Скачать или смотреть Creativity: The Most Important Relationship We Have with Ourselves

I wanted to interview Cynthia Morris because she is one of the truly audacious women who have inspired me on my path. She is the most creative person I know, leading sketchbook trips around Lisbon and Paris, coaching writers and artists, making art herself, and being a published author.

In the first part of our discussion, we go deep, talking about her latest novel, Her Lisbon Colors, which follows a character who embarks on a journey of self-discovery and reinvention in Portugal that involves both romance and art, and keeping an amazing sketchbook.

We also discuss in the first part:

--the importance (and difficulty) of figuring out what is really important to us

--the role creativity has played in our journeys

--how women often feel they are being selfish when they commit their time and energy to creativity

--the inner work (and obstacles) of writing a book, which can be just as difficult as the outer work

--how Quantum Energy Coaching (QEC) has helped us both in our creative lives

--the (often negative) beliefs we hold around writing and their effect on us.

In the second part, available to paid subscribers on Substack, we go even deeper.

--Cynthia shares more about her journey self-publishing her novel and the emotional challenges it presented.

--We get more personal about challenges we’ve faced as creatives.

--We discuss in more depth the role QEC has played in our healing.

--Cynthia talks about how she makes a living as a creative person and coach, as I try to learn from her how to approach this next chapter of my life, learning to support myself. We discuss how and how much to diversify streams of income.

--Cynthia shares how she approaches marketing and putting herself out there, something that creatives seem to loathe but that we all need to learn to do well.
