What does it mean to live a rich creative life? After living through a pandemic and innumerable disasters over the past few years, many of us are yearning for deeper connections to our people, practice, and purpose. Living a life that lights us up requires us to be proactive—but what does this look like on a practical level? And what do we do when the space between where we are now and where we want to be looks more like a canyon than a gap?
In this conversation-style webinar, Lillie Brown will be joined by the enigmatic Dr. Kate Smith to explore the concept of a rich creative life. Together, they’ll delve into the tenets of a rich creative life; Kate’s golden Rule of Three, what it means to be an embodied creator, how to sustain change in our lives, and the potency of deep self-knowledge.
If you want to create, play, and live a meaningful life, this conversation is for you.
