Podcasts about creative resistance

If part of why you write is because you have some things to share from a life well- or hard- or fully lived, then you're in good company. Personal writing is about connection, and making sense of our experience, and this week's guest, Sari Botton, knows a thing or two about what brings writers to the page. She is a champion of personal writing and memoir, and is going to share about contributing, about her own writing process and why it's hard to put personal things into the world, and so much more—including how to stay the course during these insane times we're living in and through.

He reflects on his childhood, where a lack of constant stimulation led him to develop his artistic skills. Today, with infinite digital distractions, people must intentionally carve out space to be alone with their thoughts to create work that carries deep personal intention rather than just remixing external influences.The Struggle to Defend Attention – Stewart and Andrew discuss how modern digital platforms, particularly social media, are designed to hijack human attention through powerful AI-driven engagement loops. These mechanisms prioritize negative emotions and instant gratification, making it increasingly difficult for individuals to focus on deep, meaningful work. They suggest that future AI advancements could paradoxically help free people from screens, allowing them to engage with technology in a more intentional and productive way.AI as a Creative Partner—But Not Yet a True Challenger – While AI is already being used in creative fields, such as Hollywood's subtle use of AI for film corrections, it currently lacks the ability to provide meaningful pushback or true creative debate. Andrew argues that the best creative partners challenge ideas rather than just assist with execution, and AI's tendency to be agreeable and non-confrontational makes it a less valuable collaborator for artists who need critical feedback to refine their work.The Pendulum Swing of Human and Technological Aesthetics – Throughout history, every major technological advancement in the arts has been met with a counter-movement embracing raw, organic expression. Just as the rise of synthesizers in music led to a renewed interest in acoustic and folk styles, the rapid expansion of AI-generated art may inspire a resurgence of appreciation for handcrafted, deeply personal artistic works. The human yearning for tactile, real-world experiences will likely grow in response to AI's increasing role in creative production.The Enduring Value of Art Beyond Economic Utility – In a world increasingly shaped by economic efficiency and optimization, Andrew stresses the need to reaffirm the intrinsic value of art. While capitalism dominates, the real significance of artistic expression lies in its ability to move people, create connection, and offer meaning beyond financial metrics. This perspective is especially crucial in an era where AI-generated content is flooding the creative landscape, potentially diluting the sense of personal expression that defines human art.The Need for Intentionality in Using AI – AI's potential to streamline work processes and enhance creative output depends on how humans choose to engage with it. Stewart notes that while AI can be a powerful tool for structuring time and filtering distractions, it can also easily pull people into mindless consumption. The challenge lies in using AI with clear intention—leveraging it to automate mundane tasks while preserving the uniquely human aspects of ideation, storytelling, and artistic vision.The Role of Poetry and Language in Reclaiming Humanity – In a technology-driven world where efficiency is prioritized over depth, poetry serves as a reminder of the human experience. Andrew highlights the power of poets and clowns—figures often dismissed as impractical—as essential in preserving creativity, playfulness, and emotional depth. He suggests that valuing poetry and artistic language can help counterbalance the growing mechanization of culture, keeping human expression at the forefront of civilization's evolution.

As you journey deeper into your creative path, or embark on any positive endeavor in life, you'll inevitably encounter what author Steven Pressfield calls ‘Resistance'—an internal force that challenges your courage and tests your readiness. To us this Resistance might feel like fear of failure, fear of success, fear of rejection, self-doubt, shame, distraction, procrastination, confusion, temptation to indulge in vices or sexual urges.In this conversation, I explore the themes of creativity, resistance, and personal growth.We discuss the concept of resistance as an inner force that challenges individuals on their creative journeys, emphasizing the importance of recognizing and overcoming these obstacles. The discussion also delves into the idea of repeating patterns that hold us back in our lives, and how to notice these as “anti-clues”.Dive in now to become more fired up on your heroic creative journey and learn to transform resistance into wisdom and strength!Support the online store and join the Seekers community:http://seekersoftheeternal.com/Books Mentioned:The Artist's JourneyThe War of ArtTreasure Hunt

