YourCreativeChord Nurturing Creativity & Inspiration Podcast

View Details

I talk with Betsy Wurzel about dealing with dementia! Betsy is the founder of #KickAlzheimersAssMovement Facebook Group and the host of the Chatting With Betsy Radio Show.

She was a caregiver for her late husband, Matt, who battled with Alzheimers for 10 years. We dive into how this experience prompted Betsy to rise up as a leader bringing support to caregivers of loved ones dealing with dementia.

Straight talk and practical tips for caregivers and those dealing with dementia here as well as a reminder of alternatives for pre-planning your creative memorial and legacy.

I share a few creative ideas on preparing a creative goodbye. Pandemic2020 and my personal experiences with multiple tragedies motivated me to launch my Creative Memorial Planning Facebook Group, a webinar, and my 2-month Coaching Program, "Explore, Choose, & Plan Your Creative Memorial."

I help 40+ adults explore alternatives to traditional funeral plans with less or zero corporate &/or religious involvement—and map out a personalized, meaningful, creative memorial plan.

HIGHLIGHTS: "I address life and death as one with the understanding that we die as we’ve lived and that we can live more mindfully once we address death."

"I’ve served as an unofficial celebrant for more than 20 memorials —including 3 personal losses."

"We die how we live. Whatever inner life state we build during our lives, we take with us into the next natural chapter of death. Living an inspired life with creative energy stems from living fully—with mindfulness in the present moment as well as having the courage to face the difficult things."

"The ability to manifest my full potential and enjoy life—comes from doing the hard thing—preparing for my end of life NOW as a way to polish my inner humanity. Polishing my inner condition is self-care—that leads to fuel for living an inspired life and brightening the path of others."

"One idea for your creative goodbye ritual is poetry. It could be a poem or collection that you wrote, by a loved one, or from your favorite famous poet. Poetry is a beautiful way to express the richness and joy of creativity within your loving legacy."

"My poem, To Remember You, as my tribute to my late brother, John."

"How to prepare a collection of your legacy documents as a memorable family activity or a creative project of your own."

This episode of YourCreativeChord Podcast features my personal blog on using struggles as stepping stones to happiness and my poem, How To Feel The Sun. My message of encouragement for enduring the pandemic and other stress factors of 2020.

HIGHLIGHTS: "It's easy for any of us to be defeated by our problems. Whether they are big or small doesn't matter. They're our problems and because of that, they can seem tailor-designed to knock us down."

"Regardless of specifics, when faced with difficulty, having the attitude to work toward a solution or win victory, is the first step to creating forward momentum."

"You Get Stronger Through Challenging A Problem"

"If we first work on strengthening the attitude behind our actions, we stand a greater chance of overcoming the problem or reaching a goal. Actions we take are only part of the solution or winning strategy."

Excerpt from my poem, How To Feel The Sun: "In your heart, you have everything you need to break through

You must awaken to the fact that it all depends on you

There, inside, a battle wages between your darkness and light

You must focus all your energy on keeping victory in sight."

"There’s an Einstein quote I love, 'It's not that I'm so smart, it's just that I stay with problems longer.'"

"Problems can function as beneficial to our lives because they push us into the proverbial corner until we learn to strengthen our belief in the unlimited potential within ourselves and humanity."

This episode of YourCreativeChord Podcast features my chat with Florida-based artist, Jean Schienle on:

the mission of artists,

the influence of mentors, and

the power of art to empower others.

HIGHLIGHTS: Talking with Florida artist Jean Schienle about her art and the motivation that drives her to paint reminded me of something my life mentor, Daisaku Ikeda said,

“Culture and the arts create a resonance of shared feeling in people’s hearts and bring them together.”

I asked Jean what motivates her art and she immediately responded with her desire to use art for personal development and the encouragement of others. She practices a philosophy to “be the best I can be and to empower others to reach their potential.”

YourCreativeChord Podcast Episode 2 of 2 With YourCreativeChord Podcast Guest, Empowerment and Productivity Coach, Agnese Rudzate

Switzerland-based Agnese Rudzate is a productivity coach helping female entrepreneurs thrive in their businesses without 24/7 time investment. Her Freedom Business Formula is designed to bring structure so business owners can get rid of overwhelm and constant hustle by working smarter.

Agnese is a firm believer that any business can increase its productivity by implementing her formula. With years of experience as a certified quality manager, she has gained insight, skills, knowledge, and confidence in creating, maintaining and implementing structure, systems, and processes that bring RESULTS.

HIGHLIGHTS:

“You just have to take the first step. You don’t have to see the whole staircase.”

“You don’t climb a mountain in a day. Just take that first step and celebrate it.”

“You are worthy and that’s the end of it.”

On Having A Queen Mindset, “We need to wear that crown and really own it. Don’t be ashamed of it. You deserve it. Straighten your back and wear that crown proudly.”

On Rudzate’s Guided Meditations Album, “I have 10 specific guided meditations with this sound background. These were all created for empowerment, motivation, clarity, and focus.”

“I didn’t just want to do ‘a meditation.’ I didn’t want to just do something that everybody does. I wanted to be very specific in the results and what I’m creating. Something unique.”

