    Creative and Curious

    The best thing I did in order to learn to become a better writer was to hire an editor.  Little did I know that it would be the most terrifying thing too.

    Begin Again and Again and Again

    A few years ago, life pulled me deep into my creativity and away from social media and the outside world. Today, I’m not only a painter, but also a romance writer with three books under my belt — and a salsa dancer. I emerged more grounded, more passionate, and with new stories to tell.

    What is Clarity?

    I just got back from a big old pile of muddled thinking.  I was confused, lost, searching and honestly, a little scared.  It took a few things to get me out of that pile of grey stuff; a small internal voice, an irritated external voice and my own creativity.  It got me thinking about the … The post 2.002 What is Clarity? first appeared on Marika Reinke.

    025: Where’s the Motivation?

    There are days when I have thought that the last three or four weeks have been harder than the first weeks of this pandemic.  Even as we reopen, pandemics and protests and the growing realization that this summer won’t be what I thought it was, has really taken a toll and my and my family’s … The post 025: Where’s the Motivation? first appeared on Marika Reinke.

    023: My History of Being White and Racist, Antiracist and on Vacation

    I think we should be listening to black leaders telling their history and their experience.  I think we should be curious about it and directing our attention to them, especially now.  Make them center right now.  They have a lot of important, meaningful, uncomfortable points to make about America.  They are points, that if we … The post 023: My History of Being White and Racist, Antiracist and on Vacation first appeared on Marika Reinke.

    022: Let’s Create an Economy of Hope

    What would it be like if we truly put what we value first?  Would it change the way we think about money and each other? Instead of measuring what we have and hoard, can we measure what we value by how we invest in it?  In this episode, I explore the evolution of my thinking … The post 022: Let’s Create an Economy of Hope first appeared on Marika Reinke.

    021: Why Collect Tattoos and Art?

    Actually, it’s a bit of a mystery to me.  I haven’t thought of myself as a collector until recently.  Of course, I’m not just a maker and artist, I’ve always collected other people’s art for very meaningful reasons.  Art speaks an emotional language and  it marks major phases for me. The art I collect are … The post 021: Why Collect Tattoos and Art? first appeared on Marika Reinke.
