- Informative & Empowering!
As a novice artist that wants to explore so many different mediums with so little time, (yearning for retirement!!) Sam has helped me slow down and simplify my practice. I adore the 3 dilemmas format; I find them so helpful! Sending good vibes from the U.S.

I love Sam’s work on IG and what a delight to find I can listen in my daily dog walk now! I wish there were a shelf full of past sessions to savor. Wonderful advice and support from a teaching and experienced perspective. You’re a busy lady to keep us followers chasing along with you Sam! (hello darling Marple🤎)

I've been following Sam on Instagram for many years. I've taken her workshops and have been in creative coaching sessions with her for a couple of years. She never feeds you any fluff and always gives you straightforward feedback. This podcast is no different. Love it, Sam!
Apple Podcasts5shastaalexanderUnited States3 months ago - Wonderfully supportive and practical advice for artists at any stage.
I loved listening to this. Sam is an experienced artist and coach, and gives such helpful and practical advice for dilemmas that arise when you’re a maker. I like how the real life scenarios are very relatable to all artists. Sam offers a non judgemental and supportive way of reframing how we might think about our own work (eg ‘not good enough’) and brings you back to why you want to make art in the first place. We can all learn so much from Sam, and I can’t wait to hear the rest of the series.
