Podcasts about creativity coaching

In this encore episode of The Creative Genius Podcast, with a brand new intro - I revisit a powerful conversation with the wise and insightful Jane Dunnewold. In a time of uncertainty and upheaval, I'm reflecting on the emotional rollercoaster so many of us are experiencing—fear, despair, hope, and the flickering light of creativity. I am candidly shares my own struggle with doom scrolling, the paralysis it caused, and the steps I am taking to reclaim my inner peace.Jane's wisdom offers a timely and profound exploration of the inner bullies that live within us—those relentless voices of self-doubt, fear, and unworthiness that hold us back. I connect this concept to the larger external forces at play in the world today, recognizing that until we learn to defeat the bullies in our own minds, we will struggle to stand up to the ones outside of us.This episode is an invitation to step into deeper self-awareness, to recognize the power of creativity as a means of resistance, and to become part of the essential ‘islands of sanity' in a chaotic world. Join me as I share my thoughts, vulnerabilities and inspiration along with, Jane's transformative insights, and a heartfelt call to reconnect with creativity as an act of personal and collective resilience.Join an island of sanity inside the Creative Genius Patreon

Our brain's creative juices are almost always working. But how often do we harness the power of these? Especially, when well-settled in our business, we tend to ignore these thoughts and enjoy being in the comfort zone. But with the current dynamic business environment, it is critical to constantly experiment with creativity for better systems, to increase demand and eventually profits of your business. In this episode, we discuss the importance of this creativity and how to harness its fruits.  [00:37] - About Camila Kaul  Camila is the founder of Just a Squiggle, which is a business creativity coaching company.

Episode's summary In this powerful episode, we have the honor of welcoming Jamie Wiggins, a transformational healer, and warm wisdom holder. Jamie shares her personal journey of healing from trauma and physical pain, starting from her experience of being molested at 14 and not being believed when she shared her story.   Through her impulse towards healing, writing, and art, Jamie found a deeper healing experience for herself and her clients. We discuss her passion for supporting women in connecting with the source of vitality within themselves and accessing their own infinite creative potential. We explore the power of dreams and the importance of empowering young women to understand the magic within their bodies. Jamie shares a vivid dream she had which symbolized her readiness to heal from her trauma and her journey toward connecting with her own power and wisdom. We also discuss the power of women's womb cycles and how Jamie works with them in her healing process.   Listen in as Jamie shares her own experience of how our pain and traumas can be transformed into our power, opening the door to great transformation. Filled with deep wisdom, Jamie encourages us to be infinitely blessed as we bless others on our own paths.   This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking to heal from trauma and connect with their own creative power.   Jamie's bio Jamie is a lifelong poet, writer, and healer devoted to tending the creative fire. She holds her Master's in Art Therapy Counseling and has experience working as an Art Therapist in a clinical setting, community mental health, with elders, early childhood development as well as groups of children, teens, and adults who have experienced trauma. She trained for two years as Womb Medicine Woman and has been cycling through spirals of deep transformation ever since. She has worked extensively with dreams and depth psychology over the past two decades with a mentor, and through these continues to learn to listen to the language of the soul. Her work as a Wellness and Creativity coach now focuses on fostering a deeper relationship with the womb center and through this aligning with our Creative Life Force or Shakti presence.   The womb is the seat of women's wisdom, power, and creativity. She believes that building a foundation of trust and safety within the body is the foundation for this work. She loves to help women connect with this source of vitality in themselves and activate their true creative and life potential. Creativity has been the golden thread of healing that has helped her heal, grow meaning, experience deep catharsis, and connect the life force within. 'Whenever I open to create I feel something greater moving through me, that to me is prayer.'   As a mother of two young children, she has to work to practice showing up to her relationship with creating, but it never fails to nourish. She shares that learning to move energy through dance, writing, poetry, voice, and media are not just powerful tools for clearing but potent ways to weave meaning and connect with the life force within. This is her devotion. Expression is her medicine. Jamie now offers 1:1 Wellness and Creativity Coaching, Womb-based mentorship for youth 10 and up, and local menarche right-of-passage groups for youth 10-14.

Do you invite "Joy" into your life daily? Last week we featured a guided meditation that was inspired by a book called Creating Money but before I read that book there was another book by Sanaya Roman and her spirit guide Orin that came into my life first and was very shifting for me. It was the first one I found within this series and it was during the time I was working on my Creativity Coaching certification that it found me.  The book is called Living With Joy and the title alone was interesting to me because it doesn't say “finding joy” or something similar, it's about “living with joy”. It was my very first introduction to beginning to understand that I get to live from a place of authentic purpose and that I have the answers to this equation called "happiness".  Listen as I read a little to you today from the chapter “You Can Live Joyfully” in the style of a guided relaxation.  Join me here: Unleash Academy & Community  To Unleash your power!

