Creating with Intention: Artistry, AI & Authenticity with Olguta Goddard

Art is changing and very fast. But even as technology evolves, our creativity and human touch will always matter most.

In this episode, I’m joined by Olguta Goddard of Oh My Goddard Photography to talk about artistry, authenticity, and navigating creativity in the age of AI. Olguta shares how she’s stayed grounded in her artistic vision, protected her energy, and kept creating from the heart, even when trends, tools, and expectations shift around her.

We talk about finding your creative rhythm again, balancing rest and reinvention, and trusting your instincts when it feels like the industry is moving faster than ever.
