In this heart-centered episode, CJMiller sits down with singer-songwriter Eugene Kurolap, whose most recent release, “Nothing is Free,” reveals a cinematic evolution in his music. Eugene shares how songwriting isn't something he forces—it arrives through antennae mode, a deep listening to the universe. The first half of a song, he says, is pure intuition. The second half? That's when the mind steps in to shape it.From early choir days to strumming a guitar passed down by his father, Eugene discovered that music was always his Creative DNA. Today, he travels in an old laundry truck, playing wherever the road calls, intent on helping people slow down, breathe, and be present through sound.CJ and Eugene explore:What inspires a songThe power of presence in performanceBalancing words and sound in the creative processThe influence of artists like Trevor HallHis listener-led “Genie Club” music experienceLearn more or commission a personalized song at eugene-music.com Eugene is also available for crafting custom songs for anniversaries, weddings, and meaningful milestones—gifts that last a lifetime.Want to learn more about CJ Miller?

In this episode, CJ welcomes artist, musician, and spiritual creator Ariel Basso, whose entire life is devoted to following the breadcrumbs of Spirit. Ariel lives nomadically, led by inner guidance and a mission to create sacred, healing spaces through art, sound, and vibration. From painting symbolic language to playing ancient wind instruments like the didgeridoo, Ariel's work becomes a living dialogue with the Divine.He shares his transformative journey from grief and depression to a powerful spiritual awakening in his teens, which launched a “spiritual boot camp” of meditation, prayer, stretching, and journaling. That period gave birth to his lifelong vow: to create only what celebrates unity and Spirit.Ariel discusses his show at Northwood Art & Music House, his philosophy of vibrational sound therapy, and how circles in ancient mysticism have shaped his meditative art practice. He and CJ explore themes of joy, creative flow, and listening to Creative Intelligence in the moment—whether painting, performing, or simply breathing.Whether you're an artist, a seeker, or someone longing to reconnect with sacred expression, this conversation is an invitation to listen deeply, create bravely, and walk your own path guided by Spirit.For more information on Ariel visit, https://www.arielbasso.com/For more information on CJ, visit, https://www.spiritualartisttoday.com/Want to learn more about CJ Miller?

In this soul-stirring episode, CJMiller dives deep into the heart of originality in the creative process. Sparked by a listener's comment that struck a nerve, “Little CJ” makes an honest appearance—offended, vulnerable, and ready to set the record straight.CJ shares why he refuses to teach style mimicry—and how his method is rooted in helping artists discover their unique mark. Through music, mindfulness, somatic movement, spiritual asemic practices, and even back-and-forth dueling exercises, he guides students into the sacred space where true originality lives.He also opens up about a painful past experience with a teacher who insisted that everyone paint like him—and how that moment shaped CJ's commitment to honoring creative individuality.This episode is a rallying cry for trusting your inner voice, not the loudest voice in the room. Whether you're an artist, seeker, or spiritual traveler, it's a powerful reminder:You don't have to copy anyone to be great. You already are.Want to learn more about CJ Miller?

In this inspiring episode, CJ Miller shares a deeply personal story about waiting for a sign from Spirit—and the pivotal lesson he learned about the power of setting an intention. Guided by Dr. Petra's wisdom, CJ realized that Spirit knows our gifts, but as co-creators, we must choose and ask.Reflecting on Matthew 7:7-8 — "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you" — CJ explores how intention activates the creative process. He encourages listeners to claim their desires with clarity and participate fully in co-creation.Through mindful creative practices and the art of self-discovery, CJ reveals how we are all spiritually connected—and reminds us that there are as many possibilities as stars in the sky. The episode closes with a simple yet powerful visualization to help you set your own sacred intention today.Want to learn more about CJ Miller?

In this soulful episode, CJ Miller speaks with contemporary artist Victoria Tara, whose captivating paintings emerge from meditation, healing, and devotion. Raised by the Sea of Azov in southeastern Ukraine and now rooted in Miami, Victoria blends Eastern and Western traditions to create visual meditations—paintings that act as portals to inner peace.She shares the moment her artistic path became clear while participating in Kumbh Mela, the world's largest spiritual gathering at the sacred river Sangam, where dualities dissolve and Oneness is remembered. In the river, she received a vision and a word: Yantra—the ancient Hindu symbol of divine geometry. Today, she leads workshops where participants paint yantras as intentional meditations.Victoria and CJ explore the role of stillness, the symbolic power of the lotus flower, and what it means to paint from a place beyond thought. Her work invites us into the space between the sounds, where the essence of light—beyond any name—reveals itself.Art becomes the practice. The painting becomes the prayer. Visit her at victoriatara.com and on Instagram @victoria.tara.artWant to learn more about CJ Miller?

