Money, Magic and Creativity with Cecily Sailer

Welcome back to the show!In this episode, my guest Cecily Sailer and I dive into the intersections of creativity, healing, resilience… and money!We explore the societal conditioning that makes so many of us believe we’re "not creative," the fears of being a "starving artist," and how capitalism warps our relationship with creativity. We also unpack how tarot can be a powerful tool for self-discovery, trauma healing, and making powerful money moves, revealing hidden patterns around abundance and scarcity. If you’ve ever struggled with accessing your creative power, feared that pursuing creativity means sacrificing financial stability, or wondered how to stay authentic in business while resisting harmful systems, this conversation will leave you feeling inspired and empowered.  Key Episode Takeaways:1. Creativity is not just for artists– Many of us were taught that creativity is frivolous or reserved for the "gifted," but it's actually essential for survival, healing, and resilience.  2. Why unlearning childhood and societal conditioning around creativity can help you to reconnect with authentic self-expression.  3. Using Tarot as a mirror for abundance & money blocks – Tarot can reveal subconscious beliefs about money, power, and self-worth, helping creatives and entrepreneurs shift their financial mindset.  4. How creativity & business profit can coexist – Thriving artists and creators prove that you don’t have to sacrifice authenticity for financial success—you can create and still be prosperous.  5. Staying creative in a capitalist world requires care and connection – Balancing business, grief, and creativity means regulating the nervous system, practicing self-care, and rejecting toxic productivity.  Connect with Cecily:Cecily Sailer is a creativity coach, writer, and Tarot reader who supports and mentors Creative Spirits to develop a more mystical and spiritual relationship with their creativity, themselves, and the movement of life.
