Interview Series: Careers in Creativity
In 2020, I had the privilege to interview two visual artists and an author who were very generous with their time and wisdom in sharing about their career paths and reflections on what it means to live a creative life. I hosted these conversations not as a psychotherapist but as a coach supporting people navigating creative careers and the practicalities of moving this type of work forward. In therapy, I see that expressive arts including writing and visual arts can be an important part of healing and living with joy and vitality. I share these interviews for all who may benefit from hearing the stories of the inspiration and practical experiences behind these three creative careers.
