Craft” — he’s one of the most successful art forgers. It’s quite amazing he would recreate Picaso’s, among other things magic markers and canvases bought at walmart. He convinced over 45 museums to hang his paintings on their walls. You or I could not tell the difference between an authentic Picasso and one from Landis. So what makes Picasso’s work with millions and Landis’s a scam? The story! “You might think that the pleasure you get from a painting depends on it’s color and it’s shape and it’s pattern. And if that’s right, it shouldn’t matter whether it’s an original or a forgery. — but our brains don’t work that way —When shown an object or given a plate of food, or shown a face, people’s assessment of it — how much they like it, how valuable it is — is deeply affected by what you tell them about it.” — Paul bloom, Psychology Professor So this is where I say that every successful artist and creator is a salesman. Are you placing your work on in your portfolio unaccompanied by context or explanation? A smart creative displays case studies, not portfolio projects. If you think your art speaks for itself. You are wrong.

Travs Thesis Burn out happens when you don't believe in what you are doing. Avoid Burnout Los says that if you want to avoid burn out, you should not burn out. Overcome Burnout Trav says that if you are currently experiencing burnout, you should try to find a shoulder to lean on. Caleb Meredith "Burn out is when you tell yourself you don't believe in what your doing because that's easier than continuing" Lukaz Morawski "or when what you are doing becomes a routine" Karim "burnout happens when you are stuck in whatever you are doing. When you stop learning the fun in zapped !" Priomh "IMHO burnout happens as a result of not managing your burn rate. I am not referring to financial "burn rate", but physical and mental burn rate. It is so easy to get burned out if you are not clear aboutwhat you are trying to accomplish, so I somewhat agree. Not believing in what you are doing is a huge part of that. "A common factor for my own burnout that I personally have found is that I am not addressing subconscious issues. Dave Allen gives some great advice on this and said the root of most stresses in life is not knowing what you want and not addressing the task at hand. What are you trying to do? How are you going to do it? Write your answers down. Execute on them A.S.A.P Wash Rinse Repeat" Mike Heitzke "I don't disagree necessarily, but that sounds more like "What you realize right before you start looking for other jobs". IMO burnout happens when there's no clear objectives, unclear/unrealistic timelines, a lack of direction, lack of leadership/ownership. Working on a project for any length of time that has any of these characteristics can burn you out." G Bowden "Back in the day a basketball coach I had once told me, "show my a player who is burnt out and I'll show you a player who doesn't recover properly" Seye Kuyinu "I don't agree. I think burnout has a lot to do with managing time and communication. You may love what you do and believe what you do but when you don't know when to prioritize and manage resources(both human and material" Ben Regali "Agree to disagree!
