In this episode of the Provoking Prosperity podcast, host Miranda Mitchell engages in a profound conversation with award-winning writer and performance artist Shebana Coelho. Shebana shares her journey from India to traversing Tierra del Fuego and Mongolia, detailing how these experiences shaped her creative path. She discusses the impact of various cultural influences, traditional dances like flamenco and Bharatanatyam, and their role in her artistic expression. The discussion delves into themes of colonization, authenticity, community, and the quest for personal and collective liberation. Throughout the episode, Shebana's reflections on trust, vulnerability, and the importance of connecting with nature and ancestors provide rich insights into the life of an artist navigating the complexities of creative expression in a modern world.   About Shebana:   Shebana Coelho is an award-winning writer, performance artist, and workshop facilitator originally from India and now based in New Mexico. Her work centers on using creativity to liberate us from fear and colonization while nourishing a deeper connection to the body. A pivotal moment in her journey was leaving city life to explore vast landscapes like Tierra del Fuego and Mongolia, which reshaped her internal world and led her to dance forms like bharatanatyam and flamenco. These encounters deepened her emotional expression through movement. Guided by the phrase "following what calls," Shebana continues her mysterious journey of creativity and inspiration. Her work has earned a Fiction Fellowship from the New York Foundation for the Arts and a Fulbright grant to Mongolia.   Show Notes   00:00 Introduction to Shebhana Coelho 01:06 Exploring Creativity and Community 01:49 Welcome to the Provoking Prosperity Podcast 02:35 Shebana's Transformative Travels 03:59 The Power of Nature and Creativity 06:23 Cultural Influences and Personal Growth 12:16 Human Design and Personal Insights 15:47 Rest, Resistance, and Authenticity 20:51 Navigating Challenges and Trusting the Process 28:20 Embracing Fear as a Sign of Growth 29:04 The Influence of Dance on Emotional Expression 31:26 The Journey of Self-Expression Through Dance 39:35 The Power of Voice and Song 41:47 Exploring Identity and Colonization 46:06 Finding Connection in Faraway Places 51:50 Final Thoughts and Reflections