From Amy:I met Nicole Diaz in the life-coaching world around the time that I was first envisioning my online community for real-life writers. She demonstrated a brilliant understanding of the creative process, and I had this idea of hosting Idea Parties as the centerpiece of my work with writing groups, with Parker Palmer's work as my model. Nicole was a Parker Palmer fan too. So for a few years, we collaborated to host once-a-month calls on Saturday mornings where we let beautiful words draw us into our writing.Afterwards, people spoke their voices into the room, and nobody corrected or coached or edited each other. Instead, we let you be at the heart of your story and reflected your words back. And books began to be written and friendships began to be made.Together, Nicole and I developed a flexible and potent Idea Party format that works to this day, even after she has moved on.There were other experiments Nicole and I tried, among them this little series of three podcasts. It was going to be available in the community library only, as one of many exclusive features. Since then I've streamlined my online Writing Circle space to center on writing calls and there's no reason to house a three-part podcast series with a leader who's no longer there.On the other hand, Nicole and I agree that these three episodes would make a beautiful Winter Solstice gift to YOU, my podcast listeners, at a time when creativity could bring us all comfort if we could just calm down about the creative process itself.These are shorter than my other episodes, and I find talking with Nicole delightful. I hope you enjoy.Happy holiday season.Love, AmyPS–Nicole sends her love too.Nicole Diaz is a creativity coach and business strategist.

In the mid-1980s, when Nava Atlas released her first cookbook, Vegetariana, there were only about a dozen vegetarian cookbook authors in mainstream publishing. At the time, vegetarianism was considered unconventional, and veganism was virtually unknown to the general public. Nava was one of the pioneers pushing plant-based cuisine forward when it was still a niche, almost radical, lifestyle choice. Today, with the plant-based movement firmly in the mainstream, Nava's influence has grown alongside it. Veganism is now ubiquitous in bestselling cookbooks, food blogs, social media, and stores. A Personal Journey from Vegetarianism to Veganism Nava's personal journey from vegetarianism to veganism reflects this cultural shift. She initially turned away from meat in her teens, driven by instinct rather than access to much information about animal welfare. As she became more aware of the ethical and environmental consequences of animal agriculture, she and her family transitioned to a fully vegan lifestyle. A visit to a dairy farm, where she learned about the realities of dairy production, was a key turning point, reinforcing her decision to align her lifestyle with her values. Her family embraced the change, and her two children remain committed vegans today. Blending Art and Cuisine As a lifelong artist, Nava combines her creativity with cooking. Her early cookbooks were a blend of hand-drawn illustrations and food lore, creating a unique artistic approach to plant-based cuisine. Over the years, her cookbooks have evolved into visually stunning collections, with professional photography showcasing the beauty of plant-based dishes. Titles like Vegan Soups and Hearty Stews for All Seasons highlight Nava's ability to make plant-based eating approachable, with simple, delicious recipes that emphasize ease and flavor. The Role of Family in Embracing Compassionate Living Family has played a significant role in Nava's plant-based journey. From raising her children as vegetarians to fully embracing veganism as a family, she has always prioritized compassion and ethics in her lifestyle. Her children, who have never eaten meat, are now adults and remain dedicated vegans, reflecting the deep impact of her teachings. Full post at www.HealthScience.org/107-Nava-Atlas

In this episode we're exploring creative resistance and climate change, through an intergenerational conversation between elder and younger organizers based in rural New Mexico, Puerto Rico, and southwest Virginia who have been resisting the state and advocating for climate justice in a myriad of ways. We know that colonization is the single greatest contributor to climate change and injustice over the past 500 years, which is inherently interwoven with militarism, imperialism, and extractive economies the world over. We're bringing together elder and younger organizers to talk about “living through the apocalypse” many times over, fighting for our lives and communities through the land and water, and what solutions we see as necessary to thrive into the just futures we know to be possible.  This episode is hosted by alyzza may (they/them) based in Greensboro, North Carolina. alyzza is an angelic troublemaker, cultural organizer, and member of the National Council of Elders podcast team.  Joining alyzza in this conversation are: Elder Kathy 'Wan Povi' Sanchez, (she/her) based in San Ildefonso Pueblo, New Mexico who is a member of NCOE, and a founding elder with Tewa Women United. Elder Myrna Pagan, (she/her) based in Vieques, Puerto Rico who is a member of NCOE, the founder of Vidas Viequenses Valen an environmental movement working for peace and justice, and a founding member of Radio Vieques, Educational Community Radio.  Leif Hurt, (they/them) based in southwest Virginia, who is an organizer with Protect Our Water, Heritage, Rights (POWHR): an interstate coalition representing individuals and groups from Virginia and West Virginia dedicated to protecting water, land, and communities from harms caused by the expansion of fossil fuel infrastructure, including the Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP).

