Wildly Creative Life with Brooke Schultz Brooke Schultz

If you are a multi passionate creator this episode is especially gonna be for you, because it’s an exercise in self trust, in doing it messy, in practical tips of how to get back in your alignment and make what you’re meant to make.
We’re really meant to be in fullest expression of our authentic selves. The rosebushes in my neighborhood are blooming so huge and so glorious, i have to walk by them and smell them every day. And no one is looking at those roses and saying how dare you grow, how dare you bloom so beautifully and so abundantly. All of nature conspires to make the rose bushes bloom that abundantly. The water, the sunlight, even the cold of winter–they are play their part in helping the roses bloom because that's what roses are meant to do. You are meant to be the fullest expression of yourself creatively.
And my guess is that you might be playing small, at some point, in some way, because our human noise sometimes gets in the way, so today’s episode is for cutting through that noise and getting back to your business which is blooming ever more brightly, with all your fragrance, color, and full height.

Distinguishing your GREAT images from your good images is a skill that can make or break your photography career.
Potential clients make snap judgments about whether to hire you based on just a few images they see. (that pressure is enough to drive anyone nuts).
But you can learn to spot your best work with confidence to share on social media, your blog/website, and with publications so you can get noticed + work with clients who want the exact art you want to create. 
In this section of the class you’ll hear ab why curation matters + how to make it easy, how to decide what to deliver to clients vs. what to trash and how to make peace with that, how to balance consistency with creativity in sharing images on your feed, website and portfolio, and of course a whole lot more, so please message me @heartfulmagazine the word CURATE and i’ll send you this class in its entirety right away.

We’re all products of our environment, experiences, demographics and exposures. We often exist in echo chambers online and in person with others who are similar to us and agree with us, even our algorithms feed us content we’ll likely agree with. How we perceive the world directly affects what kind of art we make. So how do we bust out of our boxes, stop unconsciously copying our heroes and peers and blaze new trails? In this episode we talk through a framework that can be applied to the smallest creative process and the huge creative process of making a creative life.
