8. Are You Ready To Live A Creative Life?
<p>In today's episode, I found myself reflecting on the past 2 years since the pandemic hit, and how it forced us to look all around to see that life was more than unsatisfactory: we were deprived of truly living, and living creatively. My journey since then has been all about choosing myself and what this life has to offer, and leaning on heart and creativity more than anything else. </p> <p>This episode is for those of us still struggling to introduce the normalcy of play, creation, and imagination into our everyday lives. For those of us who had no choice but to continue working or living in environments that didn't encourage creation. For those of us who may even have that time and space now, but no one to play with. No idea how to start.</p> <p>Creation is about movement. Leaps. Doing something different. So I beg the question, Are You Ready To Live A Creative Life?</p> <p>I reference Black women writers and hosts <a href="https://twitter.com/johnica">Johnica Rivers</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/gabbyhickmon" target="_blank">Gabrielle Hickmon</a> of their Twitter space, <a href="https://twitter.com/artistswewillbe" target="_blank"><strong>Artists We Will Be</strong></a><strong>.</strong></p> <p><a href="https://www.urbannerdbeats.com/" target="_blank"><strong>"Cosmic" beat by Urban Nerd Beats</strong></a></p>

7. Your Art Is Your First Love. Will You Nurture It?
<p>When we think about relationships, we inherently know the basics of how to keep them alive: <strong>provide attention, communication, growth, care, and love (to name a few)</strong>. What if I told you there is a relationship between you and your craft, and there's a great chance the reason you feel so far away from it is that you aren't nurturing that relationship? It's become a burden, nagging you for not showing up for it. Your guilt is manifested in neglect because you can't bare to face the truth: you're scared to disappoint it. You know you're not putting in work. Shit, maybe you don't know how. You show up for other people, places, and things while your art is begging you to love and see it. Appreciate it, but not half-heartedly?</p> <p>In this episode, I discuss a moment that brought me to this realization, and how this realization is shaping how I not only see my art as a lover/child, but how important it is to show up for it and what it expects of me.</p> <p><br></p> <p>music by JustDanBeats</p>

6. When Is It Rest, And When Is It Fear?
<p>I've been away for a bit too long. And some may say I needed the break, while others (myself) knows any longer, and I might have quit. And while I advocate for quitting, I also stan for pushing through. Discernment is the key. And if you're not confident, confused, and unsure of which is which, a productive rest may be necessary.</p> <p>...but what is that?<br> </p> <p><strong>Article Mentioned: </strong><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/ditch-persona-find-your-muse-joe-lazauskas/?trackingId=JsA1%2FlH6SluBRKuKTuu0fw%3D%3D">"Ditch the Persona and Find Your Muse" by Joe Lazauskas</a></p> <p><strong>Audio by: </strong><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxy7CuSHeBr0o1T-Q3Sy6qA"><strong>F3licity Beats</strong></a></p> <p>Email me!<br> cynfrancillon@gmail.com</p>