This episode is a recording of a panel conversation that took place at the University of Oxford's Blavatnik School of Government during the RISE Annual Conference in September 2023. For the purposes of clarity and length, this podcast is an edited version of the conversation.The panel featured Nompumelelo Mohohlwane from the Department of Basic Education in South Africa; Rachel Hinton from the UK's Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office; and former RISE Research Director, Lant Pritchett. This conversation was moderated by Laura Savage from the International Education Funders Group.The panel looks back at the questions that existed at the start of RISE and whether enough has been learnt ten years later. They reflect on the difference between the motivating questions for RISE and the What Works Hub for Global Education. They go on to debate what commitment to learning really means and what cultural shifts are needed for it to materialise, and connected to this, what implementation science really means. The conversation ends with a reflection on the meaning of the thematic shift from systems to implementation.

Fear of failure, imposter syndrome, creative resistance and perfectionism... nothing will stop you more from creating the amazing lit up life that you deserve than these. But how do we break through them? How do we be the brightest and boldest versions of ourselves? That's exactly what we're going to cover in today's episode.

Creative Resistance requires the collective force of creativity that lies within Indigenous people to interpret the messages of the movement, leaving behind unforgettable artwork. In Episode 5 of the LANDBACK For The People, Nick TIlsen sits with members of NDN Collective's Creative Resistance team to unpack the significance of how art carries our movement forward.

Today I expand on a recent TikTok I created about overcoming creative resistance. The idea of resistance is based on Steven Pressfield's book The War of Art. If you are an insecure creative like me — terrified of bringing your ideas to life because of self-doubt, perfectionism, avoidance, anxiety, how can you overcome your creative resistance? By leaning on forces much greater than you, such as spirituality, serving the collective, and becoming a student of nature.

UNSW's Kaldor Centre for International Refugee Law and Refugee Advice and Casework Service (RACS) co-hosted a discussion held on 9 February 2023 with Behrouz Boochani, as he concluded his first visit to Australia. The discussion explored Behrouz's complicated path to freedom, and the role of courage, collaboration and creativity in challenging a dehumanising asylum system. The first part of the panel featured Madeline Gleeson (Kaldor Centre) and Zaki Haidari (Amnesty International) with Behrouz's translator and collaborator, Moones Mansoubi, and Guardian Australia's Ben Doherty. In the second part of the discussion, Behrouz Boochani and Omid Tofighian join Moones Mansoubi and Ben Doherty for a discussion about the new book, Freedom, Only Freedom (Bloomsbury 2022), and the liberating power of writing, creative relationships and resistance. The panel is hosted by RACS Director Sarah Dale and Kaldor Centre Director Jane McAdam AO.

Ikoi and Liam chat with author Mike Watson about the late great Mark Fisher, the addictive pace of the internet, slow meme movements and the need for reflection, spirituality, mortality, Qanon and Pizzagate, a fair society vs archetypal heroic stories, leftist well-being, selling dirty bath water, being a digital flaneur, the dialectical image, acid communism, helping other people for the sake of it and much much more! "Watson is fast becoming one of the most impressive left analysts of our strange digital era; helping to fill the void left by Mark Fisher's tragic passing. In his new book-part tribute to Fisher, part cultural analysis, part reflections on the Frankfurt school-Watson shows the enduring power of a dialectical approach to capitalist realism and exposes the many ways post-modern neoliberal culture has successfully neutered liberating aesthetics. In the powerful final chapter, Watson rethinks the potential of Frankfurt school critical theory to provide answers, and sketches an inspiring vision of what the acid-left can be. We may not have all the answers, but all of us should be very grateful Watson is on hand to help us ask the right kinds of questions. --Matt McManus, Professor of Politics at Whitman College" References: The Memeing of Mark Fisher: How the Frankfurt School Foresaw Capitalist Realism and What to do About it: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/58455150-the-memeing-of-mark-fisher?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=lOOZj2mqna&rank=1 Can the Left Learn to Meme?: Adorno, Video Gaming, and Stranger Things: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/43731703-can-the-left-learn-to-meme?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=lOOZj2mqna&rank=3 Art Militancy: A Manifesto: https://www.sublationmag.com/post/art-militancy-a-manifesto Mark Fisher | Acid Communism (Unfinished Introduction): https://my-blackout.com/2019/04/25/mark-fisher-acid-communism-unfinished-introduction/ Alpha City: How London Was Captured by the Super-Rich by Rowland Atkinson: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/53986093-alpha-city -- Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/itsnotjustinyourhead Email us with feedback, questions, suggestions at itsnotjustinyourhead@gmail.com.