Belief systems can get in the way of recognizing that we are love, and that Creative Intelligence operates through us naturally—if we let it. In this episode, host CJMiller explores how limiting beliefs block our creativity and spiritual flow. He shares personal stories, including a conversation with a friend who reminded him of the simple but powerful practice: Release and Replace. If you believe “I'm not worthy” or “I'm not an artist”, Spirit—Creative Intelligence—can only reach you as far as you allow. Even that lunch conversation, CJ notes, was an example of Creative Intelligence speaking through another. CJ also reflects on his upbringing in a critical family, learning to recognize old habits of focusing on what's wrong and choosing instead to replace that focus with gratitude—a practice that serves both in life and in the art studio. The message? Notice what's working. This isn't just about painting. It's about how you move through life, how you speak to yourself, and how you believe in your own creative power. If you've ever told yourself “I'm not an artist”, this episode invites you to release that belief—and replace it with something like: “I am a creator. I get better and better every day.” CJ also shares details about his upcoming Spiritual Artist Retreat, where participants will walk a labyrinth to practice releasing a limiting belief and making space for something new to emerge.

In this episode, I share a real-life moment of being emotionally triggered after a phone call from my mother—and how that experience became the perfect opportunity to walk through the Receptivity Chart, a visual model I use in my coaching and retreats. Rather than getting stuck in reaction, I used this moment to check in with myself: Where am I on the chart? What's blocking my ability to receive guidance from Creative Intelligence? Our thoughts, emotions, beliefs, and old pain patterns—what Eckhart Tolle would call the “pain body”—can cloud our inner channel and disconnect us from flow. When I find myself blocked, I pause. I surrender to what's happening, speak about myself in the third person to get perspective, write it out, and ask: Do I still believe this? Is this mine, or something I inherited? These practices gently clear the static and return me to presence. If you'd like to follow along visually, you can download a copy of the Receptivity Chart under the Practice Guides tab at spiritualartisttoday.com. It's a powerful reminder that while we can't always control being triggered, we can choose how we return to alignment. At the end of this episode, CJ does a short guided meditation to ease you through a triggering experience. For more information on CJ, visit his website www.spiritualartistoday.com.

In this episode, CJ Miller shares a foundational insight for every creative: your best art doesn't start with materials or technique—it starts with your state of being. While many artists focus on what board to use or how to blend colors, CJ invites us to explore what he calls the space before creation—that quiet, present-centered awareness where alignment begins. As a spiritual artist, he's learned that when he first connects with his emotions, body, and inner presence, his creative work becomes more powerful, intuitive, and alive. CJ introduces his Alignment and Receptivity model—a simple but profound tool to monitor your creative state—and explains why your first job as an artist is to step into presence. When you're in alignment, you can hear Creative Intelligence speak. You're not forcing art into existence—you're allowing it. “Don't focus so much on what you're doing. Hold it lightly. But don't lose yourself in unconsciousness.” If you've ever felt blocked or disconnected in the studio, this episode offers a powerful reframe:  Align first. Then apply your technique. That's where the real art begins. For more information, visit www.spiritualartisttoday.com or purchases CJ's book, "The Spiritual Artist" on Amazon. 