On her Video Workshop, “My new video has three questions you should ask yourself to get more effective and focused.”

Rudzate offers a quick productivity tip: “For better decision-making: Really listen to yourself. If you’re struggling, or you’re just not sure, ask yourself,

‘Is this a Hell Yes?’ If it’s not a ‘Hell Yes!’--it’s a ‘Hell No.’”

“This is how you know that things are aligned with your vision, mission, or your goal. If it’s not… you’re not fully in there, you won’t give your full attention, and quality will decrease. If it’s a ‘Hell Yes,’ then go for it.”

Empowering Women With A Queen Mindset & Productivity Tips YourCreativeChord Podcast Episode 1 of 2

With YourCreativeChord Podcast Guest, Empowerment and Productivity Coach, Agnese Rudzate

Agnese Rudzate is a productivity coach helping female entrepreneurs thrive in their businesses without 24/7 time investment. Her Freedom Business Formula is designed to bring structure so business owners can get rid of overwhelm and constant hustle by working smarter.

Agnese is a firm believer that any business can increase its productivity by implementing her formula. With years of experience as a certified quality manager, she has gained insight, skills, knowledge, and confidence in creating, maintaining and implementing structure, systems, and processes that bring RESULTS.

HIGHLIGHTS: Rudzate’s Freedom Business Formula Involves: Mindset, Commitment, Implementation

“Find that weak link, what’s not working. Focus on things that bring results. You increase your profits but decrease your hours because you focus on the right things.”

‘Ask yourself, “Are you being active? Or are you being productive?”

“If this is the only thing I accomplish today, will I be satisfied with my day?” This puts things into perspective.’

Rudzates’s Mentors: Vanessa Ross for her directness, Marie Forleo for her entrepreneurial advice, and Gabrielle Bernstein for her spiritual approach.

“Without Mindset, there can’t be big results because you are your business.”

“When you start to see results, you get empowered. It all really comes down to the mindset.”

“List all your business tasks or processes. What can be delegated, automated, or eliminated?”

“Prioritizing is about what brings results. If it doesn’t, why is it there?”

“Just reach out to your mentor or role model. It doesn’t cost anything. Why wouldn’t you reach out?”

On mentors, “You have to be careful from whom you’re learning because there’s so much noise out there.”

On how to get out of your comfort zone, “It’s just… do it. Keep putting yourself out there and continue doing it.”

Mel Robbins, “Do It Anyway.”

“Celebrate every single day.”

YourCreativeChord Podcast, “How Do We Progress Women Composers? Talk About It! Episode 2” featuring UK Composer Kezia Tomsett. This is Episode 2 of a 2-part interview.

This podcast episode features my chat with young female British composer, Kezia Tomsett. I spoke with Composer Kezia Tomsett of Reading, England just after she’d finished her BA Music degree at The University of Leeds.

I was interested in hearing from her as a recent graduate and upcoming young female composer. I was especially intrigued that she’d done her dissertation on why there aren’t many women film composers.

Jenny Leigh Hodgins interviews Certified Holistic Living and Wellness Expert and Certified Life Coach, Lynnis Woods-Mullins, who is currently sponsoring a trip to Costa Rica from April 29, 2020!

Stay tuned for Episode 3 next Tuesday!

HIGHLIGHTS: “REMEMBER to let go of perfectionism, and that you’re doing your best. I want to do my best. Sometimes you have to learn what that is.” "What's interesting about balance is--when you're in the creative zone--you wanna really protect yourself against distractions. Allow it to flow." "I've also learned to recognize when I'm not in the zone. It's time to push away--go do something else." How African Americans push themselves: "It's ingrained in us as children that you have to be 5, 6 or 7 times as good. You start to apply the need to prove yourself, the need to show that you are worthy, that you have value, that you're trying to do the right thing. It bleeds into everything you do." Why younger women have a perspective advantage on keeping balance better than most women in mid-life. "A little narcissism is healthy. Putting yourself first is not selfish. Put self first so you can be there for others." "It's an integral part of your overall health and wellness to understand that taking care of yourself and loving yourself isn't about being selfish or even narcissist[ic] at all. "It's about loving everyone around you enough to know that you have to take the time for yourself so you can be there and continue to be the role model for so many people who depend on you." The one thing women can do to increase their wellness: "Give yourself permission to breathe. It's okay to take a deep breath."

Discussing women role models, and how women over 40 can nurture creativity and live an inspired life with Certified Holistic Living & Wellness Expert/Certified Life Coach, Lynnis Woods-Mullins.

Woods-Mullins is currently sponsoring a trip to Costa Rica in late April of 2020! Stay tuned for episodes 2 and 3 for more info and our encouraging chat on YourCreativeChord PODCAST!

HIGHLIGHTS:

“Mid-life doesn’t mean no life. Mid-life is an opportunity to thrive and V.I.B.E. (be vibrant, intuitive, beautiful and emerged)!”

“I encourage women to be empowered to move forward with optimism as we age.”

“It is never to late to make a lifestyle change, go after your dreams and increase the joy in your life.”

