“I am here to help people get their power back. I don’t want people’s power.”
Whether you know it or not, you have immense creative and personal power. But in a society that often tries to take that power away—or tells you that you should give your power to a "guru"—it’s easy to feel invisible in your own life.
In this video, I explore why creativity is actually the fastest path back to yourself. While traditional tools in psychology and psychotherapy are valuable for understanding our past, messy and joyful creativity focuses on your aliveness in the present. This channel is a sanctuary for those who want to reclaim their agency without the pressure of productivity or performance.
My Promise to You:
• 🤦🏻♂️ I’ll never tell you that you are "broken" or need to be "optimized".
• 🤷🏻♂️ I won’t ask you to give your power to a "guru" or follow a rigid system.
• 😁 I will never prioritize a "crush it" mentality over your need for a safe haven.
What we’re exploring in this episode:
• The Power Illusion: Why "power-over" is usually an illusion and how to tap into "power-with" instead.
• The Political is Personal: Navigating a world where authoritarianism and "guru culture" try to claim your agency.
• Creativity as Self-Relationship: Why playing with colors or words is a radical act of reclaiming your own decisions.
• Reclaiming Your Aliveness: How to use your creative power to make a difference in your community.