In this heartfelt episode, CJMiller shares a personal story about teaching his son to drive—and the spiritual metaphor that unfolded along the way. While navigating Central Expressway, a car sped by, weaving in and out of traffic. Instead of reacting, CJ pulled aside and let it pass. It became the perfect teaching moment: when someone operates from chaotic or aggressive energy, you don't have to match it. Let them meet their own energy. This story expands into a larger reflection on life. As CJ explains to his son, everything operates on a spiritual level. The consciousness of a reckless driver will eventually attract a similar consciousness. Our job is to hold steady—to stay centered in love. When we react, retaliate, or try to “win,” we step away from our love base. Drawing inspiration from Abraham-Hicks and the concept of staying in the “vortex,” CJ explores the challenge of maintaining spiritual alignment in a world that constantly pulls us toward fear, outrage, and distraction. Whether it's doomscrolling on social media, toxic conversations, or drama-driven entertainment, we're being called to a higher practice: holding the vibration of Love. Be the broader Love. This isn't romantic love—it's the universal Love that ancient cultures and spiritual traditions have named again and again. The Greeks called it Agape. In Buddhism, it's Mettā—loving-kindness. In Hinduism, Bhakti. In Catholic mysticism, Caritas. In New Thought, it is the Creative Intelligence behind all form—Love as a force that moves through everything and asks for nothing in return. CJ shares how he's begun pulling back from negative media and limiting his exposure to people who feed off fear and anger—not out of judgment, but to protect and nurture his own vibration. He encourages you to do the same: gently guide conversations back toward light, or walk away when necessary. We're often taught that we have to fix the problems we see. But sometimes, the highest form of action is demonstration. Be the lighthouse. Engage in passive resistance. Send money to organizations you believe in. Set intentions, offer prayers, donate to the disadvantaged. Staying in Love Consciousness is enough. Don't push against—go toward Agape Love. This episode is a gentle yet powerful reminder: we don't fix the world by sinking to its level. We change it by holding our ground in Love, and letting others rise to meet us there—when they're ready.

While tending to the garden, The Spiritual Artist Podcast host CJ Miller reflects on the deeper spiritual truths revealed through nature. Inspired by the resilience of a simple dandelion, CJ explores how Creative Intelligence expresses itself through diversity, adaptability, and the unstoppable force of life.In response to those who seek to limit the freedoms of others, CJ shifts focus to the spiritual reality—one where God, in infinite wisdom, operates through love. Just as nature finds a way to thrive despite obstacles, so too do truth, freedom, and diversity.Through the lens of the natural world, CJ shares how shifting perspective can reveal deeper meaning. Even what is labeled as a nuisance—like dandelions—has a role to play in the grand design, benefiting pollinators and enriching the ecosystem. In the same way, every expression of life holds value.The power of Spirit cannot be stopped. While temporary forces may appear to dominate, nature always finds a way. Spirit always prevails. Diversity is not just supported by God—it is God's very demonstration.

One Act of DefianceIn this short podcast, CJ Miller shares how he steps into love and encourages listeners to take one simple yet powerful act of defiance.Start your morning with this practice:"I release fear and anxiety, for I am not in the future.I release guilt and anger, for I am not in the past.I am here, now.In this moment, I choose love, appreciation, and gratitude.I trust Creative Intelligence to guide me.I breathe. I listen. I simply am."CJ invites you to take one act of defiance—whether it's boycotting a business, reaching out to someone with kindness, or making a conscious choice that aligns with love. While we can't control the whole world, each small act empowers us to move forward with purpose.

In this inspiring and thought-provoking episode, International Coach and Senior Trainer for the More to Life Foundation, Ann McMaster, joins CJ Miller to explore how personal sovereignty and intuitive wisdom guide us toward our Real Reality. Ann, a psychotherapist and author of Lifeshocks, shares how the interplay of mind, heart, and gut intelligence allows us to move beyond social conditioning and cultural scripts to live authentically. Together, they discuss the concept of boundaries and how these not only protect our essence but also create the freedom to navigate relationships, social media, and life's challenges with personal empowerment and clarity. Ann introduces practical tools like the Say-Do-Feel alignment to assess trust and authenticity in ourselves and others. By tuning into gut intuition and adopting "soft eyes," Ann explains how we can take in a broader perspective, discerning reality while filtering out fear-based narratives. Drawing from neuroscience, she highlights the Reticular Activating System, a mechanism in the brain that aligns perception with our emotional focus. Whether navigating social media or personal relationships, Ann encourages listeners to direct their attention toward what they do want to manifest, using intentional focus and mindful attention to shape their lives. The conversation touches on the profound connection between mind, heart, and gut, offering practical exercises to ground and reconnect with one's essence. Ann guides listeners through a powerful heart-centered grounding technique that aligns the body, calms panic, and restores clarity. CJ shares his own practice of presence and the importance of filtering out fear-based content to avoid disconnection from self, including his use of affirmative prayer as a tool to focus on desired outcomes and align with Creative Intelligence. This episode is a beautiful invitation to embrace your personal sovereignty: follow your heart, trust your gut, and honor your unique journey by establishing boundaries that maintain personal alignment and sovereignty. Through tools like mindful attention, discernment, and love-based action, listeners are empowered to remain connected to their essence while supporting others in their authenticity. Form truly follows energy—and when you align with your truth, life unfolds with greater ease and flow. For more information on Ann McMaster visit, https://annmcmaster.com/.

