Learning How to Flex Your Creativity Through Intentional Self-Discovery Practices With Zoë Collins

Margo is joined by the very serious, but never solemn, creative ball of energy, Zoë Collins. Zoë believes that color is not to be wrestled with, but spun like magic, that art cures the troubled soul and that taxes are a privilege, not a curse. Her work has been described as colorful, powerful, fresh, quirky, witty and mad. She writes, draws, paints, prints, collages and teaches and believes that peace comes from within, from working out who you are and being gentle with your perceived failings. She loves showing people how to be creative, both in person and online and is a firm believer that creativity is a muscle we are all capable of flexing.   Margo and Zoe discuss: The common feeling of loss or lack of purpose when you don't have a plan or path The strong desire or wanting to be good at everything you do Why recognition is important to her and how she realized this Creativity as a muscle Problem solving as a form of creativity What she's learned through therapy, meditation, and other intentional practices How to find your authenticity advice for tapping into your own creativity Self-discovery and her latest project, You: Artfull Self-Discovery   Zoë currently lives in Brisbane, Australia, with her husband, two kids, favorite girl dog, and a large elderly cat.    Mentioned in this episode: What Happened to You?: Conversations on Trauma, Resilience, and Healing by Oprah Winfrey and Dr. Bruce D.
