    Sep 18 2024

    In this episode of Your Creative Compass, we explore the powerful Wild Woman archetype and its deep connection to creativity and the Divine Feminine. Inspired by Clarissa Pinkola Estes’ Women Who Run With the Wolves and the Celtic goddess Brigid, Kristy delves into how modern-day life often suppresses our creative expression, leaving many women disconnected from their intuitive, untamed selves. She reveals how this disconnection is closely tied to burnout and soul-level exhaustion, offering ways to reconnect with our inner Wild Woman through small rituals, creativity, and honoring life's natural cycles. Tune in for a soulful conversation about rekindling your creative spark, healing through self-expression, and embracing your feminine power.

  • Episode 7: My Year of Daily Creative Habits
    Sep 4 2024

    Welcome to another episode of "Your Creative Compass"! This week, we're diving into the power of small, daily creative habits and how they can completely change the way you feel—both in your creative life and beyond.

    If you've ever found yourself in a cycle of intense creative bursts followed by burnout, you're not alone. This episode shares the story of how one small decision—to cross-stitch for just a few minutes every morning—became a year-long experiment that reshaped not just creative energy but emotional well-being too.

    What started as a way to stay consistent without burning out turned into something deeper—a mindful, almost meditative practice that brought balance and focus to everyday life. By keeping things simple and sustainable, creativity became less about conquering big projects and more about finding joy in small, daily moments.

    Whether you’re looking to add a bit more calm to your morning routine, or you’re curious about how a little creativity can regulate your energy and emotions, this episode is packed with insights. Tune in to hear how starting small can lead to big shifts and discover why a few minutes of daily creativity might just be the habit you didn’t know you needed.

    Join us for some inspiration and practical tips to help you bring more balance, creativity, and peace into your everyday life!
