  • So glad that I came across this pod!

    I have only listened to a couple episodes so far, but I love Chef Carla’s topics so much! My best creativity happens when I slow down, contemplate, and have space in my mind. She keeps reminding us of that 🧡

  • pro-ai

    pro-ai content is extraordinarily depressing as a creative. it steals our work, spits it back out without credit, and is almost always incorrect. feels so out of sync with who your audience is.

  • 💎💎💎

    Creativity is a core value for me and my biz and it’s hard to find a podcast centered around just that! And not only catering to the art space. Every single person is creative, and can strengthen their creativity to integrate throughout so many areas of their life. So many amazing topics and guests here to help guide you!

  • Always Learning From Other Woman

    I’m glad that I was introduced to Carla’s podcast. Listening to other woman who are working in their own industries or businesses has really helped me become more self aware of my own self deprecating or self sabotaging behaviors and bring more attention to what needs to change. I’ve learned so much!
