Episode Details

This is a special International Women's Day episode made for Resonance FM. It features excerpts from my interviews with 4 creative women for Your Creative Chord Podcast. These creative women share: 

their unique approaches to creativity

the crucial rejuvenation of 'time on the shelf,'

what we can do to progress opportunities for more women, 

how art expresses the feminine power of a fully free woman, and 

how creative works tell our unique stories. 

They share their journeys to establish themselves as creators, despite oppression, mental wellness struggles, few to zero role models, and starting their careers based on sheer gumption.

I'd like to thank each of my guests for sharing their creativity with my audience and for continuing to shine their artistry for the world:
