Have you ever found yourself standing at a crossroad, torn between abandoning your creative goals or sacrificing your well-being in the pursuit of achievement?
Making room for both ambition and self-care is a delicate art. In this coaching episode, we delve into the nurture/structure polarity, untangling the intricacies of tending to both emotion and ambition on your creative path. We navigate the delicate duality of being ambitious while respecting our emotional needs—a journey that oscillates between building and feeling.
In a world that often pushes us to go to extremes, we talk about the difficulties of thinking in all-or-nothing ways. Let's work together to find simple ways to support your ambition and take care of your feelings. We'll free ourselves from unhelpful ideas and systems that hold back our creativity.
About me
Pascale Côté is a creativity guide, artist, and writer who helps creatives meet, understand, and express themselves by guiding them to work *with* their (creative, complex, unconventional) nature instead of against it. She helps artists, visionaries, disruptors and earth stewards break free from the vortex of overthinking and move forward with their bold, rebellious ideas. Her work challenges conventional norms, inviting creatives to explore what’s possible when they release outdated narratives and embrace their true, authentic expression. Pascale believes that art is a powerful vehicle for both individual and collective change when it’s grounded in truth—created outside the rigid systems that stifle our creative spirit.
About the podcast
Creative minds are the architects of a new world, and their art holds the keys to reimagining our reality. The challenge is, creative minds often spend just as much time crafting self-limiting narratives as they do creating their art. Dear Creative Mind is a space for creative liberation—a pathway out of the cycle of overthinking, burnout, and stagnation. This podcast is for artists & creative entrepreneurs where Pascale, creativity guide, shares grounding meditations, gentle coaching guidance and heartfelt conversations with inspiring artists. The podcast explores the real challenges that come with being creative—overthinking, self-doubt, burnout—and how to navigate them while staying true to our vision.
