Break free from your creative rut and reignite your artistic flow with 'Unsticking It!' With each episode, we delve into the world of overcoming creative blocks, offering practical strategies, skilled insights, and inspiring stories to help you reclaim your creative soul-spark and find your way back to YOU!
Blaire and Molly are two busy moms/ actors (Mactors? Momtors? Exhausted?) who somewhere between potty training and the pandemic seemed to have lost their creative kaboom. They’re now enlisting the help of fellow imaginative minds to unstick themselves (and you) from the muck they’re stuck in!

06: The Rewarding Moment with Ana Breton
This week’s guest Ana Breton is a producer and director currently living the dream working with Eugenio Derbez-founded 3Pas Studios. While she is so grateful to be thrice-Emmy-nominated, she teaches us, “You just have to keep making the things that you like and lifting other people to do the same, and that’s truly the rewarding moment.”

05: Just Put on the Show with Joe Schiappa
Comedy writer and performer Joe Schiappa joins Blaire & Molly for a talk about always following your instincts to do the thing, even if that thing is an elementary school remake of the movie Annie, a solid five years after the movie itself came out. The collective love for Aileen Quinn aside, this episode reminds us all to never let the should-a’s get in your way.

04: Reclaiming Your Time with Mary Giattino
“Everyone deserves that TIME. That carved out section of your day that isn’t given to anyone, to NO ONE, but yourself.” Mary Giattino isn’t just the owner/ teacher at Stage Door School of Dance in Patchogue NY, she’s also a professional dancer and perhaps most importantly, Blaire’s best friend! And on today’s podcast, she shares the importance of “getting in the space,” and acknowledges that while none of us are fans of the negative voices in our heads… you can use them to push you to be your creative best.

03: Finding Curiosity in Fear with John Lorelli
Taking the leap can save you. We learn this and more from our guest, creative director John Lorelli, who reminds us that innate curiosity is what makes you creative, NOT just being labeled as “a creative,” and that fear and curiosity are not polar opposites. In fact, they can be besties!
Enjoy this episode with our new bestie, John.

01: Getting Quiet with Robyn Ivy
Welcome to Unsticking It! with Blaire & Molly. For our first foray into getting unstuck creatively, we talk to coach and mentor Robyn Ivy about how to free ourselves from our own obstacles in order to live a curious and excited artistic life. Robyn brings us to tears (very on brand for us) as she encourages us to stand in our creativity (“it’s revolutionary!”) and believe we belong there. It is, in fact, necessary for our survival and growth as the artists we know we are. Robyn gives us some necessary tools we can use TODAY to connect to our bold artistic selves.
You can find out more about Robyn Ivy on social media under her name, on her website, www.robynivy.com, and on her podcast “The Robyn Ivy Show”, wherever you listen to podcasts, or at www.robynivy.com/podcast.

Customer Reviews
Awesome Topic w/ awesome guests!
Love the show! Great insight & humility in moving forward to raise the bar! The ladies have such a good chemistry & always bring hilarity to every episode!
A joy to listen to!
If you need to feel inspired and also laugh and maybe cry, this podcast is for you! Molly and Blaire are so funny, thoughtful, kind and have an innate ability to weave intelligence throughout their conversation with their guests that creates space for creativity and silliness. It’s a joy to listen to these conversations - truly!
Thank you for the laughs!
Hilarious! These 2 ladies have a great dynamic together. Bringing in fun stories from their lives as parents and quoting reputable journals they bring to light all the nuances of parenting toddlers. Definitely a laugh out load podcast as I can relate to so many things! We can either cry or laugh about these challenging times as parents of toddlers and I’ll take the laughing route thank you very much. I cried enough when my baby was an infant.