In late October 2022 Tereneh, Leah and Jenn sat down for one last time to record our final episode for the Other Border Wall Podcast, now in its Third Season. We reflect, laugh, and remember not only this Podcast but all the work we have made together since 2017 as "Creative Resistance to Borders". So much has happened over these past five years - and we are now moving onto other projects but will always hold space and respect for the amazing people we met and worked with together as a collective. We feel so grateful for the work of building community in these many ways, and for all the support we have received. It has been an incredible journey and we wanted to hold space for it with this episode. As we sign off we want to encourage our listeners to stay in solidarity with the incredible work that inspired us and will continue to be a beacon for all of us: Border Angels https://instagram.com/borderangelsofficial Brushfire Press https://instagram.com/brushfirepress No Border Wall https://instagram.com/noborderwall_ltx Thanks so much for being with us during these five years of learning and creative resistance to borders. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/otherborderwall/message

In this episode, Marla Spivack speaks to Yamini Aiyar about her new book, ‘Rewriting the Grammar of the Education System: Delhi's Education Reform (A Tale of Creative Resistance and Creative Disruption)', which documents the introduction of education reforms in Delhi public schools. They discuss some of the challenges faced throughout this reform as well as lessons that emerged from documenting the reform experience. These include the importance of understanding that everyone is part of a larger system which is conditioning the behaviours and actions of people within it, and the necessity (and challenges) of building consensus for learning throughout systems.

Today, let's acknowledge a creative block for it's temporary state of being and address the issue with courage and compassion.

Steven Pressfield is the best-selling author of The War of Art, The Artist's Journey, The Legend of Bagger Vance, Gates of Fire and, his newest novel, which was published earlier this month, A Man at Arms. In this conversation, we talk about Resistance with a capital-R, that diabolical enemy within each of us that tries to keep us from connecting with our highest Self (and each other). We talk fear and love, self-sabotage and leadership, Hero's Journey and Artist's Journey, dreams and discovering ourselves, and tribalism and society, among other things.

In this interview, Kofi Bonne, author of Black Landscapes Matter and Professor of Landscape Architecture at NC State University in the College of Design, discusses his experience as a black landscape architect, the importance of making space for the next generation of black landscape architects, and challenging white supremacy in design education. In this conversation, Divine and Kofi explore what constitutes a black landscape, from plantations to black towns, and how culture and identity shapes the landscape. In the context of erasing Black excellence and innovation from the landscape origin story, Kofi calls for a retelling of this history as a first step towards better collective problem solving and consensus building within the field of landscape architecture.

If you’ve ever had trouble getting motivated to do the creative work you’re not alone! In this week’s episode I’m guiding Laura through this very common problem as she prepares for her second solo show. As I get to grips with the challenges facing Laura, I give her some tips as well as kindly calling her out on some of the patterns that I’ve witnessed since mentoring Laura through her first exhibition in season 1 of the podcast. Breaking patterns is never easy for any of us, so listen in as I nurture Laura toward taking the steps to overcome this resistance. Some of the key moments in this episode are; Setting parameters to induce creative freedom Not rushing to the finish line and leaning into the ‘dreamy’ phase of creating without pressure. Giving yourself permission to create bad art and forgive yourself again and again. Recovering from perfectionism by working on a volume of work at once. Enjoy the episode!

Been stuck in a bit of an overthinking rut lately, particularly with my YouTube channel. But the interesting thing I've noticed, is that all the feelings of self doubt and critique I feel for my YouTube videos, are the exact same feelings I get before I sit down to record a podcast, the difference? I have developed an ability to completely ignore those voices when it comes to my podcast, yet can't seem to shake them for my YouTube... Why is that? Why is it that in one part of my life I have something under control, and in another that same thing is completely destroying my potential to make the changes I know I need to make in my life? Today I spoke all about this topic, and how I believe Steven Pressfield's Idea of "Resistance" and "Turning Pro" are the answer to my problem. I hope you enjoy this weeks episode!

Held on the occasion of the groundbreaking exhibition IndiVisible: African-Native American Lives in the Americas, this symposium aimed to bring visibility to African-Native American lives and initiate a healing dialogue on African-Native American experiences for people of all backgrounds. The program took place before a lively, standing-room-only audience on November 13, 2009, in the National Museum of the American Indian’s Rasmuson Theater in Washington, D.C. The scholarly forum expanded and enhanced the exhibition’s compelling themes of race and policy, creative resistance, blended communities, and African-Native lifeways. In illuminating the relationships between African Americans and Native Americans that developed over centuries, the symposium offered a vital new understanding of how these life experiences have become an essential part of our American identity.