My guest today is a nationally recognized artist, accomplished educator, and driven creative coach named Carrie Seid. Carrie has produced and taught art most of her life and, while she's still a creator, she also dedicates time to helping others create. Through her Creative Catalyst Training, a holistic program of workshops and face-to-face sessions, Carrie helps creative individuals to re-calibrate their mindset about their potential, while giving them complete permission to be themselves. Carrie acknowledges that making art demands her best, so that's what she gives. She loves to push what's possible and help others raise the bar, and whether she knows it or not, in my short time with Carrie, she did this very thing for me. I truly enjoyed our conversation, I found it inspiring, and I hope you do as well. In our conversation, we discussed… Art as the study of the self, having curiosity, not having curiosity, the x-factor, creativity as a living entity that needs to be nurtured, the collective unconscious, the shadow, information that we are simply channeling, watching scenes versus writing them out, what the body knows but consciousness doesn't, being aware of what's being produced, the collective unconscious hides the shadow of our society, art and comedy as a presentation of the collective unconscious, courage as a big part of honoring your creative urges, being most connected with others when we're most connected with ourselves, connection through vulnerability, the presence of God in a movie theater, 99% of the country is conservative, people and countries always decline, what it means to be who you are, feeling so different with time, everything is energy and that's all there is to it, you don't have to love you are being loved, behaving based on others ideas and trying to match it, the God of America, Ex-Mormons and the Religious Shelf, and that when you're an artist you are Mother Nature.

Are you living a humdrum life? Whether you realize it or not, you might be paralyzed into a state of complete inaction – by your own mind.  In this episode, I'll teach you a quick brain shifter that will snap you out of your usual routine and help you identify and overcome the fear that is holding you in place. (This is happening in more ways than you might currently see.)What I teach in this episode sounds so silly and simple, and that's exactly why it can be difficult to convince ourselves to do it. However, I'd like to ask your cynic to step aside today and give this a try.Because one of the best ways to tap into our creative goodness is to shift your brain out of the humdrum state it's in and activate some new neural pathways. And the best way for you to build courage, increase your opportunities for connection and collaboration, and even to be a better leader or entrepreneur is to allow yourself to share imperfect things. This activity will do both of these things in a super safe, easy, and powerful way.Here are the instructions:Think of something a Kindergartener could drawDraw that thing, using your non-dominant handTake a photo of it and share it on social mediaCheck out the episode artwork to see my results from teaching this exercise in a recent class.------Ready to take your personal creative commute to the next level?It's never too late to change lanes, and always a good time to listen to your inner driver.If you're feeling an itch to make a big career change, or need a hand exploring what's next for you, Jen can help.

Whether you realize it or not, you might be paralyzed into a state of complete inaction – by your own mind.  In this episode, I'll teach you a quick brain shifter that will snap you out of your usual routine and help you identify and overcome the fear that is holding you in place. (This is happening in more ways than you might currently see.)What I teach in this episode sounds so silly and simple, and that's exactly why it can be difficult to convince ourselves to do it. However, I'd like to ask your cynic to step aside today and give this a try.Because one of the best ways to tap into our creative goodness is to shift your brain out of the humdrum state it's in and activate some new neural pathways. And the best way for you to build courage, increase your opportunities for connection and collaboration, and even to be a better leader or entrepreneur is to allow yourself to share imperfect things. This activity will do both of these things in a super safe, easy, and powerful way.Here are the instructions:Think of something a Kindergartener could drawDraw that thing, using your non-dominant handTake a photo of it and share it on social mediaCheck out the episode artwork to see my results from teaching this exercise in a recent class.------Ready to take your personal creative commute to the next level?It's never too late to change lanes, and always a good time to listen to your inner driver.If you're feeling an itch to make a big career change, or need a hand exploring what's next for you, Jen can help.

It's time to talk about what happens after the show. Listen as I tell you about the time I danced on stage with Jane's Addiction and Joe Perry at Lollapalooza and the post-performance depression that followed. Perry Knoppert is a mad multipotentialite misfit. He says "Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes ... the ones who see things differently…" So obviously, I had to invite him on the show.

A little improv… What is creativity?  Go.  (frozen pause) Ummm. It's green? Yes, and…It crawls. Yes, and… it morphs like a caterpillar into a butterfly. Yes, and… it can be venomous, like a snake. On this week's podcast, guest Nina Hart challenges our notions about what is art and who gets to do it. She tells us about her journey to heal what she calls her “heartbroken artist.” Nina shares how she finally freed herself from criticism, judgment and creative blocks that silenced and shamed her. She offers all of us a portal into our own spontaneous impulses, our sparks of creativity.  Nina teaches us what she calls “writing from the top of your head.” She introduces us to a writing prompt she calls “small and crappy,” a medicine for the perfectionism that inhibits us.  She also challenges each of you to participate in a small and crappy writing exercise. Give it a try and send us your results. We will make art of it. Everything, including aging, is art, according to Nina Hart. And there's a plot twist we could all use.