Woods-Mullins shares how she met and was encouraged multiple times by role model/mentor, Susan Taylor, editor in chief ESSENCE magazine.

Woods-Mullins tells a dramatic story from her college student government days at Spellman College, how Dr. Johnetta B Cole, came to be the first African American woman to head Spellman College, and the astounding accomplishment and impact of the first African American woman. “She was a great communicator. It was hard to say no to her strength, confidence and veracity.”

We also discuss the debt of gratitude we owe our mothers and ancestors. Woods-Mullins shares the achievements of her mother, from her array of talents to her career as a school district administrator.

"How To Transform Your Anxiety Through Awareness 2" is part 2 of 2 YourCreativeChord Podcast episodes with my guest, Transformation Success Coach, Tiffeny Town!

After a long career in the financial and accounting industry, Tiffeny was constantly seeking her life's purpose with a focus on how to help others. She’s followed many paths—from network marketing, career coaching, and the medical field. She returned to the recurring theme of coaching, mentoring and inspiring other women, specifically with removing emotional and mindset blocks so women could create the life desired.

Tiffeny’s story is an inspiration itself, and—in my mind—establishes her credential for turning her personal struggles into an altruistic mission. She uses her life experiences of being an adult child of an addict/alcoholic, overcoming abusive relationships, surviving financial hardships and bankruptcy, divorce, infertility, and having the courage to launch her business —as a foundation of her coaching practice.

She’s done her share of working things out internally with her Life Coach. She’s gotten “serious about stepping into my own power and serving my purpose.”

HIGHLIGHTS:

How to create awareness by sitting still with yourself, breathing deeply, and thinking about the problem.

Finding the root of your anxiety or negative belief to reframe it.

Asking yourself questions and taking time to listen to yourself.

The most important thing we can do for ourselves on a regular basis to ensure we maintain the balance of body, mind, and spirit.

The impact of daily gratitude practice and why gratitude is not hard.

Setting your intent for the day with a solid gratitude practice.

Feeling the emotion of your gratitude.

What we can do every day to stay positive and focused on the present and not succumb to our past, negative self-talk and beliefs.

"How To Transform Your Anxiety Through Awareness 1" is part 1 of 2 YourCreativeChord Podcast episodes with my guest, Transformation Success Coach, Tiffeny Town!

After a long career in the financial and accounting industry, Tiffeny was constantly seeking her life's purpose with a focus on how to help others. She’s followed many paths—from network marketing, career coaching, and the medical field. She gravitated back to the recurring theme of coaching, mentoring and inspiring other women, specifically with removing emotional and mindset blocks so women could create the life desired.

Tiffeny’s story is an inspiration itself, and—in my mind—establishes her credential for turning her personal struggles into an altruistic mission. She uses her life experiences of being an adult child of an addict/alcoholic, overcoming abusive relationships, surviving financial hardships and bankruptcy, divorce, infertility, and having the courage to launch her business —as a foundation of her coaching practice.

She’s done her share of working things out internally with her Life Coach. She’s gotten “serious about stepping into my own power and serving my purpose.”

HIGHLIGHTS:

How purpose defines her mentors. What her 10 year Tai Chi practice teaches about success mindset. “Mindset is key to all success.” “We are all made for something more and our past should not define who we choose be. Awareness and taking action are the only way to move forward.” Using awareness to stay present and keep focus when facing anxiety. “You can’t make changes or know where you’re headed without practicing awareness.” The huge role of gratitude in mind, body, spirit balance.

"You Are Enough Just As You Are!" YourCreativeChord Podcast episode 2 (Part 2 of 2) features my conversation with my guest, Dr. Tara Sanderson, a “Licensed Psychologist, Author, and Clinical Supervisor in Oregon.” Dr. Sanderson has been “helping people learn the skills to live their best lives” for more than 20 years.

Our conversation is relevant for those who struggle with perfectionism, overachieving, anxiety, depression, and “the inner critic.”

Sanderson breaks down the process for writing, editing, and publishing her book, including why she opted for hybrid publishing.

“Through international choices, you are enough just as you are.”

“Be non-judgmental, on purpose, and fully present.”

“This juxtaposition of feeling like what you are going through, who you are, and how you navigate the world is too much. And yet you’re not enough at the same time.”

“It’s not because of intentional choices or because you’re working really hard that you’re enough. You take off all those chains and those shackles of ‘too much-ness’ and ‘not enough-ness’ by just feeling confident and comfortable with the decisions you are making. You are enough.”

“The Mindfulness ‘SOBER’ tool = Stop. Observe. Breathe. Examine Options. Respond.”

“Take time before your decision, pause your auto-pilot to match your decision with your values.”

This is a special International Women's Day episode made for Resonance FM. It features excerpts from my interviews with 4 creative women for YourCreativeChord Podcast.

In this special podcast, these creative women share their unique approaches to creativity.

They discuss: 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.

Listen to the joyful passion of these women as 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.

These incredibly talented women were all featured in previous episodes* for YourCreativeChord Podcast. See the show notes below for specific links to those full episodes.

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:
