This is what comes through when a really good self-development book rocks you in the most gentle way (file this under things I never thought I’d say). Enjoy this off the cuff episode where I encourage you to stop psyching yourself out and get busy. This minisode will go down as highly underrated yet highly effective. Go team!
Please rate and review the show if this episode spoke to you. Thank you in advance!

This episode is a good one. I get into what’s been going on the last two months (in the studio and in life) and how the solutions & takeaways I found can translate into getting YOU out of your own slump. Let’s call it the weather, let’s call it S.A.D. but whatever it is, we don’t have time for it -- bigger and better things lie ahead.
I also get into how I reinfused my practice with the nostalgic practices that made me so happy in 2018 & 2019, reconnecting with the daily habits that help hold me together and there’s even a few subpar jokes sprinkled in. You're welcome. Remember to rate & review the show if you loved this episode! Enjoy!

In today's episode I get you caught up on what my last few months of working for two shows (opening on the same day!) have been. Through this retelling, I offer up gallery insight, gauging your capacity to work and working smart during this busy season, cuting back on drinking and really taking this sh!t seriously!
I also give you tips for journaling for future you – let’s set you up for success, mentally and hey… maybe even physically.
PS: This episode was recorded on-the-go in my studio on my ol' iPhone (not my normal setup or mic) so I appreciate your understanding with the wonky audio!

Friend to Friend is a monthly bonus episode released the last Sunday of each month. In these episodes, I answer the questions you've submitted anonymously on the air. Nothing is off limits --- Friend to Friend is the ultimate free advice segment.
This month is heavily based around artists getting stuck on 5 primary areas that I get asked about over and over again: how to work with galleries, how to choose materials, scheduling your studio time, maintaining motivation and finding purpose within your work.
Be warned: It gets a little spicy but I mean well. Let's dig in.

In today's episode I theorize about the downfall of the internet, my commitment to always being at peace (no matter the cost, literally) and urge you to check-in and see what you want out of life today & the next few weeks. I also share my travel tips for my recent trip to Austin, Texas and why I can't wait to go back. There’s more topics to chew on than just these, per usual, so enjoy the ride!

In the second part of my artist talk, we get into the details of the paintings that build out the collection. For the full experience, listen here while following along on the site (click on the link below.)
You’ll be taken on a visual tour of the work from Conversations with Myself, as I go over my aesthetic choices, call back to older compositions and unique stories on each available work, image by image, in the order they are laid out on my site. This tour provides wonderful insight for collectors and artists alike.
This 2 part mini series is great for any collector wanting to gain more insight on how/why I create my work and to gain specific details on the pieces they've fallen in love with from this body of work.

Hi fam! I wanted to create this episode before we get too far into the holiday season as a little insurance for your headspace. I get into what burnout is, how to overexpose yourself to your calendar in order to normalize "busy" and offer tips to continue growing while cutting back on overwhelm -- It's a fine line.

In today's episode I go over my discoveries in a recent journaling meditation in preparation for this episode all around self-doubt. I get into what causes self-doubt but maybe more importantly, what creates self-confidence (to me, the opposite of self-doubt). I also share some recent, very helpful tools and tips to assist you in moving through this season of life as well.

In this episode, I update you on how I snapped out of my recent downturn and am now, thankfully, as you’ll hear, buzzing around town. It's been a commitment to myself and a commitment to a daily practice. I also share my current reads/recs in rotation for mindset maintenance, how I choose to rotate through what I read each morning (this part is important) and how you can step into this energy yourself -- All it takes is the decision to begin.

This month you were curious about fuel, movement and planning out for Q4 - some of my favorite topics! So I’m sharing different ways I spend time creating in the kitchen, what kind of movement I’ve been loving this year (and why) & what’s the most important thing to prioritize for a successful Q4 as an artist, person and entrepreneur. Enjoy xx

In this episode, I give you a really beautiful journaling prompt (that I found in my Superhuman meditation the morning I recorded... I know… I’m sorry, the app is just so vital to my day! My life! I can’t make this stuff up. This wasn't planned. Promise.)
We will discuss the energy & importance of the words Inviting VS. Bringing and how this language can impact our approach to life. How are living with and open invitation rather than shouldering all of your success solo?
Let me know if you stick to the 2-week or 30 day challenge with the daily journaling prompt & tag me on IG in your stories! I’ll be doing this along with you and can't wait to hear how transformative this experience is for you.

Hi my friend! In this episode I discuss where I've been hiding the last few weeks, what's been going on with my headspace, providing helpful insight for anyone else going through the Rosies (or that is my hope, anyway). I also get into how important real life conversations are with other creatives and I dare you to pick up the telephone. Oh and of course... I get into a little convo about meditating. But what else is new?

Listen, I’m not trained in public speaking but I’m definitely making Einstein proud with this episode. So that's gotta count for something. This episode ranges from art being a science, us as creatives needing to push our ‘scary’ thoughts out & onto the canvas and so many other little tangents that I know SOMEONE out there needs to hear. Happy listening.
