Welcome to Miles to Zen, where creativity meets curiosity, presence, and possibility.
In this first episode of a new series focusing on creativity, we are diving in to the heart of it. Not as a talent or performance, but as a deeply human way of connecting to joy, intuition, and your most authentic self.
I’ll talk about my creative sabbatical, and why I believe everyone is creative (yes, even you). We’ll bust some tired myths, revisit our creative origin stories, and explore the soul-deep value of making something just because.
No audience required. No pressure to be perfect. Just presence, curiosity, and creative freedom.
Topics in this series include:
- Creativity and healing
- The power of inner child play
- Fluid art and photography as portals to connection
- Creative resistance and professional value
- And so much more
