    S5 Ep57 | Coco on using art and business as support in this challenging chapter of life

    My life is incredibly full right now and this episode we do a bit more unpacking together. I speak about how I'm choosing to let my art and business support me during this challenging time (spoiler: it's not financial support) and how I'm using my creativity to solve problems and pour my magic into all parts of this enormous project of moving my mom to memory care and selling our family home.  Thank you for being on this journey with me. I'm so grateful to have come back to making episode on the eve of my life changing course. I'm excited to use this medium as a way to alchemize it all (good and bad) and capture in real-time me stepping into my power, bringing peace to my family, and using creativity and compassion to close this chapter of my life. Please subscribe and share with your people. I would love to know how this is serving you so please leave me a review, DM me over on Instagram at @cocotheinspirationist, or support me by buying my art on Etsy (InspirationistArt) or on the shop on my website.

    S5 Ep 56 Solo with Coco on the INCREDIBLE shifts that are happening

    I'm back with the second solo episode of the season and let me just say-- It is STRAIGHT FIRE. Fully downloaded from the divine, I'd say :) I speak about the incredible shifts currently happening in my life, from my husband's retirement to finally convincing my mom to move into supported living. (Can you feel that ENORMOUS sigh of relief?!) It all happened at the exact same moment in time. WILD. I talk about finding the joy inside the hard, alchemizing the pain, and trusting in myself to always be able to support my wellbeing no matter what comes my way. And above all, the ability to set a positive intention and hold that vision. Intentionality is the key to living an inspired life.  Find all the mantras and affirmations I use throughout this episode in my Etsy Shop or on my website. Supporting the podcast can look like all sorts of things like buying my art, leaving a review, subscribing to the podcast, Dming, liking and commenting on Instagram, or just telling a friend about the work I'm putting out into the world.  Every bit helps because I believe we all have a Creative Self, and the more we learn about, pour into and tend to that side of us, the happier we will be.

    S5 Ep 55 | Justine Harrington on access points joy, building safety in our businesses, and following the nudges

    What a treat this episode was not only to record, but to revisit. We recorded this back in September and I see it now as a beautiful time capsule of just how hard things were for me back in the fall.  We speak about building safety in our businesses, listening to our intuition and following those nudges to create, and finding joy even in the hard times. It's a juicy one! It's a high vibe convo between two coaches that goes deep in all the ways. Satisfaction guaranteed!   Follow her personal instagram @jharrington106 Soul Sanctuary @soulsanctuary.ri   and the shop Sage + Flame @sageandflame

    S5 Ep 54 | Solo with Coco: Your girl's BACK with updates

    I'm BACK in the podcasting saddle and am so thrilled to (finally) be back in the swing of things. Podcasting is something that I love and yet after taking a much needed rest, life got life-y and the pause turned into more of a hiatus.  In this solo episode, I share with you a lot of what was happening behind the scenes (spoiler: shame) and reveal new knowings I've come to learn about myself after my ADHD diagnosis.  I reveal LOTS of personal life updates on my husband's retirement from the Coast Guard, my mom's evolved diagnosis, and VERY exciting projects coming this spring.  As always, I pull back the curtain and take you behind the scenes as I journey through idea to execution, and share the joys and challenges along the way.  Follow me on Instagram @cocotheinspirationist and don't forget to watch us bring our RV rental company to life over at @campymaine  Please subscribe and leave a review--it would mean the world to me and it helps get this pod out to more people!

    S4 | Ep 52 Solo with Coco on opening a retail shop (!) and the first disappointing stumbling block

    Lately, I've been receiving so many downloads and noticing that the more I say YES, the more clues I get for what feels alive.  Most recently, I received a lightening-strike-like download that I need to open a retail space. It was a FULL BODY YES and once it came through, I've been on a wild ride ever since.  This episode shares with you the juicy details and disappointing news that lead to a very false start, and how I'm positioning myself through let down (hint: I'm wide open).  I love sharing the journey with you. Because, let's face it, there is no destination. There is just alignment and inspired action...over and over and over again. Also, rest. Lots of rest. __________ You can support the podcast by sharing this episode, leaving a review or heading to my Etsy shop InspirationistArt and grab some art for your home :) Seeing my art in the world is just the best thing ever.
