    2.24 - Navigating Grief's Roadblocks as a Creative with Guest Shelby Forsythia

    “How do you grieve not only the person you lost, but the person you can no longer be? … There are identities and parts of ourselves we lose when we lose people we love.” Shelby Forsythia In this special episode, Chelene sits down with Shelby Forsythia to discuss the trials and tribulations that grief brings us through, in all avenues of life. When we experience any form of loss in our lives, it can bring our creative journey to a halt. Not only do we feel isolated from the world around us, but our entire perspective and relationship to the world changes. Shelby Forsythia is a grief coach, author, and podcast host here to share her experiences and insights into grief. In 2020, she founded Life After Loss Academy, an online course and community that has helped dozens of grievers find their way after death, divorce, diagnosis, and other major life transitions. Following her mother’s death in 2013, Shelby began calling herself a “student of grief” and now devotes her days to reading, writing, and speaking about loss. Through a combination of mindfulness tools and intuitive questions, she guides her clients to welcome grief as a teacher and create meaningful lives that honor and include the heartbreaks they’ve faced. Her work has been featured in Huffington Post, Bustle, and The Oprah Magazine. If you or someone you know is experiencing grief, and is seeking support and community in this process, be sure to visit Shelby’s website. https://www.shelbyforsythia.com/life-after-loss-academy https://www.shelbyforsythia.com/permission-to-grieve @‌shelbyforsythia on IG, Facebook, Threads | Website: http://shelbyforsythia.com Want to stay updated with latest podcast news?

    2.23 - What does starting over look like for you? The Creative Rupture Point

    As we reach the end of 2024, take a moment to pause, dear creative listener. Where has your creative path taken you this year? In today’s episode, Chelene is here to discuss a point in the process you’ve all experienced at least once: the rupture point. A moment of extreme, energized clarity about what your project is supposed to be and do. The part of the processes where suddenly, everything clicks, and that long emotional rut you’ve been in finally passes. But this point comes with facing something you may have been avoiding - starting over. Maybe you realize your characters aren’t making choices that align with their personality, or maybe you discover a key ingredient to your project that shows you exactly how to get back to point Z. The rupture point doesn’t happen when you’re working on your project - it usually appears when you begin to ask yourself “what do I need in order to continue?” Check out our free worksheet on building your emotional narrative to protect your priorities.

    2.21 - Using creative projects for your personal growth

    The art of self expression brings us an opportunity to see ourselves in a light that we otherwise wouldn’t make time to acknowledge. Whether you are a writer, a podcaster, a singer, or an artist, you will always choose the project that best reflects you at that moment. So consider your current project - what is it telling you about yourself? In today’s episode we’ll explore the importance of self awareness in our work, and how it can help us gain the clarity we need to then build confidence in it.

    2.20 - Managing perfectionism: Embracing Imperfect Creativity

    “There are no limitations to who we can be” Chelene Knight How long has it taken you, dear listener, to acknowledge the truth behind your perfectionist nature? As creatives, the fight between freedom to be ourselves and dependence on how our work is received can feel like a never-ending spiral. But it can also be a good indicator of what we choose to prioritize. Finding creative balance requires a strong understanding of what our needs are and how they can be met. In today’s episode, we will address the significance of comparison, encourage the mess of our projects' early drafts, and explore Chelene’s concept of “goal dominoes” that can help you move away from perfectionism’s rigid direction, and toward your own path, at your own pace.

    2.19 - Are your limiting beliefs causing you to feel guilty about your creative life?

    Take a deep breath, folks. This episode was created to shine a light on our creative kryptonite: guilt. As you listen, think of how guilt creeps into your room as you finally sit down to feed your creativity. Is it an obvious, nagging voice reminding you of all the things you haven’t yet done? Or is it disguised as a feeling of numbness that stops you from coming up with new ideas? Whatever the case, invite that guilt into today’s conversation as we discuss how guilt affects us, not only as creatives, but in how we relate to others, and how we show up for ourselves.
