The Conscious Creative

Leading with Curiosity On Your Pathway of Self {Re}discovery with Bernadette Biggelaar

Within this special guest episode of "The Conscious Creative" we are joined by the brave, bright and delightful Bernadette Biggelaar for an enlivening and heartwarming conversation on self re-discovery.
 
Beautiful Bernadette is the owner and creator of "Butterfly and Bee Co." where she has designed and brought to life a collection of deeply inspiring journals based on astrology and the elements of earth, fire, water and air. Bernadette believes in digging deeper into what lights you up, chasing the beauty the Universe has to offer, and nurturing the gifts, potential, opportunities and strengths within, to live a life full of love, passion, purpose and joy.
 
Throughout this enchanting episode Bernadette will be sharing her intrinsic passion for self-discovery, and how her natural curiosity is the compass guiding her towards the life she has always dreamed of creating and experiencing. We will also be illuminating the idea of journalling as an art form, discussing how this powerful ritual of self-inquiry can be a source of nourishment and deep sustenance for our whole being… a sanctuary for release and healing, as well as a space for raw and honest creative expression. We will also be exploring Bernadette’s inspiring pathway into evolutionary astrology, and how we can all honour the fluid wisdom and guidance of our own cosmic blueprint as a gateway to knowledge, awareness, empowerment and self-sovereignty.

A Guided Meditation For Creative Connection

I have been feeling called to bring something delightfully different to this podcast space... something refreshing and easeful and intentionally supportive for you, as well as your creative energy.
 
Within this episode I am going to be guiding you through a meditation for creative connection.
 
The intention of this guided meditation is to support you in cultivating physical and emotional presence. It is a meditation for slowing down, relaxing your body and your breathing as much as you are able to, grounding your whole being to the Earth, and nurturing feelings of inner strength, stability and power.
 
This is a meditation for creative self exploration… for observing your own inner emotional landscape with curiosity, patience and compassion.
 
Love Stephanie

Debunking The Myth That Structure Stifles Your Creative Flow (When Actually… It Amplifies It)

There are many famous fables and myths surrounding the creative process… and perhaps one of the most timeless is that structure stifles, blocks and restricts our creative flow. Is this something you too have heard or come to believe in yourself?
 
Well within this episode I am going to be debunking and demystifying this very myth… beginning by exploring what the common misconceptions are when it comes to the relationship between structure and creative flow. I will then be bringing some light and truth to what structure actually looks like and should feel like when we’re inviting it into our creative process.
 
Throughout this conversation we will be deepening into a true appreciation for the support, amplification, enrichment and power that intentional structure infuses into our creative process.

The Impact Of Instagram On My Creative Expression

With every creative interaction and space of exploration, there are always going to be lessons and learnings gifted in reciprocity. Instagram is once of these spaces we collaborate with everyday, and in this episode I’m going to be exploring the impact and influence that Instagram has had on my creative expression.
 
Throughout this exploration I will be disclosing my personal reasons for leaving the platform, and what learnings have landed for me six months on from deactivating my account. I will also be touching on some of the more beautiful and empowering gifts that Instagram bestowed on me!!
 
In the journey of excavating our purest creative truth, it is deeply important for us to bring sharper attention, inquisitiveness, discernment and awareness to how we are interacting with the online world. Therefore I would love for this episode to be an invitation for you to witness how you are on social media, and how your creative energy interacts with and responds to being present on platforms and online spaces such as these.
 
Love Stephanie xx

Nourishing Our Innermost Truth with Clara Belle Kelly

I have the most wholesome and powerful conversation to share with you today. Within this episode we are going to be embarking on a raw and enriching excavation of nourishing truth… with my radiant friend and beloved client, Clara Belle Kelly.
 
Clara is a mentor and speaker who empowers women to nourish their innermost truth, and redefine their relationship with food and body. Healing her twenty-year long journey with an eating disorder became Clara’s calling to understand what it truly meant to nourish herself, and find belonging in her body. As a Certified Holistic Health Coach and Being Way Life Coach, Clara now stands as an advocate for holistic nourishment, ease, slower living and body belonging, while her pathway of 'Nourishing Truth' reveals a profound way to nurture ourselves from within.
 
Throughout this episode Clara will be revealing her own unique and unfolding journey towards holistic living, unravelling the layers of wisdom and truth that come from reconnecting with food and with our bodies. In our conversation we will also be touching on the purpose of food and the true meaning of fulfilment; we will be exploring the beautiful nature of holistic nourishment and holistic living; undressing the ripple effects that come from cultivating a more conscious, compassionate and empowering relationship with food and the way we eat; realigning ourselves with the needs and intuitive wisdom of our bodies; deeply and intentionally reconnecting with our emotional landscape, and nurturing an understanding of what it is we are truly hungry for; coming home to worthiness, self-acceptance and belonging by courageously tending to the path of our hearts and hearts desires, and creating an awareness of what it can feel like when we are disconnected from our truth; witnessing the joyfulness and pleasure and connection that can be experienced when we surrender to the loving guidance of our internal world; and how the simple practice of cultivating curiosity, nurturing slowness and attuning our presence… is the gateway to hearing and embodying more of our authentic truth.

Grounding Into The Energy Of Your New Year

It’s so wonderful and so exciting to be welcoming you back for a fresh new season of The Conscious Creative!! Arriving into this new year I have been consciously gifting myself with lots of spaciousness and breathing room, not just around my business but also within my personal life as well.
 
Within this episode I will be extending a personal invitation to you, to come into this new year with all of you. I will be gently gifting you with permission… permission to let yourself be exactly where and how you are, and permission to honour everything you need to regenerate and renew in alignment with your own intrinsic rhythm.
 
We will also be exploring some simple and creative suggestions for how you can consciously ground into the energy and intentions of your new year, and how you can easefully nurture and notice the symbols of synchronicity and alignment that are guiding you towards more of the energy you are wanting to welcome in.

Slowing Down And Giving To Yourself During The Christmas Season

It feels quite unbelievable that we’re now nearing the end of this year… and at the time of releasing this episode, we are only four weeks away from Christmas!!
 
Instead of adding to the chaotic, hustle and bustle of the festive season… what if we consciously choose to slow down and truly acknowledge our energetic capacity and energetic needs at this time? What if we created the intentional time and space to ask ourselves these three simple questions…
 
How do I want to feel come Christmas Day? 
What do I value most about Christmas?
What do I need to give and gift to myself now, so that I can honour my values and what's most important to me, during this Christmas season?
 
If you’re longing to experience an enriching Christmas season filled with connection and alignment, this episode will reveal how…

The Importance Of Patience In Pursuit Of Our Highest Potential

Patience is universal. It is inherent to the human experience, and a divine component to cultivating a conscious and wholehearted lifestyle; a lifestyle that is infused with trust, easefulness, authenticity and respect.
 
Within this episode we will be tenderly undressing the importance of patience, and why holding patience can sometimes feel deeply challenging. We will also be exploring the potential to become lost in a prolonged period of patience, and I will also be offering some simple suggestions for how you can cultivate patience with grace and compassion.   
 
I have absolutely loved creating this episode for you, and I now have a renewed appreciation for the incredible power of patience to elevate and enrich our creative exploration. 
 
Love Stephanie
