Creatively Overcoming Perfectionism & People-Pleasing
Striving for perfection and constant people-pleasing not only keeps us stuck seeking external validation, it also leaves us disconnected from our creativity, our needs and desires. Deep down below layers of the “nice person” is a wild and free creator who isn’t afraid to make mistakes or get messy. In this episode we explore deconstructing the programs and scripts that keep us stuck and offer tools and practices for becoming real with ourselves and those around us…and how the creative process and the imagination can get us there.

The Art of Vulnerability
Making art or engaging in any creative endeavor requires a certain amount of vulnerability. So does just being ourselves in the world in an open and authentic way, especially when things feel risky or uncertain. In this episode, we address the challenges of “showing up naked” and being seen for who we are in life and how creative expression supports the practice of vulnerability by getting honest and up close with ourselves. Join hosts Jenny Hahn and Stephanie Gray for a raw and revealing conversation!

Creative Transformation: Rewiring Our Experiences With Creativity

Join hosts Jenny Hahn and Stephanie Gray as they share thoughts and experiences of their own on this important topic.