Consider for a moment: the Universe is always in creation. Living is essentially a creative act. You may not be a singer, a painter or a poet, or think of yourself as an artist. Yet, because you are alive, part of the Universal field, you are in creation. You are a creator. I often speak about Creative Intelligence. Not many people do, but my guest today does. I'm excited to see where we connect and what we might create today. Stay with us.Artist, Author, and Speaker Christopher J. Miller (CJ) considers himself a lifelong Spiritual learner. His awareness in the art studio has taught him many lessons. Many people try to describe their experience “in the zone” or “in the flow” during the creative process. Some claim that a Greater Power or Divine Guidance assisted them. But what is this state of consciousness, and how do we replicate it?CJ rediscovers his connection to Creative Intelligence whenever he enters his art studio. His book, The Spiritual Artist, his retreats, and podcasts help people recognize their Creative DNA, find their inner calling, and recognize their connection to All that Is.Find CJ Miller at: https://www.spiritualartisttoday.com/ linkedin.com/in/christopher-miller-2868b98 https://www.instagram.com/@cjmillerart https://www.youtube.com/@thespiritualartist123Find Laurie Seymour at https://thebacainstitute.com/ .Follow Wisdom Talk Radio on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wisdomtalkradio Subscribe on Apple.Want to reach out to me?

In this episode of "The Spiritual Artist Podcast", Christopher J. Miller interviews Tonya Henderson, an artist, intuitive, and inspiring art business coach dedicated to empowering women through her unique approach to art and energy work. Tonya, who originally trained in psychometry, views art-making as a journey, focusing on the joy of creating rather than the end product. Tonya's classes and workshops are designed not only to teach the technical aspects of art but to nurture everyone's personal growth, helping them tap into their inner wisdom and Creative Intelligence. Throughout the conversation, Tonya delves into the importance of being fully present in the creative process, emphasizing that there is no right or wrong in art. She believes that the role of a teacher is to ensure students have fun, find their own magic, and trust the flow of creativity. Tonya explains that art often has a way of "creating itself," as it channels through the artist from a higher source. She and CJ discuss how everyone can access the 'Creative Pool,' a space of infinite ideas, by opening themselves up to Divine Intelligence, which, according to Tonya, always brings forth goodness. Tonya also discusses her intuitive art practice, where she creates Personal Energy Portraits, offering art readings that tap into the unique energy of her clients. She shares her experiences as an intuitive reader, explaining how thoughts and energy fields can influence our physical and emotional well-being. Tonya describes how she connects with Divine Intelligence to bring forward the right message for each client, often discovering deeper meanings in her artwork. Her purpose, she says, is to serve others, recognizing that we are all reflections of one another, adding to the fabric of humanity with each act of service. 

Ceremonial fires have been used in most cultures for millenia. Often these fires just have a symbolic purpose, but the Vedic worldview has a particular use of fire, in combination with sounds and offerings, which has a specific impact on consciousness itself.In this episode, Thom gives an entry-level view of yagyas, a fascinating and specialized process that can be used to awaken impulses of creative intelligence and allow us to reveal more of what Nature intends for us. A yagya is a bridge between desire and manifestation, so to speak, giving us a helping hand to make our potential a reality.Episode Highlights:[00:45] Sanskrit - The Unambiguous Language[03:41] Awakening the Impulses of Creative Intelligence[05:59] Name and Form are Infinitely Correlated Indeed[07:50] Serving the Intention of the Knower[10:38] Stirring the Depths of Consciousness[12:27] Agni - The Sound Nature Makes When Intending Fire[15:29] Bring Forth All the Gifts[18:22] Favorable Conditions in the Consciousness of the Knower[20:06] Increasing CapabilityUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

