Hey, and welcome to This Creative Life - conversations with creatives on creativity and how can cultivate, inspire and nourish our creative souls. We’re back for 2022, and I can’t think of a better soul to start the year off with than Dr Marion Piper. Marion is a Creativity Coach and Copywriter based in Melbourne, Australia who is so damn passionate about creativity - she lives and breathes it. We had a deep chat about the beginnings of her creative life, and how it led to her studying a PHD in post traumatic growth which she discovered through the simple act of creative journalling. We also explore the mind-blowing concept that it’s not about time, it’s about energy when it comes to prioritising creativity, the creative process and how we all manage to skip a step in some way, and she shares the most perfect advice for creating on your own terms.

In today's ep, I chat with best selling author/writer/strategist, award winning creativity coach, tarot reader, meditation teacher, podcaster and all round good person, Jerico Mandybur, based in Sydney, Australia. Jerico's musings on introspection, perfectionism, cringe, social media and liberating ourselves through creative audacity are bound to leave you feeling inspired and ready to take on 2022 after recovering from the truly creatively challenging year that 2021 was. This is the last ep for 2021! This podcast has been so creatively cathartic for me - every conversation leaves me feeling more inspired, more passionate, more open, more playful, more connected to my creativity - and I hope you feel this too. I hope you feel called to create. Thank you so so much for your support this year.
