Creative Genius 93 - From Manufactured Chaos to Soft Living: Navigating the Rise of the Matriarchy with Gina Luker (Shabby Creek Cottage)
A FEW THINGS WE TALKED ABOUT
Why joy is not frivolous—it’s essential.
How to observe chaos without absorbing it
Alchemizing anger into action
Grounding techniques to pull you back to yourself (barefoot walks, simple rituals)
Why online friendships and community can be just as real—and healing—as in-person ones
How feminine energy can help rebalance a world spinning off its axis
What it actually looks like to embrace your authentic self in a world that often shames it
Why creativity is your most reliable compass during uncertain times
Letting go of the pressure to save the world while still lending a hand
The truth about money and how it amplifies who you already are