In this episode, CJ discusses the importance of monitoring our behaviors and beliefs. What can we learn about ourselves?   CJ shares his story of martyrdom. He noticed that he had surrounded himself with a world of need. He looked beneath the apparent belief of "I choose to help others" to understand how his behavior serves him. He urges the listener to look behind their belief system and ask themselves: what does this behavior give me? How does it serve me? He realizes the behavior might be based on insecurity and unworthiness.  CJ created a full-time job caring for others but realizes he is always at choice. He doesn't need to do anything to validate himself or justify his worth. Does he want to keep being a martyr? You don't need to validate yourself.  Change is a slow, gradual process. He decides to make one small change in his life: he will sell his indoor fish tank.  He removed his indoor fish tank to move his life in the right direction.  Do I still need to be the world's caregiver? CJ urges the listener to make one change in their life.  Finally, CJ reminds the listener to trust that Creative Intelligence/God cares for everything. Trust that Creative Intelligence is working for you and directing you.  Is there a behavior that you repeat automatically? Can you let it go? Let it out of your life.

Hello to you listening in Invercargill, New Zealand!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.From the novel Love in the Time of Cholera: “He allowed himself to be swayed by his conviction that human beings are not born once and for all on the day their mothers give birth to them, but that life obliges them over and over again to give birth to themselves.” [ ~ Gabriel García Márquez]Our rebirth manifests as a story, and another, and another, and another.In my very earliest days as a beginning storyteller I learned 3 lessons that helped develop my role as a “story doula” or midwife to stories.One. Each person knows the story they want to tell; all they need is someone to listen it out of them.Two. When we listen the story out of another we do so with respect, delight, and appreciation.Three. Listening out the story in this way awakens the creative intelligence of the storyteller.Story Prompt: What rebirth are you listening for?

In episode #125, Oliver continues the Big Book Awakening series by reading from Chapter 4, We Agnostics, page 48, "The prosaic steel girder is a mass of electrons whirling around each other at incredible speed. These tiny bodies are governed by precise laws, and these laws hold true throughout the material world. Science tells us so. We have no reason to doubt it. When, however, the perfectly logical assumption is suggested that underneath the material world and life as we see it, there is an All Powerful, Guiding, Creative Intelligence, right there our perverse streak comes to the surface and we laboriously set out to convince ourselves it isn't so."

There is a force behind all things, and Chris calls it Creative Intelligence. He sees this force most clearly in the natural world, where an abundance of plant and animal life continues to increase and multiply. He shares that to practice creativity, we must first form a belief. We must believe that what we desire is possible. Then, we must continue to expand the boundaries of that belief to experience greater and greater creativity. He shares how this process worked for him in 2023, when he left a secure corporate position to pursue his art, speaking, and teaching practice. Chris discusses his most recent experience going beyond his edge of belief by participating in a pop-up art show in Dallas. His installation fees were higher than expected, throwing him into a fear spiral. He began to question his belief in Creative Intelligence.As artists, we must have faith and belief by stepping out and trying new things. Are there things beyond your comfort zone? Is the idea of that goal pushing beyond your belief? Do you really believe? What to you do when you challenge the edge of your belief? Write down your desire.  When we set our desires, we attract countless possibilities. Then, review your life history and check all of the times you stepped beyond your comfort zone and were met with success. Write down at least ten things. These are miracles that occurred in your life. Shore up your belief and support it with previous success. Everything you have achieved came from a creative desire and was answered by Creative Intelligence.Next, list what you can believe in. Start small and create a possibility list. If I can believe this, then maybe, just maybe, I can believe that. As you go into the new year, expand your belief. Finally, see yourself achieving what you desire in your mind's eye.  Trust that Creative Intelligence will deliver. For more information, visit www.spiritualartistoday.com.