Hello and welcome to episode 75 of Multipassionate Artists. I am so excited about the upcoming episodes I have in the works for you. Along with interviews with a variety of multi-passionate artists, I'm also going to try out a new format with real-life coaching sessions. An artist just like you will volunteer to be in the hot seat and you will be able to listen as I coach them to a solution. Topics will include how to choose what to focus on when you have so many interests, how to set achievable goals, how to break through creative blocks and limiting beliefs, and how to show up authentically in every aspect of your life. Of course, pr and marketing strategies will come up, however, I believe that you can't be successful without first building a solid foundation with authentic personal branding.Shoot me an email at podcast@dianefoy.com if you are interested in volunteering. I want to shout out a new review for the podcast and the first for Multipassionate Artists.RinaAM says Love this podcast and I'm excited about the new name and focus. I've heard “you do too much” more often than I can count. Thanks to Diane for not only encouraging us to embrace all parts of ourselves, but to LOVE this part of ourselves. I can't wait to learn more.Thank you Rina. Artistic Director, Dancer, Choreographer, Educator & Fight Director Colleen SnellToday my guest is Colleen Snell, the Artistic Director and Co-Founder of Frog in Hand.

Why are you not acting on your creative ideas ? As creatives, why do we delay creating, why are we not happy with how little we do?  How creativity and our story about it affects our self esteem. What happens when we make a decision to follow our ideas and inspiration.  And the undercurrent of personal growth that happens as we work on our art.  You may remember a time when you were so busy with work or family obligations. You were dreaming about a time when you'd finally focus on writing, making art, studying. And maybe the time has already arrived for you, you are in a comfortable place in life when you don't need to chase anything, you could focus on yourself now, but you got caught up in other people's ideas of what to do with your time. Your schedule is full but it doesn't fulfill you. There is still a craving you don't tell anyone about but it comes up  Do you remember the moment when your schedule got freed up. Think about the intensity of that emotion. You were excited about the time you have. Still, maybe you were not so intentional in creating a new plan that would include making art.  It happens When we are swamped and suddenly we have more time, we don't know what to do with it, we start looking for things to do.  Where will the fulfillment come from?  It will not come from the pleasures of consuming.  If you are looking for a deep experience you need to go within and start creating something.  There are only so many book you can read, then comes a moment when you need to write something, if writing was your dream. There are only so many paintings you can see, at some point you need to start painting, if painting was your dream.  An archetype is written into your soul, you cannot not express it.  Even if you think of the pleasure of witnessing nature  One of the deepest experiences is contact with nature, and specifically being alone in nature. No matter how healing, balancing and necessary it is for us, there comes a moment when the wave of wonder slows down and we just want to do something. By nature we are co creators.  We need the balance of giving and receiving, doing and being.  If you don't follow the creative voice for a longer time, and your ideas come to mind, you may feel a range of emotions, from a subtle sense of resignation to panic. Because time passes by. So what exactly are you waiting for? More time? More assurance? More skills? Guidance, permission? Who decides that you are ready?  For many people it is often about the time. We feel guilty about spending time in solitude, which is need to go to the magic land for the ideas to unfold, so we participate in social and we don't set boundaries we don't create new rules, new schedules, nobody is preventing us from it, only we are, but the longer you wait the more you will resent people that actually are not stopping you from it, you don't know exactly how to express the need. To not offend anyone, as if that is a given.  Something else is also waiting underneath the call from your creative self.  And that inner need to grow and evolve.  WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU COMMIT  If you start imagining what to create , the vision may be exciting , and once you commit you will notice . Expect an emotional rollercoaster before you settle into the new rituals.  That means tomorrow morning you need to get up and do something towards it and make a step forward. Often we dream of the big picture, big dreams realized but it does not happen without the daily work in the small picture.  It is not obvious that you will follow the creative voice.  You may regret not using your talents and at the same time not be willing to do the daily work.  Tell a story you really want to tell yourself. Example: blaming others for lack of time vs being clear that you are choosing not to create time, you are choosing to spend it this way.  Do you feel the difference? One pictures you as a victim, The other gives no clarity. and invites you to take responsibility.  You can absolutely work on feeling satisfied w/o doing anything beyond what you do now. You can just exist. This can be your work.  But my guess it you will be uncomfortable because the voice is calling you to create something Here is the thing though the work is waiting for you no matter what you choose. you can choose making art... discomfort of creating and facing the hard parts. you can choose not to create and face the discomfort of regrets, and then you will do the mental work on overcoming the regrets.  the difference  The discomfort that you will feel on the creative path will be serving your evolution. in contrast to the discomfort of giving up On your potential .  We tend to look at our life in this short period of time and have an opinion about it. If that opinion is negative, if you think........ lift above the timeline of your life and look further into the past and acknowledge you were incredibly creative before, and think about the future; how much time you still have to make something meaningful. How are you defining yourself? Can you give yourself credit for what you have done already?  The art is a tool of personal growth. So when you are called to do some art the art will have uncomfortable moments, because your art is a tool for your personal growth. You are not only working on the paragraph, you are not only working on the section of the canvas, you are facing your doubts, will they like it, and you get lost and you find yourself.  You are working on the art, and the art is working on you, asking more of you. And when you put more into it -  this is how you get more out of life. What are the next logical steps to take?  We tend to seek comfort, but once we are comfortable how do we make sure we feel alive?

