How Far We Come
Living a life that feels aligned is hard, and Steph and Allison know that story all too well. Join them on their journey to rediscover themselves, reclaim their creativity, get real, and release the shame that keeps us comfortable feeling bad. Through a lens of humor, emotion, and pop culture, Steph & Allison share their experience of getting their mental and physical health in order - from the tools and modalities they are trying, discussing what works and what doesn’t, the unexpected ways in which our physical and mental health are connected, and so much more. How you think affects how you present yourself to the world, so come along for the ride as we lay the foundation to feel aligned with our purpose - whatever that is!
How Far We Come
The Artist’s Way Week 12: Recovering a Sense of Faith & Our Final Episode
Steph & Allison have reached the final week of The Artist's Way - what a journey it has been! This week brings us the trust we have developed over the course of the program to set our creative aims and commit to the tools we have learned. Trust, mystery, imagination at play, and the concept of "escape velocity" are the themes that close out week 12. A reminder that creativity requires faith and trust in ourselves, that creativity begins in darkness, that we were created to make art, and to set our sights and not let doubts stop us.
But first - the Olympics, what is missing? And, Allison is experiencing a love/hate relationship with this time of year. Steph is loving one of her morning rituals a little extra this week, and hating the disconnect from ourselves that we as a society have created.
In closing out The Artist's Way, we have also decided it is time to close out the podcast. The purpose of this podcast was to help us navigate our way back to our creativity - and it did just that. We have discovered creative paths we want to take and setting down the mics will allow us the time to focus on these new pursuits. This has been such a fun and meaningful outlet for us and we are so grateful for how far we've come. Thank you for listening and coming along for the ride.
