Today, I brought back my best friend, Taryn, to talk about the creative self and how important it is to have an outlet in your life. Creativity has always been a big part of our relationship. We met in Los Angeles years ago while pursuing singing and songwriting. To this day we both prioritize our creativity even when it’s been hard to. I felt especially impressed to talk about the importance of stories and claiming our experience by living in them (as inspired by Stephanie Sellers) and I'm more committed now than ever to living a creative life.

Today, I want to talk about ambition. Right now, I’m in the middle of my own reckoning with it. If you’re feeling the same way, then this episode is for you. We’re beginning to dismantle what ambition means and how it shows up. It’s not us that’s the problem but the environment. I don’t want to feel like I have to contort, trim, or lessen who I am to fit an idea the world presents to me. So I’m opting out. Demolishing ideas and beliefs to rebuild one brick at a time. My question becomes….does ambition have a place in my life if it’s not the hustle and grind way? Let’s talk about this.

Family Mobbing is a phenomenon where daughters in families are estranged or shunned and singled out because they don't follow the family’s explicit or implicit rules. It’s something Stephanie A. Sellers experienced in her own family and why she’s here today to discuss her book, Daughters Healing from Family Mobbing. Stephanie holds a doctorate and has been on the faculty at Gettysburg College since 2000, during which time she was the inaugural director of the Women's Center from 2009 to 2015. She has been a volunteer counselor advocate in shelters and a community organizer for decades.

If you're unsure about wanting children and how to make that decision, this episode is for you. As a driven and creative woman, I was frightened by the idea of motherhood. I wondered if it meant losing my sense of self. Or postponing my goals until my children were grown. I worried about how society, and even my husband, would perceive me. In this episode, I'll share what almost made me reject the idea of having children, how I eventually realized I wanted them, and the most surprising parts of motherhood.

If you consider yourself a creative spirit this episode is for you. Join me and Jamie Varon as we talk about Taylor Swift, the advantage of starting your creative journey later in life, the fear of exposing yourself and being honest, overcoming guilt and shame for expressing yourself, and how believing you deserve the life you want isn't an outcome. It's only the beginning. Jamie is the author of Radically Content, a designer, digital course creator, and creative consultant living in Calabasas, CA.

My most unbelievable manifestation story yet: how I got tickets to Taylor Swift’s sold-out Eras Tour after getting on a train to MetLife Stadium ticketless and without a prospect of getting one. Read on, or listen in, to hear a miraculous tale about not taking no for an answer, the power of desire, and unquestionable kindness. I hope this inspires you to believe, be brave, and be fearless in pursuing what you desire.

Motherhood. Entrepreneurship. Often, women are unsure if they can do both. Or if they even want both. Growing up, I believed motherhood meant losing yourself. And becoming invisible to the world. Boy, was I wrong. With a little girl now of my own, my idea of what women are capable of expanded. That’s why I love this conversation with Hayley Clark, founder of Honey Mark. As a mama of 4 and a successful business owner, I had to talk to her about being a woman, mother, and dreamer.

How do I know if my intuition is speaking to me? With creativity, how do I get myself to focus and zone in? These are great questions to ask and ones I’ve thought about over the years. In this compilation episode, I hope to give you insight and inspiration to fuel creativity within yourself.
