Creativity, Writing and Politics with journalist Nancy Colasurdo

Welcome to Twice 5 Miles Radio! I'm your host, James Navé, and today; I'm thrilled to have Nancy Colasurdo as my guest. Nancy is an acclaimed journalist, blogger, author, life coach, and creativity workshop facilitator. I first met Nancy at The Artist's Way Creativity Camp, which Julia Cameron and I produced in Taos during the late 90s and early 2000s. Since then, we've remained in touch. Over her 35-year career, Nancy has contributed to some of the most respected publications, including FoxBusiness.com, CNBC.com, Entrepreneur.com, Ladies' Home Journal, and Fortune.com. She has an incredible ability to connect with people and bring their stories to life, making her a captivating journalist and writer. In 2016, Nancy published her memoir, "Alive in the Sunshine," detailing her professional and spiritual journey. During our conversation, we dive into the art of teaching creativity, reflecting on our shared experiences at The Artist's Way camp. Nancy talks about her journey from being a sports writer/columnist at The Trenton Times to becoming a certified coach and a leader in the journalism field. We discuss her approach to coaching and how her experience in athletics has given her a unique perspective on motivation and success. As we catch up, we touch on some thought-provoking topics, exploring how liberals and conservatives can engage in meaningful dialogue despite differing viewpoints. Nancy's balanced approach to these discussions makes for a compelling listen, challenging us to be open to new ideas while respecting differing opinions. Enjoy the show!
