Send us Fan MailYou can be outwardly successful, capable, and still feel like something essential is missing — often because a dream was quietly set aside along the way.In this episode, I’m joined by Emily Pattullo — creative coach, author, and musician — who returned to music after 25 years and released her debut single at 52.We explore what really keeps people stuck when it comes to creative confidence and personal growth: fear of judgement, conditioning that encourages us to stay small, and the inner stories we repeat that make us believe it’s “too late.”Emily shares her Twelve Creative Steps to a Fulfilling Life — a simple but powerful journalling process designed to help you move from where you are now toward the life you actually want. We talk about how writing and drawing can help bypass overthinking, how breathwork can regulate the nervous system, and why reconnecting with childhood joy can reveal deeper purpose.We also explore creativity in the age of AI, and why human intuition, expression, and discernment matter more than ever in a noisy digital world.If you’ve been telling yourself your time has passed, this conversation offers a different perspective — one rooted in possibility, creativity, and courage.Website: 12creativesteps.comWebsite: 12creativesteps.comInstagram: emilypattullo_FB: Emily Pattullo Creates12 Creative Steps to a Fulfilling Life book can be found on online as a beautiful hardback book at amazon and other book sites, or downloaded as a PDF from Emily’s website.
