The Work of Art Coaching Podcast: Recent Episodes
Lynn Downey
At The Work of Art Coaching Podcast, YOU are the Work of Art.
By sharing empowering, authentic, and gosh darn funny conversations with & for actors and artists, we hope to create community on the journey of the creative life. With insights from life coaching, cognitive behavioral therapy, spiritual and wisdom traditions, The Work of Art Coaching Podcast hopes to equip and inspire artists to become the solution you've been waiting for as you create the relationship you've always wanted with the business, your craft, and yourself.
During our TEAM BRAVE episodes, we talk with working actors, artist, and creatives asking: "What does it feel like to be brave?"
Hosted by Lynn Downey Braswell, actress, writer/director/producer, and founder of Work of Art Coaching. workofartcoaching.com, theworkofartcoaching@gmail.com
We can't wait to have you on the team! Whoot!
Through a story about magical found furniture, Lynn shares how there's probably a reason behind why something isn't working, be it physical, emotional or craft related. When we can slow down, release judgement, and give ourselves permission to get curious, we can usually discover a logical reason behind what's keeping us stuck. In doing so we can begin the process of moving forward toward a solution.

Lynn shares her thoughts on the right to grieve and be sad about what doesn't work out the way we want it to, while also making sure we are not taking it out on ourselves.

Lynn offers a pre-audition vocal warm up to get you grounded, prepared and ready to share your unique voice (both actual and metaphorical) in your self tape or audition.
Lynn and Desean talk determination, Desean's journey to and through the prestigious Juilliard school, the importance of continued learning and how that translates to teaching. They discuss Desean's take on Stanley in "Streetcar," creating new theatre including the powerful "Shotgun Medley" through Collaborative Artist's Bloc theatre company in Los Angeles, and how creating art can be activism, particularly, the Black Lives Matter movement. We hope you are encouraged to be you and JUST DO THE THING!
They also learn that probably don't record a podcast DURING construction, but ya know, it's all about learning anyway!!!
Created by Brooke Castillo of The Life Coach School, The Model is a culmination of thought from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and self-help teachers.
I think of it like an algebra problem to solve for X, the Thought that is in charge of your feelings actions and results. That's why I call it the Math behind Manifesting. This is just a jumping off point to get you intrigued!
The Model Defined:
Circumstance: Anything that’s on the outside of you. Anything you can’t control. Neutral. The facts of the situation. Could be proven in court. 50 people could agree. No adjectives, no opinions. (Nouns go here: people, places and things. This includes other people’s feelings, actions, words.)
Thought: A sentence in your brain. Your perspective, opinion, point of view on the circumstance.
Feeling: A vibration in your body. Emotion. Harmless.
Action: Behaviors that can be perceived on the outside. Included avoidance actions and inaction.
Results: What you get from the combination of your actions, feelings, and thoughts. Neutral. Factual. Always proves the thought right.
