  1. How To Keep A Balanced and Creative Life

    How To Keep A Balanced and Creative Life

    This episode is my most stream-of-consciousness yet! I've been juggling a lot of balls lately between my personal life, professional life, semi-professional creative life and creative lifestyle... It's a lot of hats and a lot of balls, and I've never been good at circus skills. After talking with a bunch of creative people in my life, I realised it's a common theme - trying to manage all the elements of our lives that make us us. With so many plates to spin, it's fair enough that we can smash a few or, at least, get a sore arm. This episode is about all of that. I wanted to break down all the components of life but focused on what that means as an artist. It's an honest episode because it's something that I have struggled with at times, and these are the things I've learned and tested to try and make it... easier. Some of it will be obvious, but we all take the obvious for granted sometimes, so consider it a reminder. This episode is the biggest philosophy-vibed one yet. Much of it came from me figuring it out in my morning journal pages after sending myself mad with being overwhelmed and committing to too many things (typical).   Enjoy it, and consider it a big hug from me. Happy 2024, kids!

    How NOT to go mad when you're a Solo Artist

    A solo episode where I get real honest about my experience of putting on my first solo show and how wild it is that it seems that all creatives feel the same thing through every phase of a new work that has intention of going to the public.  I learnt a lot about my creative self through this process, and the things that I need to make BETTER work.  This episode explores the similarities between different artistic disciplines and how you can be the best solo artist when you allow yourself two very important things.  An epic drafting processA teammate (aka carer) while you're in eye of the storm of your artThanks for listening!  Go follow me, your host Hannah Sainty on Instagram, Facebook and Patreon And follow the pod on Instagram Let me know your creative ideas, resistances and remedies!  Hannah :D

    CBF'd to Motivated AF - Motivation with Anne Bonney

    Motivation is a powerful tool to get closer to your dreams -- next to fear and coffee... sometimes I mistake coffee for motivation ha!  But when life is throwing you lemons, you're tired and run down or you're just feeling yuck, when anyone says "you've just got to get motivated," it's annoying enough to make you want to throw a lemon at their kneecap.  It's hard to get motivated to do things you don't want to do, but sometimes it's hard to get motivated to do the things you DO want to do - why? And how to we get over it and get on with it?  Funny you ask, because the guest on todays episode has two books and one is named just that, Get Over it .  Today's guest is a motivational speaker who I met when volunteering with elephants in Thailand #cultured and she is an absolute legend. In this chat we cover change - internally and externally, motivation and what the resistance is to get over it and we talk about tools to see that resistance, throw a lemon at it and get on with the show.  She's an awesome chick and I highly recommend you go follow her on all the things (including listening to her podcast which I have a cheeky guest appearance on) - see below;  Instagram: Speaker Anne Bonney  Facebook: Speaker Anne Bonney  Website: https://ignitingyourcourage.com/ Podcast: Dancing in the Discomfort  As always, if you want to support this show and the efforts of your host, go follow all the related accounts, sign up for Patreon if you have ability to and keep the chat going! I love hearing from you and am always welcoming ideas and topics you'd like investigated.  Stay WEird my munchkins x Hannah's Instagram: @hannah_sainty You're Weird Instagram: @youreweird_podcast Facebook: Hannah Sainty Comedy  Patreon: Hannah Sainty Coffee: Hannah Sainty
