The Conscious Creative

Balancing Your Everyday World with Pursuing Your Creative Vision

Our episode today has been inspired by a delicate conversation I recently shared with one of my lovely clients in my “Creative Power” coaching space. This client asked me… how can I balance my time and energy between my outside world, and that of my creative process?
 
I actually believe that this is one of the biggest and most common challenges I see standing in the way of so many beautiful people like you, wholeheartedly pursuing your creative dreams and visions. Within this episode I'll be exploring what finding balance actually means, as well as what constitutes our “everyday world”? 
 
I’ll also be touching on some of the practical pathways to finding balance, which include nurturing your mindset, cultivating your intentions, implementing devotional creative rituals and routines, energy management, establishing a support system, and allowing your creative space to be your safe harbour. 
 
As always I cannot wait to share all of the deliciousness with you in this episode, and I truly hope that your heart receives all that it needs from this uplifting discussion.
 
Love Stephanie

Growing Through Grief with Ellie Bambury

I have such a wonderful conversation to share with you on the podcast today, between myself and my incredible friend Ellie Bambury. Ellie is a Soul-first Grief Guide and a Funeral and End of Life Celebrant, and she is here to guide others through their journey with grief in a soulful, holistic, and uplifting way.
 
A large part of Ellie's work encapsulates creating safety and a supportive space to evolve, within sincere and beautiful relationships. She is here to help others build the life they desire after loss, and magnetise aligned souls who can truly hold them and reflect who they are becoming as they move through loss and transition. 
 
Together Ellie and I will be discussing grief as a holistic experience, and how grief is a core emotional energy that is integral to our unique personal growth, transformation and evolution. It is such an honour to hear Ellie sharing her abundance of wisdom and lived experience on the powerful pathways of grief, and how through allowance, grief can be an extraordinary opportunity for heart healing, more intimate connection with ourselves and with others, and a playful arena for expressing the truth of our whole selves.

Creativity Is Not About Finding Happiness...

If creativity is not about finding happiness, then what is it really about? 
 
The true promise of connecting with our creative energy is that it will take us through and beyond moments of happiness, and into something so much deeper and richer and vast… if we are willing to embrace all parts of the journey.
 
Connecting with our unique creative energy is actually about building something sustainable and everlasting. It is not about finding happiness, but it is about nurturing a long-lasting sense of fulfilment. 
 
I hope this conversation challenges your ideas about creativity, as much as it has challenged and empowered my own.

Creating With Intention

Warmest of welcomes to you and your beautiful creative heart. It is such a pleasure to be sharing this expansive conversation with you today, all about creating with intention.
 
I believe that a conscious creative process is a constant journey of finding balance between cohesion and curiosity. Having a strong and clear intention for your creative process will provide that necessary balance; the balance between freedom and purpose.
 
Intentions will serve as your gentle guiding light, holding you through the difficulties and challenges of your wholehearted creative journey. In this episode I will be exploring what intentions are and where they come into the creative process.
 
I will also be addressing the most common mistake I see people make when it comes to intention setting, as well as the most important question you need to ask yourself when it comes to writing your creative intentions.
 
Intentions are the powerful heart of your creative process, and I’m so pleased to be illuminating their deep significance and incredible strength when it comes to bringing your creative ideas to fruition.

Self Love & Authentic Expression with Bec Connaughton

There are so many beautiful parallels between the relationship we have with our creative energy and the relationship we have with ourselves. Our authentic expression and sense of creative freedom is ignited within the flames of self love, and from how deeply connected and aligned we are with our truth. I feel so grateful to be gracefully undressing the true nature of self love and authentic expression with the glorious Bec Connaughton, in the newest episode of The Conscious Creative today!
 
Gorgeous Bec is a Self Love and Connection Coach, inspiring others to experience more love and connection in all areas of their lives. She supports humans to deeply trust themselves and their knowing, to tap into their unlimited potential, and to believe that anything is possible for their one, beautiful life. 
 
I am so excited for you to indulge in this gentle and touching conversation all about self-love. Where does self-love begin and blossom from, and why can loving ourselves feel so challenging and uncomfortable? Exploring the concept of loving ourselves as an art form, understanding in what ways embracing our creative expression can be a gorgeous act of self-love, and illuminating the beautiful potential for forgiveness and healing in this journey of acceptance.

Opening To Inspiration

Welcome to this magical and enchanting conversation all about opening to inspiration!! How glorious and golden and mystical is the energy of inspiration?
 
I’m so excited to be guiding you in this beautiful discussion today, beginning with an exploration into what inspiration is and the different roles it plays in relation to the creative process and creative living.
 
I’m then going to be speaking about what I believe are the foundations of inspiration; safeness, optimism and abundance, spaciousness, ritual, surrender, and bliss. 
 
We will be looking at where we need to facilitate an opening or a gateway within ourselves for inspiration to blossom fruitfully, creating an understanding of what inspiration actually needs from us in order for it to feel warmly welcomed.

Creative Movement

I was intending to approach this topic of creative movement from the angle of taking action. Exploring the importance of taking action on your creative ideas and dreams, and choosing to consciously move forward with your creations from a place of aligned and integral direction.
 
While this topic is important and a part of our conversation today, I felt that it might be too narrowly focussed on the creative process alone. I wanted to traverse a little deeper than this, a little wider. I wanted to explore creative movement as a whole embodiment.
 
What you will find in this episode… it won’t be what you think. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I’ve enjoyed creating it.
 
Love Stephanie

Trusting Yourself with Thea Müller

It’s such an honour to be sharing this very delightful, inspiring and potent conversation with one of my dear friends Thea Müller. I feel so grateful to be exploring the topic of trusting yourself and trusting your creativity with her in today’s episode.
 
Thea is a wonderfully gifted Intuitive Coach, Yoga Teacher and Sociologist specialising in trust and wellbeing, which is also the topic of her PhD research. Through her 1:1 coaching Thea guides ambitious, heart-led humans to stop playing it safe, build unwavering trust and inner connection, and go all in on their dreams.
 
In our conversation Thea illuminates her wisdom, insight and lived experience when it comes to cultivating trust within ourselves and within the creation of our dream life. She starts by sharing her beautiful personal journey with us, and how leaning into trust has allowed her to create the lifestyle of her dreams.
 
Our discussion also touches on: 
 
Creativity is connection. A connection with our own energy, desires, and ideas.
The powerful foundations of trust, and the importance of building trust when we feel resistance.
Embracing the presence of uncertainty and discomfort, and fostering a sense of safeness in the journey of nurturing trust.
Exploring trust as a physical sensation and embodiment.

Creative Power

I believe that the journey of remembering and reconnecting with our creative power is the essence of the Conscious Creative. 
 
In this episode I’ll be starting to explore the energy of creative power, which is the divinely inspired name for my signature 1:1 Creative Coaching series. 
 
Our creative power is not separate from who we are as a gorgeous human being, or from our unique experience of life. Our connection with our creative power can deeply influence our relationship with ourselves and with others, as well as our capacity to beautifully express our hearts truth and share our stories.  
 
But where does our creative power actually come from? As an energy what is it comprised of, and what does it feel like when we’re embracing it and harnessing it?
