My 1st TV interview!

Back in November I was approached by the oh so witty, supportive & straight shooting Elizabeth Cassidy of Coaching for the Creative Soul about being a featured artist on mylitv.com.  She thought my “story” (my italics) would be interesting and inspiring for people to hear & see.  “Wow, yes, sure, thank you” stumbled off my tongue yet my insides were screaming no effing way! S c a r y stuff! Conflicted for sure but I knew this was a great opportunity to share my work – after all, this is the kind of thing us artists seek!

I have to admit it wasn’t easy. I was left feeling exposed, vulnerable & swirling with humiliation.  BECAUSE…

I’d come face to face with this profound paradox: I really want to be heard YET I’m so afraid of using my voice. Exhale. More about that in a future post. For now I’d rather focus on how appreciative I feel that this whole thing came about. Thank you Elizabeth, Natalie, Waldo & Joe. For better or worse, I’m proud that I pushed through.

Would love to hear from you. I’d also love if you wanted to subscribe to this journal.
