Making Time for Art & Motherhood with Skye Miller

Today's guest episode is with the beautiful, wise, intuitive artist Skye Como Miller. Making time for our creative practice is a never-ending juggle, fitting it in with our different responsibilities. Juggled in between day jobs, part-time jobs, business admin, or caregiving children. We also live in a society that conditions us to hustle and grind.

I wanted to delve into this topic of making time for art & motherhood, with intuitive artist, entrepreneur and mother of 3 beautiful kiddos, Skye Como Miller.

This whole episode feels like an exhale, with so many wise, deep gems throughout. Listening to this, I just want to melt in it. You're in for such a treat with our first guest this season 2.

Skye Como Miller is an artist and author based out of Greenville, South Carolina. She paints contemporary blue florals that embody the energy of Nostalgia and Romance. Her work revolves around themes of slow living, remembering the sweetness of childhood, and finding the extraordinary in the ordinary. 

The color blue helps us process our fears and any grief that manifests in this wild and wonderful life. Blue helps us express those deep feelings, but then ushers us into a place of comfort and resolve. Blue is sky and water, it is peace and safety, it is midnight and dawn, both expansive and grounding.
