217. Revisiting The Artist's Way with Mallory Dowd

How does artmaking connect us with greater intelligence?

How does one overcome creative blocks?

What is the role of paying attention in the collective healing?

In this fireside chat, intuitive tarot reader and therapist Mallory Dowd joined me to talk about The Artist’s Way, a text written by Julia Cameron that we both love and revisit often.

We discussed:

🎨 The connection between artmaking and mysticism

🎨 The vulnerability of giving yourself space to experience creative joy – specifically through the artist dates practice that Julia Cameron prescribed in this text

🎨 Our favorite quotes from the text

🎨 The power of truly paying attention
