Today I'm sharing another little clip from the Artists Rising Co. Mastermind, which is essentially group coaching that I do every Sunday night with a very special group of creatives. Today's clip is part of a teaching about the power of our thoughts and creating thoughts, which then lead to emotions, and how that is the very most important thing.  If you're interested in the Mastermind, message me...

Today I'm sharing a clip from the Artists Rising Co Mastermind where Sarah is sharing about how overwhelmed she feels sometimes when she looks at certain artists who seem like they are able to do everything on their own and she realized she's been blaming the fact that she felt alone or didn't have the right people around her had been holding her back from creating. We talk about some possible tho...

Telling some stories today about how opportunities came about in my creative life often in ways I didn't expect. We are wise to not have too many expectations about how everything needs to come about, but just stay open to delight and trust that are dreams are running to meet us any way they can!

Sometimes when we feel stuck in life or in our art, it's hard to see that there is progress happening or any forward movement. But change is always happening, and realizing it fully, is directly related to how we see things and if we are open to looking at things differently.

Just a reminder for you today that sometimes the very things that feel like our moments of desperation and despair where we finally break down and give in or give up? Those are usually the moments of breakthrough - but we can't often see it in the moment.  Join Songtober, the free Songwriting Challenge during the month of October: www.jennyrebecca.online/songtober Follow @artistsrisingco @iamjenny...

"The most self-centered, egotistical, narcissistic thing that you could do as a songwriter or as an artist is to stay alone, in your room, and never share it (your art) with anybody else. But once you share it...that connection is what cultivates culture. It what causes people to exchange ideas with people they would never come across in life.." -Nate Bernardini  It was such a pleasure interviewin...

There are four main stages to accomplishing any goal: 1. Learning 2. Implementing 3. Refining and 4. Maintaining...Most people never get to the refining stage...why? Because it is UNCOMFORTABLE. It requires us to embrace our imperfection and ask ourselves why something isn't working or getting us the results we want. When we can learn to separate our IDENTITIES from our ART, and COMMIT to refining...

Our emotions are a map. Our sadness, our anger, our loneliness, our fears...all of these feelings can actually be direct us into our healing and creativity can be our guide.

When was the last time that you properly fed her the things that she LOVES!!! Somewhere along the way, we grow up. And are just so busy feeding ourselves "shoulds", and "ought to"s and ways we need to improve ourselves but we so easily lose touch with delight, and one of the most important parts of being an artist is to stop forcing yourself all the time to get better! The MOST important part of b...

Whether you are publicly or privately pursuing art, I do believe that we are all artists, we are all creative. And we are born that way. I also believe that there is no end to the amount of creativity, and the amount of LOVE, we can experience in our day to day lives. In today's episode I'm sharing some examples of how this can look and I hope it inspires you!  Sign up for the Virtual Vocal Master...

Creative disciplines and spiritual disciplines lead us to the other...creativity leads me to sacred ground and spirituality invites me to connect with the life force of creativity and brings out all my colors! BOTH lead us to openheartedness...aliveness...boldness...and faith. May you experience a more alive and openhearted life as you listen and as you go through your day!

The truth about sustaining an artistic career or a creative life, is that the less seriously we take ourselves, the more serious work we will probably be able to bring forth. Our creative lives, just like marriage or committed relationships, need romance and playfulness and adventure!

Mini-episode about creativity as therapy...but not because we need to be fixed. Creativity is a therapeutic tool that can help us unravel and uncover our own authentic expressions, our own authentic voices.    I'm trying out a little experiment for the next few months with the podcast and I'd love to have your feedback! I'm going to try putting out a new episode every day - some will just be mini-...
