Mark takes in the great outdoors with artist and musician Aldous Collins, diving into the role of gratitude, vulnerability, and authenticity in his work. Aldous reflects on his early musical influences, the evolution of his performance style, and how live interaction with audiences shapes his approach to art. The conversation touches on the intersection of music and visual expression, the power of community, and the inspiration found in nature. We also discuss the future of creativity in the age of AI, and why human connection remains at the heart of meaningful artistic expression. Check out Aldous' work on his website! Takeaways Creativity often stems from personal experiences and emotions. Gratitude plays a crucial role in the creative process. Vulnerability in art allows for deeper connections with audiences. Live performances create a unique bond between artist and listener. Art and music can serve as therapeutic outlets for expression. Embracing fear and uncertainty is essential for growth. Nature can inspire creativity and provide a sense of peace. Authenticity in art resonates more with audiences than perfection. The evolution of an artist's style is a natural part of their journey.

Have you ever stopped to consider that you're painting a masterpiece each day? The colors you choose, the strokes you make, and the perspective you bring all contribute to your unique canvas of existence.Dr. BethAnne Kapansky Wright invites us on a transformative journey into the artist's mindset, where we discover how approaching life as a creative endeavor opens doors to greater authenticity, joy, and meaning. Drawing from the Akashic Records' current theme of "Soul Safari," she explores the delicate dance between receiving life's unfolding map and actively charting our own course. This beautiful tension between surrender and initiative represents the yin and yang energies we all navigate as we craft our experiences.Through a moving reading from "Small Pearls Big Wisdom," we learn that "every day we create something new"—whether it's kindness, gratitude, joy, presence, or even grief. The power lies not in judging these creations but in bringing mindfulness to the process and appreciating the sum of our art. When we embrace this perspective, we move away from rigid expectations and into a more gracious, playful relationship with life itself. Perhaps most importantly, the artist's mindset helps us reframe challenges not as failures but as valuable experiences that add depth and dimension to our story. Rather than harsh self-judgment, we can ask, "What can I learn from this? How is this adding value?" This simple shift transforms our relationship with adversity and opens pathways to greater wisdom and compassion.Ready to declare yourself the artist of your life? Join us for this heart-opening exploration and discover how you might approach tomorrow with fresh eyes, asking the powerful question: "I wonder what I shall create today?"

This episode is a little different, because I'm the one being interviewed.Clara (my long-time fitness client and now performance and business coaching client) and her husband Iggy invited me onto their podcast, and we got into the parts of my story I don't usually talk about publicly.From arriving in the U.S. as an au pair with no plan and no connections… to building a coaching business that supports women all over the world- this conversation is about what it actually takes to create freedom, especially when nobody around you understands what you're doing.We talked about:– How I made decisions no one around me agreed with– How I structure my days to protect my energy and sanity– Why clarity comes from taking action- not from having a 5-year plan– The one question I ask myself every week to stay focusedIf you're in a season of transition… or you're building something your family doesn't get… this episode will give you real perspective (and a push).

“I want women to feel seen, supported, and connected—this chapter of life isn't the end, it's the beginning of something new.” — Lauren Tetenbaum Lauren Tetenbaum is an author, therapist, and advocate who helps millennial and younger women navigate the big transitions of life—from perinatal shifts to perimenopause and beyond. In this warm and insightful conversation, Lauren joins Uncorking a Story to talk about her new book, Millennial Menopause: Preparing for Perimenopause, Menopause, and Life's Next Period. We explore why menopause is misunderstood, how storytelling and community can be powerful tools for healing, and why empathy should guide not just writing, but life. Whether you're approaching midlife yourself or supporting someone who is, this is a must-listen. Key Takeaways: Menopause Misconceptions: Most people think of menopause as “the end,” when in reality it's a transition and an opportunity for growth and empowerment. Perimenopause Education Gap: Many women (and providers) lack awareness of perimenopause symptoms and the mental health impacts that come with hormonal changes. Empathy in Writing & Therapy: Empathy is key to telling stories that resonate and supporting clients through life's emotional roller coasters. Community Matters: Sharing experiences—whether through group chats, friend circles, or therapy—creates connection and reduces loneliness during transitional periods. COVID Reflections: The pandemic catalyzed career pivots, deepened community bonds, and gave Lauren space to pursue writing her first book. Reframing the Narrative: Rather than resisting or fearing menopause, women can embrace it as a new chapter filled with empowerment and self-discovery. Storytelling as Healing: Whether through journaling or creative writing, storytelling can be a powerful way to process grief, anxiety, and life transitions.
