E192 | Stuck in Worry? This One Mental Pivot Helped Me Reclaim My Power
Your Art Matters
Lately, I’ve been noticing how easy it is to get stuck in fear, focusing on what’s going wrong or what we don’t want. It happened recently when something scary happened with my son at school, and again while planning our upcoming event. But instead of spiralling, I tried something different… a simple shift that completely changed how I felt and what I did next. In this episode, I’m sharing what that shift was, and how you can use it when your thoughts start pulling you in the wrong direction. And if you’re curious about sharing your creativity with others—through teaching,...

E191 | The Power Of The Pineapple — A Metaphor for Living Life
Your Art Matters
Ever wonder why I’m always talking about pineapples? I am a huge believer in the power we have to design our own lives. Our thoughts, feelings and decisions shape the life we live today. Every action we take and what we pay attention to matters. This is where the pineapple comes in. It started as a bit of fun during a workshop—but it’s become something much deeper. A symbol of joy, focus, community, and creative freedom. 🍍 In this episode, I’m sharing the surprising story behind the pineapple and how one small decision turned into something meaningful that continues to...

A decision to stop doing it all the hard way. Alain reimagined his art business and began building something that could grow with him —...

It’s about how art connects us, not just to others, but to ourselves.

E187 | How to create an art membership so you get paid every month
Your Art Matters
Have you ever wondered if it’s actually possible to make a living from your art—without having to be connected, represented, or selling in galleries? Years ago, I had this wild dream. I wanted to make art on my own terms, work from anywhere in the world, be around creatives, and somehow still make a living. At the time, it felt completely absurd. But then I discovered this whole world I didn’t even know existed—a way to take what you know, love and do… and turn it into recurring income every month. And that’s what we’re talking about in today’s episode. I’m joined by someone...

E184 | Are you being brainwashed?
Your Art Matters
Last week, I found myself scrolling through social media—something I don’t do often—and within minutes, I was bombarded with conflicting opinions. One post told me I should be making art every day. Another said galleries were a waste of time. Someone else had a completely different take on pricing. It was a flood of “you should do this” and “you must do that.” And suddenly, I started questioning everything. That’s when I realised: this is exactly how we lose touch with ourselves. The sheer volume of information out there can cloud our judgment, pull us in different directions,...
