In this special re-release, I’m sharing one of my absolute favorite conversations from the early days of Unleash Your Inner Creative…an episode so dear to me, it feels like a time capsule. You’ll even hear how my voice has changed, because I recorded this over six years ago, basically as a creative fetus. LOLz.
This powerful episode features the incredible visual artist, podcaster, and creative entrepreneur, Amanda Oleander. If you’re not familiar with her work yet, prepare to fall in love.
Amanda’s story is a shining example of what’s possible when you take a leap of faith on your creative calling—especially when life pushes you before you feel fully ready. From raw talent to becoming the most-followed woman on Periscope, Amanda’s rise is about so much more than art—it's about courage, self-belief, and embracing discomfort to create the life you’re meant for.
This episode made me emotional (I think it’s the first time I ever cried on the pod!) and helped me reconnect with my own creative power. I know it will do the same for you. 💗
From this episode, you’ll learn:
-What happens when you’re forced to leap—and rise to the occasion
-How to build a thriving creative career after being laid off
-The emotional rewards of embracing discomfort for your dreams
-Why betting on your creativity (even when you're scared) pays off
-The power of staying true to your voice and honoring your art
