400 - How to Find a Creative Battle Cry that Will Ground and Guide Your Next Season
THIS IS A VERY SPECIAL EPISODE!
It’s still early in the year, so, many of of us are still wrestling with goals or even still struggling with goal setting, but sometimes the most clarifying and energizing thing you can do is to determine what you are NOT going to do.
This is your anti-goal. This is your “Creative Battle Cry” - it’s the thing you’re going to war with that’s been perpetually throwing you off your creative horse so to speak.
In this episode I chat with someone who has endlessly inspired me over the years, and that is textile artist Sophie Miller AKA my wife!
This was an emotional and powerful chat for me! Hope you love it! -
399 - How to Unearth the Hidden Depth Already Present in Your Creative Work
If you’ve ever felt like your work wasn’t deep enough or that when you tried to make it deeper that it actually just got worse overall - this episode is for you. In this episode we explore how to find the hidden layers of depth ALREADY PRESENT in the work you’re doing and in yourself.
Tune in for a creative prompt on how to diversify your influences and strengthen the substance in your practice as well! -
398 - How Your Inner Critic Can Surprisingly Help You Overcome Creative Block
Does your creative work seem to get worse the better you try to make it? Is the only option to just quit trying?
In this episode we explore how to approach improving your creative work in such a way that it actually works and maybe even makes the process more enjoyable as well! -
397 - How to Find Your Creative Sensibility and Unlock Your Creative Magic
Do you ever feel like your only option for making peace with your creative practice is just accepting that maybe you just don’t have it?
It’s ironic that for many of us - the magic of our creative heroes is what attracts us to the creative journey, but then years into the process, we’ve yet to capture anything like that in our own work, and that same magical creative work that made us say yes to the journey is what is making us feel like phonies and causing us to want to abandon our practice.
In todays episode we’re going to explore how to unlock that creative magic in your work by finding and utilizing the power of your creative sensibility. -
396 - The 5 Flavors of Creativity & How Knowing Yours Can Reignite Your Spark
Do you ever feel like you have to force yourself to make something? It’s such a shame because, for most of us, the reason we wanted a creative practice in the first place was because we were so desperate to spend as much time making things as possible!
This episode is for you if you:
1 Have become apathetic about making things
2 Feel lost about what path to take next creatively
3 Need a tool for uncovering your creative sensibility
This is Part 1 of our 3 Part Series on Finding Your Creative Sensibility by Finding Your Taste

Long time listener who should have left a 5* rating a long time ago
Thanks Andy and team for this podcast, it has been a companion for the last 2.5 yrs and I would not be where I am at in my creative and artistic journey without it and your skillshare classes. Many thanks !
Very helpful !
Settle in for some extended philosophical musings on life and the creative path. Not what you expect -- it really goes deep into its subject matter.
Always have tissues and a notebook handy when you listen to this podcast -- you might à a creative breakthrough or you might just finally realise what's been holding you back and have a cathartic breakdown.
Both options will change your life for the better.
Thank you Andy 🙏🏼
So inspiring!
I am at the beginning of my professional Illustrator career and this podcast is helping me so much! Thank you so much for the inspiration and motivation.
