I have been a listener of Creative Living with Jamie for years now, and beyond listening to the freshly airing episode every Tuesday, I have listened to every single past episode of the show posted on iTunes and in the archives of jamieridlerstudios.ca.
Every. Single. One.
No exaggeration.
Most more than twice.
That in itself speaks of how highly I rate this podcast.
The podcast has been a lifeline for me at a time when I have been going through a remodeling of my life, putting my creativity front and center where it deserves to be.
In each and every episode I have found golden nuggets of inspiration, connection to kindred spirits and priceless encouragement from Jamie and her guest that has helped me to keep on keeping on with my creative work and the building of my creative life.
Through each week's heartfelt conversations I am reminded that I am not alone, that my work has value in the world and that creativity is a precious gift to be cherished.
As a host and interviewer, Jamie is truly, uniquely talented.
She both listens and speaks with love that can be felt through the airwaves, and asks just the right questions, always taking the conversation beyond just the surface level.
(An added bonus and something I as a musician truly appreciate, is that Jamie’s voice is SO beautiful and pleasant to listen to.)
This podcast is a true gem.
It is a weekly piece of inspiration that supports and nurtures my creative heart, mind, body and soul, expands my creative vistas and connects me to a powerful creative community that I might have never found otherwise.
