Episode 47: Inspiration 52:56

4 years ago52:56

52:56

Inspiration can feel mystical and hard to understand, and we can feel like we are merely copying or imitating others. But if we look at the things that we consume — the artists and designers, the music, the movies and tv shows, and the books — we can get a firm grip on the things that really influence us. This is a great well of meaning that we can draw from for our creative work. In this episode, I discuss the is ideas of inspiration, and how answering for questions and reflecting on the patterns and connections our answers reveal can give us some great inspiration. If you’re interested in diving deeply into your creative work, I have a new workshop that I will be teaching in May 2021 that is all about looking at these influences and inspirations to push your work forward.

It’s easy to feel stuck or stagnant in our creating. It’s easy to feel like we don’t know how to move ourselves forward. In today’s episode, I share three strategies for moving yourself forward creatively. These three ideas are great for creators at any stage, and though they may seem simple, they are powerful in getting us moving and creating. Listen to my take on how working small, working fast, and working outside of your comfort zone can help spark new ideas, new works, and new directions.…

Episode 45: Intuition 44:50

The magic of creating may be just tapping into our intuition, and by tapping into our intuition, we give ourselves permission to play — to try new ideas and to explore new territory. We get into a flow that can take us in new directions. I take a look at the role of intuition in making and creating, and discuss several strategies that can help us tap into that instinctive voice.…

I continue my look at the four classical elements of earth, fire, air, and water. I’ve already gone into the earth, fire, and air elements, and today I dive into the water element and how we need to stay flexible. If we are rigid and stiff and if we know exactly what we want to make and create, we don’t leave room for possibilities, and it’s the pursuit of possibilities that can lead us in unexpected directions.…

Episode 40: Grounding - Part 1 55:13

Keeping ourselves balanced as we create can be a difficult task, but thinking of a readily accessible framework can make it easier. In Episode 38, I talked about the four classical elements of art, fire, water, and air in relation to Avatar: The Last Airbender, and suggested that these four ideas can give us a we'll rounded idea of creativity and give us a way of keeping ourselves balanced. In today’s episode, I dive into this topic a bit further, and discuss how the earth element and the notion of grounding can give us an entry way into better understanding and greater balance in our creativity. I dive into mindset and discuss not only fixed vs. growth mindset, but also scarcity vs. abundance mindset. These are just some burgeoning thoughts that I have around this concept, and I’m working through them, and I hope they make sense. I’ll be diving more into these notions in future episodes. I hope that you enjoy!…

We’re all heroes of our own story. Recently, the Hero’s Journey has been popping up in my life. I’ve heard it mentioned on a couple favorite podcasts, and I’ve been contemplating it a lot in my art, my writings, and my musings. How can understanding the Hero’s Journey help us on our creative journey? I examine the convergence of ideas that brought Joseph Campbell’s monomyth to the forefront of my creative endeavors and how I can understand my own creative journey through the story structure that is the Hero’s Journey.…

I still have balance on my mind, but I take a look at it from a couple different points of view. As a fan of Star Wars and Avatar: The Last Airbender, I look at a framework for creativity and finding balance through the lens of The Force and the bending of elements. Like a spinning top, we can keep our creativity balanced, but not just by keeping it spinning, but by keeping our creative weight equally distributed. On today’s episode, I share some ideas about Star Wars, The Last Airbender, and how we can approach our creativity in a wholistic way. I hope that you enjoy!…

Episode 37: Balance 35:03

When the pandemic hit back in March, it was like hitting a big pause button. As everything was cancelled or postponed, I hunkered down in my house, making art, creating videos, livestreaming, and working on podcasts. It was a great time to reconnect with all of these things, but then I pivoted to teaching online classes, and the world slowly began to reopen. I even got to do some in-person teaching in the form of kids summer art camps at the art center that I managed. And unfortunately, so much fell to the wayside as camps swung into high gear, and I continued to teach online. I had little time, and my life became completely unbalanced. On today’s episode, I discuss this feeling of being out of balance, and share a few ways that may help you to regain some of your balance if you’re feeling the same way.…

Episode 35: Walk Through the Fire 35:19

35:19

We are walking through the fire now, and recent events have me pondering what’s important. Even though the pandemic, protests, marches, and political turmoil have stirred up a lot of overwhelming emotions and ideas, creating and making allow us to process our emotions, our reactions, and our thoughts. Turning the energy of the turmoil into creative energy allows us to focus on what is most important as the fire burns away what is not. We can either allow the fire to consume us or we can allow it to make us stronger as we realize what is truly important.…

In the simplest of terms, creating is a spiritual act. Creating is a way that we make sense of the world and discover understanding and meaning. Author Brené Brown says, “As long as we’re creating, we’re cultivating meaning.” I share some ideas on how art and creating can help us discover meaning and purpose in our lives, and I share a bit about my own spiritual journey.…
