After a long pause, I’m returning with conversations about what creativity is actually for. Not just how to grow faster or sell more, but why making matters in the first place.

In this episode, I sit down with UK textile artist and founder of No Rules Textile Society, Jayne Emerson. We talk about building a creative business without hustle, choosing depth over scale and creating something sustainable instead of chasing constant expansion.

Jayne shares how she moved from quietly selling textile samples to major fashion houses to openly teaching her methods and building a membership rooted in permission and play. We talk about “following the fizz,” turning perceived flaws into strengths, and why your art practice has to become non-negotiable if you want your business to feel aligned.

If you’re an artist or creative educator who wants a business that supports your life instead of consuming it, this episode will resonate.

In this episode, I’m sharing what it really looks like to build a creative business that supports your whole life and not just your bottom line. After a reset in the mountains and a break from the constant pressure to perform, I’m sharing some honest reflections on what’s shifting in my business, why I’ve restructured Build It Remarkable as a full-year experience, and what comes next.

We’ll talk about the emotional weight of the world right now and how artists and educators can show up with intention, creativity, and impact even when things feel heavy. I share the Toni Morrison quote that keeps me grounded, and a beautiful voice message from artist @ardithgoodwin that reminds us exactly why we do this work.

I also give you a fly-on-the-wall look at conversations from inside my programs this month, including a brilliant marketing breakthrough to a member who hit her beta launch goal and found her voice again. You’ll hear my best advice for both beginners and seasoned creators, and I’ll walk you through exactly what to focus on right now to build momentum without burning out or abandoning your values.

What does it really take to be a good art teacher? In this episode, I’m talking with Susan Yates about what it means to teach from lived experience rather than performative expertise. Susan and I have a heart to heart over the experience of being an instructor and being the student again. This is an amazing discussion we haven't really had on the podcast before.

We talk about the pressures to have it all figured out, why artists often feel like frauds when they step into the role of teacher, what makes a great video lesson and how important it is to reconnect with your own creativity to keep your cup full. We both agree that teaching in-person makes you better overall as an art instructor and talk about specific lessons we've learned from our students over the years. This conversation is honest, gentle, and full of the reminders we all need: your art matters, your practice is valid, and the best teaching starts with being true to yourself.

If you’re a course creator, art educator, or thinking about stepping into teaching someday, this one will speak right to your heart.

In this “Work in Progress” episode, I share my behind-the-scenes updates about life and business, including a powerful experience I had while taking an in-person workshop with other creative women. I opens up about balancing my roles as an artist and creative business coach, the lessons I'm bringing back to my community, and why I now believe that nurturing your own creativity matters as much as building your business.

I also dive into a practical, eye-opening discussion on pricing by unpacking the key questions to ask before you price an offer, including its purpose, audience, and sales strategy. You’ll hear real insights from conversations inside my coaching programs about AI, creative inspiration, business models, and how to make aligned decisions as you grow. This is a grounded, encouraging episode for anyone building an art course business and a reminder that you can design success on your own terms.

In this special episode, I reunite with the original members of The League, my mastermind for art course creators, to reflect on what they’ve built over the past two to three years. You’ll hear real stories of growth, creativity, and success from artists like Drew Steinbrecher, Brooke (BB) Henry, Cat Rains, Delight Rogers, and Roben-Marie Smith; each of whom has followed their own path while staying grounded in focus, dedication, and heart.

Together, we explore what success really looks like, what it takes to build a thriving creative business, and how focusing on one clear offer (the “Rule of One”) can lead to big, meaningful results. This episode is packed with wisdom, inspiration, and proof that artists helping artists creates a ripple effect that transforms lives. Whether you’re just starting out or ready to scale, you’ll walk away with motivation to keep going and a reminder that the work you’re doing matters.

This episode is a masterclass in real talk and resilience. I'm dismantling excuses, breaking down fear, and grounding creativity in both soul and strategy. If you're feeling stuck, scattered, or unsure if your art or course is worth sharing then tune in for the real reasons creatives stay stuck. If self-doubt, comparison, or not knowing where to start is holding you back, this is the clarity you didn’t know you needed. I’m sharing results from my recent survey, breaking down the four most common excuses, and giving you grounded, soulful perspective on how to move forward - one aligned step at a time.
