Part 2: Transitioning from Corporate to Heart-Led Entrepreneurship

In Part 2 of this conversation on Creative Hearts, we talk about what authenticity looks like in professional spaces, especially within cultures that reward people-pleasing and emotional suppression. Maysa shares her experience transitioning from corporate life into freelance work, and the identity shifts that come with choosing yourself over safety. Maysa shares the unlearning of choosing freedom over security to inevitably reshape her sense of worth. We talk about the different layers of the feminine and the ongoing dance between masculine and feminine energies. We also touch on healing paths, everything from Vipassana to Ayahuasca, and why there’s no single right way to heal. If you’ve ever wondered whether doing the inner work is worth it, we speak honestly about what healing gives you: more choice, truth, and a life that feels more aligned.

Rediscovering Creativity: What I've Learned So Far

In this solo episode, I’m sharing a bit of my own story—what it’s been like to find my way back to creativity in my mid to late 20s. I talk about the things that have helped along the way, like The Artist’s Way, morning pages, and learning to balance the softer and stronger parts of myself. I also reflect on how culture, upbringing, and ideas of “success” can shape the way we see creativity—sometimes keeping us from it entirely. This episode is really about remembering that creativity isn’t reserved for a chosen few—it’s something we all have access to. It can be healing, grounding, playful, and even powerful. And it gets to look different for everyone. Some threads from this episode: Creativity as a journey of self-discovery and authentic connectionEveryone has the potential to be creative—regardless of job title or backgroundThe Artist’s Way and morning pages as tools for reflection and creative recoveryBalancing feminine and masculine energies to support creative flowPrioritising time for yourself as a way to shift your realityNature as a powerful source of inspiration and healingThe role of community and creative expression in fostering belongingHow cultural conditioning can shape (and limit) our ideas of creativity and successWhy creativity deserves to be valued alongside more traditional career paths
