To say I'm excited about sharing today's guest with you would be an UNDERSTATEMENT. From the moment we connected, it was clear to me that I'd met a kindred soul. In fact, I knew it when I read her most recent book, which t his podcast episode is named after.
Of course I'm talking about the wonderful, generous and uber-creative Holly Ringland.
Holly Ringland is the author of two internationally best-selling and multi-award-winning novels, The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart and The Seven Skins of Esther Wilding, one nationally bestselling work of non-fiction, The House that Joy Built, and she writes a beloved and bestselling Substack, The Joy Rise, on the intersection of creativity and connection.
Her books have sold over 500,000 copies and have been published in over 30 international territories.
In 2021, Holly made her TV debut co-hosting the ABC TV factual series Back to Nature which aired in prime time and to critical acclaim.
In 2023, The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart was adapted for an award-winning seven-part series starring Sigourney Weaver.
This episode broke me open and I know it’s going to do the same to you. We traverse a LOT of territory here, from Holly’s books and writing process, to the magic and mystery of the creative process. Being in Holly’s presence is like being in the company of an old friend, so settle in, get ready to take notes and enjoy this conversation with the bighearted Holly Ringland.
If this episode was your cup of tea, you need to get on board with The Creative Urge.
