The Reclaimed Podcast

Royce Hunt-Bell, Jane Bellante

The Reclaimed Podcast What are you ready to reclaim? Something forgotten can become the starting point for something extraordinary. So can a part of yourself you’re ready to rediscover. Join Jane Bellante and Royce Hunt Bell of RoyCycled Treasures for conversations about reclaiming what has value—in the things we create and the lives we choose. **Meet Your Hosts** Reclaiming begins with seeing possibility. As artists, we see potential in things that have been discarded or overlooked. Working with those materials has a way of changing how we see ourselves, too. The Reclaimed Podcast follows that connection. A conversation about an old object can open into a question about creativity. Making something our own can lead us to consider how we spend our time, or how much of our identity we’ve shaped around someone else’s expectations. We’re curious about what happens when we take another look at what’s already there—and decide what we want to make of it. ## Meet Jane & Royce We’re Jane Bellante and Royce Hunt Bell, two artists who know how much possibility there is in a second look. Jane is a mixed media artist and identity and leadership coach whose work explores the relationship between knowing yourself and creating what comes next. Royce is the artist behind RoyCycled Treasures, bringing a love of transformation and creative possibility to the conversation. Together, we’re exploring what reclaiming means in our work and in our own lives. We’d love for you to join us. What would reclaiming look like for you? It could begin with something you found at a thrift store. It could begin with making time for an idea you’ve wanted to explore for years. It could begin with realizing that who you are today gets to influence what you choose next. That’s where our conversations begin. **The Reclaimed Podcast · With Jane Bellante & Royce Hunt Bell**

    Finding Yourself Again Through Creativity

    Episode 1: Reclaiming Your Creativity—and Yourself What happens when you give yourself time to create simply because you love it? In the first episode of The Reclaimed Podcast, Jane Bellante and Royce Hunt Bell of RoyCycled Treasures share why their private conversations became a podcast and what reclaiming means to each of them. We talk about rediscovering yourself after years devoted to family and giving your creativity a place in your life. Royce shares what happens during her Mad Scientist Mondays, where experimentation becomes a way to discover what she loves. Jane reflects on a moment during her master’s degree when a mentor helped her move through resistance—and how taking that step opened up new possibilities. Along the way, we explore comparison at the art table, the willingness to be a beginner, and how confidence gained through creating reaches into other parts of life. We also talk about gratitude and how what we pay attention to shapes what we notice. Our invitation for this first episode: give yourself time to make something because you enjoy making it. The experience itself has value. Next episode, we’re asking: What are you ready to reclaim? Find The Reclaimed Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube.
