Back to Episodes👁️🗨️ Creative Business as a World-Building Practice — with Ayana Zaire Cotton
Description
“We don’t have to give up the wild, “non-marketable” parts of our practice in order to sustain them.”
This week, I am thrilled to be joined by anti-disciplinary artist, writer, and facilitator for the worldbuilders, Ayana Zaire Cotton of Seeda School.
In this spiralic conversation, Ayana guides us in how to tap into our zone of desire and design creative offers for new worlds in the now.
Tune in to hear about:
- World-building as a Black feminist practice
- Why “niching down” is a colonial technology (& how we can refuse to do it)
- The moments when discipline melts into devotion
- How to find the places where your curiosity rivals your fear
