The Last Hurrah
ArtFelt
After 12 weeks of a creative deep dive, it's time to say goodbye. Dee, Adriana, Dee and Evangeline reflect on what this experience has meant for each of them and what they want to carry forward. Call our creativity hotline at 818-305-4187 and leave us a message about your journey!

Spiritual Sharks
ArtFelt
A shark must keep moving to stay alive. An artist must keep creating to stay alive. As we near the end of this 12-week journey, Adriana, Dee and Evangeline take a moment to reflect on all the changes that have happened since the beginning. What momentum do we want to continue? And, as we acknowledge our own growth and progress, what role (if any) does God play in all of this?

The Awful Truth
ArtFelt
In every transformative process, there comes a moment when you just have to face down some difficult realities. This week's one-on-one is with Adriana, and we fess up to some of the unflattering realities about things that are getting in the way of creative blossoming. (Shoutout: Nolwen Cifuentes, a photographer and finance influencer whose Instagram account, @dontbe.astarvingartist, has been helpful for me. Go on and check her out!) To leave us a message about your creative progress, call 818-305-4187.

One on One
ArtFelt
All creativity happens in a context, and part of that context is the people around us. This week is an intimate conversation between Dee and Evangeline about all the different kinds of relationships we have and the ways they intersect with our art. (This week we mention Dee's play Gunshot Medley which you can learn more about here: https://www.zoladee.com/plays)

Punishment Bonanza
ArtFelt
Sometimes you just don't get it done. Much as you wanted to, you planned to, you meant to...but you didn't. How can we speak to ourselves kindly when we don't follow through? How can we resist the temptation of the guilt spiral and just hang out, and hang in? (Big thanks to our listener Dylan for leaving us a message responding to last week's jealousy episode, 'Good for Brittany.' If you want to leave us a message, you can! 818-305-4187)

Good for Brittany
ArtFelt
What is the origin of the "tortured artist" archetype? And how can we learn to move through jealousy to a better channel of inspiration?

Cookie for Breakfast
ArtFelt
What is the intersection of creativity and money? How does our idea of abundance enable or impede our creative expression? And what's the problem, really, with eating a cookie for breakfast once in awhile?

The Rockstar Within
ArtFelt
Have you ever had a friend look out for your dreams, like a parent holding their hand out and guarding the birthday candles from being blown out by the wind? Sometimes our friends can envision or celebrate our biggest creative desires in a way that's difficult to do for ourselves. (Bonus: this week Christian's band The Stoned Ponies releases their first single, Falling! Listen to it on Spotify.)

Huevos Con Weenie
ArtFelt
Adriana's back with an incredible story of synchronicity involving a dog dentist and an old friend, Christian and Evangeline do a quick-blitz trip to meet a very small human, and Dee is ready with the lists of comfort foods. What helps us feel safe? How can we do those things for ourselves so we are free to create? This week is about self forgiveness and...yes, huevos con weenie.

Chicken Sightings
ArtFelt
As we delve into the second chapter, Dionna sets her sights on Paris, Evangeline celebrates a birthday, and Christian encounters not one but two chickens. What can it all mean? And how does time management support or inhibit creativity? Bonus: Adriana "phones it in" to give some perspective on creativity in a rapidly changing world.