You may have heard of artificial intelligence, but what about creative intelligence?  Alex Collmer, CEO of VidMob, joined me on SEJ Show to talk about creative intelligence and its role in helping marketers, especially in today's market conditions.  Gain insight into how creative intelligence optimizations and data transparency can help you make the right decision when running your creative campaigns.  Find out how it plays in with privacy updates and running campaigns across various ad networks, mobile devices, and social media apps.   One of the things that creative intelligence can do is help people get a reality check on how original and unique that creative is vis-a-vis the myriad of things in the market today. It's a tool to help people monitor culture to understand how trends are progressing and when the moment has passed. –Alex Collmer,15:34 Before, it was about getting the click to go to the site. Now everything is so intertwined. It has to be quite a chore for a creative team to fill in all the blanks and then utilize that data to alter, refresh, or make those adaptations to the creative itself. –Loren Baker, 03:54 This isn't A/B testing. You know that that's sort of like the thing we did yesterday. This is a whole new world and opens up visibility into the why of creativity for the first time. –Alex Collmer, 07:20   [00:00] - About Alex. [08:03] - How creative intelligence relates to AI. [10:53] - How fast a campaign gets creative feedback. [13:40] - Where originality comes in. [17:55] - How important is Creative Intelligence regarding data privacy? [19:46] - Can Creative Intelligence report on demographics? [21:16] - Can you optimize for different age groups simultaneously? [22:57] - Can data sync from handheld devices to traditional advertising? [25:20] - Alex's take on Augmented Reality and Snap. [31:37] - Insights on rich media style advertising on Amazon.   Resources mentioned:  VidMob - https://www.vidmob.com/   We built technology to enable people to ingest all of that creative they might be running across an account on Meta, YouTube, TikTok, or Amazon. We process those billions of creative attribute signals and pull all the performance information from those platforms. The likes, clicks, views, engagement metrics, and purchases are included. –Alex Collmer, 06:22 Intelligent creative gives people data they can react to in real-time in a software platform that enables them to be very agile in their creatives. They can optimize the market and dramatically improve the results they see from their campaigns.–Alex Collmer, 10:35 As the media side loses effectiveness, the creative side has to take over more of the responsibility. –Alex Collmer, 19:14   For more content like this, subscribe to our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/searchenginejournal Are you looking to keep up with current and effective digital marketing today?

In this talk, Rev Lee discusses that ”Creative Intelligence hears everything. Every thought, word and emotion are heard and are used to create your life experience. How aware and clear are you about the message you are giving your creative mind.”

Tom brought me something I have no experience with, Scalar Energy, that said, I believe I do know more than I thought. I've been exploring Devine Energy since my inception to 12 Step Recovery. Kind of like how we encourage folks to engage with a God of their understanding, Devine Energy, Spirit of the Universe, Father Sky, Creative Intelligence, Supreme Being... Call it what you will, and I truly don't think this Force cares what we call it - It only cares if we do, it wants us too. So... Scalar Energy - Scalar Light emitted continuously from the Sun of our Solar System, and all the Stars in the Universe. The Architect of Life - Scalar Light is the animating life force of all spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical activity in the Universe. The Divine Intelligence - Scalar Light is omnipresent and serves as the carrier wave of all intelligence and information in the Universe. Tom is offering a 15 day free trial - all you got to is go to https://www.scalarlight.com , and follow the instructions. Tom Paladino is a researcher and humanitarian seeking to make a difference in the world by providing people with the education and tools to restore optimal health, and by helping enhance their quality of life. Thank you for allowing me to participate in my recover in this manner today! Enjoy! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/dan-reeves8/support

Corry MacDonald is a Creative Healer with over 20 years of cross-cultural living in 5 countries. She helps people activate their Creative Intelligence transforming challenges into wisdom and information through her signature creative method for accessing infinite potentials and inner joy.  As a first time author, in the realm of inner and outer transformation, Corry shares her findings from both her personal life experiences and from those she has had the honor of working within both workshops and private sessions. ​One of Corry's loves is teaching people how to leverage and pivot heavy-hued emotions and experiences into the light, intelligence, and joy-filled living to open them to their innate Creative Intelligence. Corry especially enjoys working with those who don't realize the infinite wealth of creative power they hold.​If you're someone who thinks you're not creative, it's essential you recognize who you truly are. You are a creative powerhouse and the artist of your life. I want you to let go of the word "art" related to famous artists or galleries, and I want you to consider accepting the word "art" as energy in motion. Once you receive the word art as therapy, you will understand that we are all artists. Let go of the stigma of "I am not an artist," and let's start healing.Purchase a copy of Corry's book: https://amzn.to/3tbP992Find more stories regarding the IFB movement by visiting:– preacherboysdoc.com– https://www.facebook.com/preacherboysdoc/– https://twitter.com/preacherboysdoc– https://www.instagram.com/preacherboysdoc/To connect with a community who share the Preacher Boys Podcast mission to expose abuse in the IFB, join the OFFICIAL Preacher Boys Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1403898676438188/Support the Show:https://www.patreon.com/preacherboysSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/preacher-boys-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
