You don't have to see the whole staircase, just the next step.

Sarah Spencer takes us on a journey of transformation, from corporate employee to artist, radio host, and community activist while navigating major life transitions and personal growth.• Moving from Canada to Chicago represents a complete life reset• Transitioning from property appraiser to artist required sitting with uncomfortable feelings of identity loss• Meeting her husband at Burning Man led to love, marriage, and eventually motherhood• Postpartum anxiety pushed her toward therapy, which became a transformative force• Overcoming extreme fear of public speaking by trying stand-up comedy• Using privilege for community good rather than feeling guilt• Creating art as therapy during emotionally challenging times• Finding your authentic voice and accepting that not everyone will appreciate it• Learning to face fears rather than avoid them—bravery isn't absence of fear but acting despite it• Developing the mantra: "I am a spirit having a human experience"Find Sarah's art on Instagram @IOtheAlien and join her for the upcoming Picture This VIP Club at CraftyMonkies starting in June 2025.Want to reach out?
