    Tired of chasing art sales?

    TIRED OF CHASING ART SALES? I've been having the same conversation a lot recently. Artists who are exhausted. Creatives who have built something real and are now running on empty trying to keep up with a world that keeps changing. In today's episode I'm talking about what to do when selling your art stops feeling worth it, why this happens, and the question I asked myself last year that changed how I was looking at everything. If you've been feeling the fatigue of chasing sales lately, this one is for you.

    How To Feel Confident In Your Work When Things Feel Off

    HOW TO FEEL CONFIDENT IN YOUR WORK WHEN THINGS FEEL OFF The one question that completely changed how I think about confidence in my creative work. In today's episode I'm talking about the fear that shows up the moment you step outside your usual circle, why it never fully goes away no matter how long you've been doing this, and the things that have genuinely helped me push through it. Including a personal story about a sketchbook full of leaf drawings I almost never shared.

    Should You Quit Your Art? Project? Social Media?

    Should you quit your art? Your project? Your social media? In today's episode I'm digging into one of the most common questions I hear, and one I ask myself more than you might think. I share how I know when something genuinely needs to be let go, when I just need to do things differently, and when the real reason I want to quit is simply that I'm scared. Have you been asking yourself whether to walk away from something lately? Maybe you are tired of selling? Social media? Life feeling so full? If so, then this episode is for you.

    How To Move Closer To What You Want Faster

    HOW TO MOVE CLOSER TO WHAT YOU WANT FASTER Recently I told my friend Sharon I wished I was in flow more. And what she said back to me was so simple and so obvious that I couldn't believe I hadn't seen it myself. In today's episode I'm talking about flow, abundance and what actually happens when we focus on the lack of something rather than where it already exists in our lives right now. Is there something you've been waiting to arrive at before you feel okay? This one might help.

    What Platform Should You Put Your Art On?

    What platform should you put your art on right now? The truth is, we're living in a world that is noisier and more crowded online than it's ever been. And so the question of where to actually put yourself and your art has never felt more important or more confusing. In today's episode I'm walking through exactly how I approach choosing a platform, the question I always ask before anything else, why sharing your work is no longer enough on its own, and the advice I'd give myself if I was starting from scratch today. If you're just getting started or you've been at this a while, this one is worth a listen! LEAVE A COMMENT HERE: https://www.instagram.com/p/DbVib71Ajo8/

    From Making to Teaching: Meet Two Artists Who Took the Leap

    Are you sitting on a teaching idea you haven't quite acted on yet? A year ago, Nicole was on a call with me wondering how to get her teaching off the ground. This week we got back together and I couldn't keep up with everything she had booked in. Vanessa's story is a different one - an artist who spent twenty five years teaching, burnt out completely, found her way back to her own practice, and is now creating something she actually loves. In today's episode, I chatted with Nicole and Vanessa, two artists from our community who've been on their own journey with teaching their art. They share what it actually looked like to get started, what they'd do differently, and the advice that's stuck with them. If you've been thinking about sharing your skills but aren't sure where to begin, this one will give you the push you need.   SIGN UP FOR TEACH YOUR ART TODAY Go from Idea to Income with our Teach Your Art bundle.

    How To Move Forwards When You Don't Know What You Want

    What do you do when you genuinely don't know what you want anymore? That's the question I've been sitting with for the last year. In today's episode, I walk through the exact process I used to move through that uncertainty, including why I had to focus on joy before I could find any clarity at all. I share what it looked like to hit a wall after ten years of running things the same way, the daily practice that helped shift my energy when everything felt heavy, and how saying things out loud before they made any sense led me to opportunities I never expected. This isn't a five step formula. It's an honest look at what it actually takes to move through limbo, and come out the other side with a clearer sense of where you're going.   LET'S HAVE A CHAT If you're in that confused, in between place right now, I'd love to know: what step are you stuck on? What do you do? Drop it in the comments or in our post below, I read every one. >> DROP A COMMENT ON OUR POST HERE

    You Don't Need To Be An Expert To Help People. Here's Why.

    YOU DON'T NEED TO BE AN EXPERT TO HELP PEOPLE. HERE'S WHY. I've recorded close to three thousand talks over the last ten years.  And I still don't think of myself as a teacher. In today's episode, I'm talking about why, and how shifting from "teaching" to "creating experiences" has completely changed the way I build everything, from courses to community to the new project I'm starting this year. Join me on 13th July for a free masterclass where I break down the steps: from idea to income when it comes to teaching art and building experiences. You don't need any experience.
