https://Art2Life.com - Are you able to truly integrate joy and passion into your daily routine? 

My guest this week is Martha Beck, Harvard-trained sociologist and acclaimed life coach, who explores how we can build the things we love into our daily lives and create an ecosystem where happiness becomes the foundation of success.

We discuss strategies for overcoming anxiety through kind internal self-talk, exploring creativity to alleviate stress, and how you can embrace the flow state to uncover deeper life purposes. Martha also gives us a sneak peek into her upcoming book, "Beyond Anxiety," coming out this month.

You'll learn about left-brain and right-brain thinking, the significance of presence and playfulness in art, and a few practical techniques for shifting from anxiety toward integrity. So, tune in for an enlightening conversation that promises to inspire your artistic journey and enrich your life.

Boysober

Boysober

Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
