• ICP 320 Meditate

  Managing stress, staying focused, and keeping our emotional well-being in check are crucial when you're in the creative field. In this short episode, I dive into my personal journey with meditation and why I think it's a game-changer for many creatives. I share with you three big benefits of meditating regularly. You'll hear how I started my meditation journey back in 2007 with a little gem called Meditation for Dummies by Stephen Bodian. And I also recommend checking out Hurry Up and Meditate by David Michie, if you struggle to make time for meditation. The key here is consistency: even just a few minutes each day can make a huge difference. I'd love to hear about your meditation experiences too so feel free to share your stories and tips by dropping me an email at [email protected] Find out more at: www.inspirationalcreatives.com/podcast

• ICP 318 Ten Years of Inspirational Creatives and Making Better Choices For The Future

  Today I celebrate 10 years of the Inspirational Creatives podcast. Launched on 24th November 2014, I reflect briefly on my journey of podcasting so far with some personal anecdotes. This episode also celebrates the launch of part two of a two-part series on 33 ways to live a more prosperous and creative life. The topic for this episode is about making more conscious choices: ones that serve a better version of you. I talk about how we can make more conscious choices around money, and what we choose to consume. I also share some of my personal choices, over the last 8 years, for example, to eat less meat, which is #18 out of the 33 ways. Hear how I gained inspiration from my wife, Sandra, and William Whitecloud, which has led to a daily ritual of making conscious choices from the moment I wake up.
