A beautiful thing about working behind the curtain of a gatekept industry, is being the one who can later pull this curtain back for others who have been denied entry. In today’s episode, Chelene draws from her experience working in publishing and how it’s helped her turn industry blindspots into a path of joyful living for creatives.

Reflecting on Chelene’s project pillars, redefining success, and reshaping of the language behind the word “gatekeeping”, this episode is here to plant the seeds for mindset shifts around your place in this creative world and how you can make it your own.

Shoutout to House of Anansi, Canada’s leading independent publisher for creating such a positive experience for Chelene in her upcoming guided journal for writers, Safekeeping, you can pre-order today.
