Hello! It’s another interview episode of the Create Shift podcast. This time with a coach I’ve been working with since 2020, the wonderful Ray Dodd. In this episode we talk all things money making and creativity.

Topics covered: * Ray’s approach to money goals, why you need to go for more than enough * The most common money challenges Ray sees amongst her clients who are artists/creatives * The need to realise you’re a business owner as an artist/creative * Being your real self in your art & your money making * Not judging your own path * Developing your own relationship with money * Artists need coaching more than anybody (and if you want it with me, here’s the info) * How society has shaped our relationship to money & to creativity Links & resources mentioned * Listen to Ray’s podcast Real You,Real Money * Find Ray on Instagram @ray_dodd * My Alchemy single session coaching package is currently on sale (but only until Fri 16th August) at £175, usual price £385.

Procrastination and creative work

Welcome to another episode of Create Shift. In today’s solo episode I’m diving into the topic of procrastination. Is it a helpful part of the creative processes, a block to be battled through and overcome or perhaps neither of those? If you feel like procrastination is something you’ve come up against many times, this episode will offer you a fresh perspective on it and some tools for how to move through it. Links, references, resources * My Alchemy single session coaching package is now on Summer sale! More than 50% off. All the info is here on this PDF (because I’m too excited to share this to wait for it to be on my website looking fancy). This really is an incredible offer and there are just 10 spots available. * This episode references theories on self-doubt and self-belief developed by master coach Sas Petherick, informed by her own research. I’m diving deep into this learning on Sas’ Self Belief Coaching Academy certification training. That’s all for today. Until next time! Stay curious, stay inspired and stay connected.

Following your own creative path with Kimberly Kuniko

It’s time for another episode of the Create Shift podcast! I hope you enjoy listening to this conversation with my guest Kimberly Kuniko (aka Lacelit). This is a beautiful conversation filled with magic all about creativity, the ‘rules’ around it and our mutual desire to abandon them. If you’re in a place where you feel your artistic identity is shifting, where you’re questioning if you’re allowed to do something - if you have the ‘right’ experience - this conversation will be like a magic balm for you. Kimberly Kuniko (she/her) is a mixed-race Nikkei American illustrator, collage + mixed media artist, and poet based in what is now known as Los Angeles, California (unceded Tongva land). Her Japanese roots inform her art through a love of paper, finding the connection between things, balancing delicate detail and texture, and layering stories together. She enjoys designing for her stationery brand Lacelit, hosting guided retreats for creatives of all mediums, and facilitating the Dream & Scheme Community for Small Business Owners. Find her creations and community spaces online in these cozy spaces: home // lacelit.comsubscribe // bit.ly/lacelit shop // lacelit.com/shop create // lacelit.com/creativity-club dream & scheme // lacelit.com/ds-community retreat // lacelit.com/workshops read // kimberlykuniko.substack.com ig // @lacelit cara // @lacelit Topics discussed * Kimberly’s own winding creative journey from performing arts to visual arts * ‘Expert’ status and questioning our right to do things as self-taught artists * Challenging the arbitrary rules of who can and can’t access creativity * How following curiosity is such a big part of creativity * There is no one route to creativity * The value of not knowing the ‘rules’, not being an ‘expert’ Quotes “I find I make the most interesting things when I’m taking those restraints away” “part of the expression is the sharing of it” “there’s no wrong time to start” “when you are a creative person and you have ideas, any kind of different stumuli or ideas can give you more inspiration” “a creative life is one that is open to experimentation and play” Links * Previous Create Shift episode on the audience as part of the creative process * Coach with me - I’m currently taking on new 1:1 clients and would love to work together. Book a curiosity call here. * Trauma Sensitive Theatre & Performance Making Course - earlybird spaces available for booking until 31/07/2024. * Sign up to my newsletter here. * Come to the Rebellious Artists’ and Creatives’ Café monthly free gathering space.

A slow and intentional new year

It’s so easy to get caught in the ‘new year new you’ energy that society pushes on us. Easy to feel full of ‘shoulds’ and bad about not having started all the things yet. Here’s my alternative to all of that. A reminder that January is not nature’s new year, and it’s okay to (good, even) to take things slow. Mentions: The Almanac: A Seasonal Guide to 2024 by Lia Leendertz Rebellious Artists’ and Creatives’Café - next one happening Friday 26th January, 12pm GMT (I definitely got the date wrong in the recording). Discussion theme will be rest. Book your free space here. Yoga for Radical Wellbeing - a monthly seasonal and trauma sensitive yoga class for all bodies and abilities. Next one 9:30am - 10:30am GMT Friday 26th January. Recording available for 30 days to all booked on. Full price booking here. Accessible price booking here.

Who are we making our art for?

In this episode of Create Shift I’m talking about the ‘other’ in our creative processes. Asking, who are we making our art for? When is this ‘other’ actually useful to think of, and when isn’t it? Often I find we can get caught up in thinking about this ‘other’ and it can become detrimental to our practice. Today I’m offering a few different ways to think about this, which may be helpful to explore. Listen to the podcast here, or wherever you usually listen to podcasts (just search Create Shift). Links 1:1 coaching - this is where you’ll find all the info on my 1:1 coaching packages, including my current special offer for one-off packages. £333 £111 when booked by 15/12/2023. Rebellious Artists’ and Creatives’Café - a new free monthly online gathering space for artists and creatives to come together to connect, share and feel part of a community. Join us on November 24th when we’ll be discussing burnout. Trauma Sensitive Theatre & Performance Making Course - live round running early 2024. Thanks for listening!
