The Creative Life in Motion: Becoming (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode we continue with the subject of change and focus on becoming. Catherine reads Alice Oswald’s poem “Flies” and we discuss cut endings. Jessica gives us a sneak preview of her second novel Bernice and the Wild Waters which asks the question: how do we navigate the storms of our lives? We explore being a conduit for the creative process and the importance of paying attention.
The Creative Life in Motion: Change & Creativity (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In the first episode of Season 6, we catch up, converse and reconnect, about synchronicity, transformation and change. Jessica reads Mary Oliver's poem “The Summer Day” and we exchange ideas on how the poem (just) works on so many levels. Catherine shares “I Always Knew You Were a Hummingbird” from Moon Writing , her recently published collaboration with Robert Frede Kenter (art by Robert, poems by Catherine). We are excited to be back after a two year “sabbatical.”