Not sustainable from an environmental perspective (that’s awesome as well, but a different conversation =)), but sustainable in a way that allows me to show up for all of these things consistently and with a sense of joy. I’ve found that communicating with our creative endeavors is a beautiful way to gain insights into what our creative projects really need from us. Which in turn allows us to create from a place of greater harmony, ease and flow. In today’s episode I’ll be sharing what this “communication” process looks like for me so you can apply it to your own creative projects as well! Today’s episode is also the Season 2 Finale! I’ll be sharing my future plans for the podcast (don’t worry, it’ll be coming back =)) and also how we can stay in touch until Season 3. A big thank you from my heart to yours for being on this journey with me.

It’s all about learning how we can connect with our bodies so that we can be present in the here and now and also create a feeling of safety within. When we feel safe in our bodies, we also feel safe to express ourselves creatively. Which is one of the topics that we dive into in today’s conversation.Some of the other things that we talk about are: How to access your deeper gifts Ashley’s program, The Vital Body MethodLetting the kid within winThe power of DANCEAshley’s number one tool for moving beyond creative blocks  And so much more.Let’s dive in, and enjoy the show!! If you loved this episode you might also love:Cyclical Creativity with Fabia Bachmann, Cyclical Living & Menstruality Expert and Yoga Teacher FIND ASHLEYIG: @ashley.depaulisFB: Ashley DePaulisLinkedIn: Ashley DePaulis, MPHTemp.

That’s what it did for me. Fabia is a Cyclical Living and Menstruality Expert, Yoga Teacher, Economist and is currently also studying Psychology and Religious Studies at the University of Zürich. A big piece of Fabia’s work is about seeing the menstrual cycle as the gift that it truly is. In today’s conversation we dive deep into what that means and so much more.Some of the things that we talk about are: How we can integrate cycle awareness into what can feel like a very masculine world Practicing menstrual awareness at the workplaceWhat the “four seasons” of the menstrual cycle are and how you can apply this awareness to your daily life How we can apply this wisdom to our creative process & projects What a “feminine” yoga practice looks like Fabia is an absolute joy to listen to and shares about this topic with so much wisdom and humor. One of the things that I love about Fabia’s work is that she makes cycle awareness feel so accessible. I walked away from this conversation feeling like I could easily start applying some of the concepts into my daily life.

Today’s episode is with another really special human being and creator, Savanna Jones-Martin. Savanna and I met two years ago in New York at an immersive experience that we both participated in. When I first met Savanna, I felt an immediate resonance with her. She’s a beautiful human being who is deeply embodied in her truth and her creativity. She’s a vocalist and in the last year she’s been very active with producing her own beautiful music and sharing it with the world. In 2020 she released an album called “Breath of Earth” and this year, in 2021, she released a gorgeous single called “Simplicity.” Currently, she’s in the process of producing and recording a new collection of songs that she’s written. Savanna is also an Embodiment Coach who uses Somatic Experiencing processes informed by the work of Peter Levine and she also teaches voice through a somatically-oriented therapeutic lens. She also facilitates dance and movement events and works as a ceremonial artist where she offers songs, prayers and space holding in meditative, healing and ceremonial settings. I see Savanna as someone who very much lives in her creative truth, which is one of the reasons I felt called to having her on the show. In today’s conversation she shares so many wisdoms and insights into the creative process. She is a true joy and inspiration to listen to! FIND SAVANNAWebsite: www.savannajonesmartin.comInstagram: @savannajonesmartinFIND MEwww.leahsalinas.comInstagram: @leah_salinasTHINGS WE MENTIONED IN THE EPISODEBreath of EarthSimplicity Savanna’s Embodiment Coaching work Savanna’s voice lessonsSomatic ExperiencingThe War of Art by Steven PressfieldThe Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron—This podcast has been edited and co-produced by René G.
