A podcast about finding & embracing true creativity through the magic of listening to your own heart. Throughout my lifetime as an artist, I have heard thousands of people quietly whisper things like, "I wish I could be creative, but I am just no good at that stuff". The truth is that creativity is available to everyone. This is a podcast about finding wild, true & authentic creativity through the magic of listening to your heart. It is intended to inspire and ignite the collective realization that every single person has the right and maybe even the responsibility to access the amazing current of creativity that runs through each and every one of us. I speak with some of the most brilliant, creative minds & hearts of our time, digging into what inspires them, finding out how they deal with creative blocks and how they have gotten out of their own way to allow creativity to move through them, and are now experiencing creative success beyond their wildest imaginations. I invite you to join me on this journey. Together, we'll discover that not only is creativity available to every single one of us, but that when we let it lead the way, we finally find our way. This just might be the invitation of your life!
