About this listen

 Do you feel your soul calling you toward a more creative life? Is there something powerful that wants to come through your unique being? The call of our unexplored potential does not diminish with time. If anything it gets louder and more difficult to ignore. We believe that when you honor the creative impulse, by showing up and being present, it unlocks profound insight and personal growth.

The Golden Flower is a symbol of radiance, receptivity, and consciousness. As we unfold the mystery and beauty of the creative process, we embrace the transformation that comes from being in harmony with our deepest vision and expression.


We are Angela and Gemma, two mothers, artists, coaches, and meditation teachers, who have come together to begin a new cycle of creative self-expression. Join us for an energizing, free-flow conversation that will open the door on new perspectives and shine fresh light on your endeavors.

Tune into possibility with The Golden Flower. A sanctuary for your creative soul.

    #13 The Creative Journey; A Rite of Passage?
    Jul 29 2024
    Making the conscious choice to engage with our creative calling, is for many of us a choice made against the tide of our environment, expectations and societal/cultural norms.

    Claiming space to explore creative expression is an initiation into expanded consciousness. It is often what catalyses the shift from being a consumer (of reality) to a Creator.

    Space in our being for holding different perspectives is perhaps the peak arc of the creative journey, denoting flexibility within the mind; letting go, shedding skin, and the capacity to keep changing our minds (over and over again).

    As within any ecosystem, decay and shedding are essential for new growth and the creative life makes space for the micro and macro cycles of transformation in which nothing is wasted.

    Being able to hang out in uncertainty does not come easy. We are conditioned to hold a fixed perspective as our preference and source of safety. When under pressure do we react or create?

    Perhaps the gift of claiming space to create, is the experience of taking ownership of our thinking process.

    #12 Support Your Creative Journey
    Jul 7 2024
    Our Creative Life often doesn't receive the support and attention it deserves. It can feel like we are chasing crumbs of inspiration to keep the sparks from going out. Sometimes we miss out on the deeper conversations that can bridge our everyday lives and the mysteries following our creative callings. It's tough to go it alone. Creating space for accountability and support on the less travelled road was the guiding force for Angela and Gemma teaming up to create the Golden Flower Podcast. We both agree that our deep dive conversations have been a touchstone and catalyst in keeping creative dreams alive and flourishing. Join us as we share personal insights and reflections on the role of trust, willingness, hope and devotion on The Creative Journey.

    #11 Is Your Creative Life For Sale?
    Jun 22 2024
    What’s your intention for your art? Clear intentions beget clear actions. It used to be enough to make art, now we want our art to pay the bills. What happens when our love of the creative process becomes corroded by the expectation of financial reward? Does it still feel good? We know our intentions by the quality of our experience if we are not enjoying our writing, drawing, painting, music making…etc are we asking too much from it?

    In today’s episode, we discuss how goals, desires and intentions may overlap but are distinct from one another. It’s through self-reflective questioning that our true intentions surface. Are we in it for the love or the promise of return? Some people thrive on the art as a commerce model. This episode is for you if you’re feeling bitter, disillusioned and disheartened about your creative journey. It might be time to reset your intentions.

    This weeks Creative Challenge: What do you love? Who do you love? What do you stand for?
