Creativity Is: Passionate, Laughter & Difficult Conversations with Intisar Seraaj and Mitch Del Monico.

Where there is laughter, creativity also exists. 

Creativity is more than just the art on your wall. It’s also what we tap into as we maneuver difficult conversations. 

So then what is Passion? → Creativity’s best friend. 

...And that’s just the tip of the iceberg according to this week’s guests: Intisar Seraaj and Mitch Del Monico! These phenomenal return guests get super deep each time they’re with us. 

In this episode, Intisar and Mitch continue helping us by exploring the question: “What does it mean to be a Creative?”

New Year. Who are you?

Do our behaviors influence our identity? Or does our identity influence our behavior?  

And how do thoughts and feelings play into the mix? 

Here’s what we can say for sure - self-awareness is powerful.

As we begin this new year, I invite you to start with this question: who are you? 

What are the ideals you are going to live by this year? 

When you’re stressed, your moral compass is challenged, and your energy is low, what ethos is going to sustain you? 

On this week’s episode, we walk through specifically designed exercises that are intended to help you create a vision for who you want to be. 

We’ll start by constructing the mottos and ideals that make up your best self. 

For example, here are three of my ethos I live by:

Courage Over Fear. 

Creativity Over Regurgitation. 

Consistency Over Perfection.

Don’t let this be one of those things you bookmark and never return to. 

Allow yourself the gift of intention today. 

It will provide the foundation for you to cultivate your best self. 

Let’s do this. 

Hit play.

Birthday Episode

My birthday is in 3 days, and each year I like to celebrate with a special birthday episode. This year I wanted to share the episode I shared on my 30th birthday.

I know a lot of us right now are going through a few challenges and obstacles and adversity, and my 30th birthday episode was one of the most vulnerable episodes I put out because it really shares the journey I’ve been on. And that is why I’d like to share it with you as a replay this week.

One of my birthday rituals is to celebrate one thing I love about myself, for every year of my life.  Which means, this year I'm sharing 30 self-love affirmations :). 

Each of my previous birthdays reflects where I was during that point in my life.  On my 18th birthday, one group of my friends (high on coke and huffing fumes) pulled knives on another group of my friends and tried to stab them.  On my 20th birthday, I was drinking a liter of whiskey almost everyday.  Or the birthday I had to tell my dad I've been arrested and am in serious trouble. 

My intention is to give closure to my 20's and step forward boldly into my 30's by sharing this part of my story.  Recording this has been one of the most vulnerable and freeing experiences of my life.  I am honored to have you be a part of it. 

When I reviewed the episode I thought I would just delete it because it was such a vulnerable share. But I decided that I would lead with courage and put it out there. So I hope that in some way that if you’re going through something right now that it can be an example that your worst days can be your best days.

Enjoy this week's episode, as I share with you my birthday stories and celebrate 30 self-love affirmations!

Celebrating Failure

On this week’s episode, we explore ways through which we can celebrate failure. When we are taking risks, envisioning, creating change, and putting ourselves out there, creating a healthy relationship with failure is really important. When we try something new or strive to live our best life, we are inevitably setting ourselves up to experience moments where we stumble or fall short, and the mindset we have in those moments will influence how we move forward.

This week’s episode is a workshop that walks us through how we can create a healthy relationship with failure. Together, we break down what we have been taught failure means, and then create our own fresh definition.

Celebrate Failure is Day 5 of a 7-day workshop series that I have created.
