Creative by Nature Podcast with Jess Madenford
Because creativity isn’t something you do — it’s who you are.
Creative by Nature blends self-expression, personal growth, and wellbeing in ways you can actually use. This podcast is for anyone ready to reconnect with their inner spark — whether you’re deeply creative or someone who has never considered themselves “creative.”
You’ll hear stories and guidance for those moments when you pause and catch yourself thinking things like: “I used to have such a big imagination as a kid — what happened?” Or when you wonder, “Can I really trust myself?” Maybe you notice how often you’ve been silencing yourself just to fit in, or feel that surge of inspiration but don’t know where to begin.
Each episode meets you in those moments of doubt and “where do I even start?” feelings, helping you reconnect with your spark, trust yourself, and take simple, practical steps to express who you really are. Whether you want to feel more confident in your creativity, explore your intuition, or bring a little more mindful, inspired living into your day, Creative by Nature offers practical guidance, gentle support, and ideas you can experiment with right away.

She Grew Herself: A Journey Through Trauma, Truth, and Chosen Family
She didn’t just survive—
She grew herself. 🌱
In this raw and powerful episode, She Grew Herself: A Journey Through Trauma, Truth, and Chosen Family, we meet a courageous young woman under 25 who has already faced what many spend a lifetime untangling. From growing up around addiction and absent parents to navigating intergenerational and sexual trauma in a small rural town—she chose healing, self-discovery, and a future rooted in purpose.
Now a Clinical Mental Health Counseling grad student, Aaliyah McGowan's not only rewriting her story—she’s manifesting a life that honors her spirit, advocacy, and truth.
This is a journey of breaking cycles, embracing chosen family, and becoming who you were always meant to be.
