A gentle wellness journal for artists, loosely inspired by The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron.

In this episode, we explore the tender, often tricky feelings that surface at the start of a new year- rebuilding self-trust, learning how to recognise our gut feeling, and sitting with the vulnerability of beginning new projects when certainty feels far away. Martha is moving through a season of slowing down, while Damaris is in a period of creative crunch as deadlines approach. Together, they reflect on how to honour the seasonality of their practices, making space for both rest and momentum without guilt.

As The Healthy Artist turns one, Martha shares a gentle New Year reflection on creative care, grounding practices, and what the next chapter will look like. This short episode touches on finding a softer rhythm, setting values-led boundaries, working within limits, and staying connected to your creative practice without rushing towards outcomes. A quiet invitation to begin the year with care.

In this episode, we sit down with Claudia Kennaugh, professional artist coach and advisor, to explore her mission to empower artists with clarity, confidence, and sustainable creative practice. Claudia shares the most common challenges artists face today, from finding an authentic artist voice, to the essential theme of slowness- why it matters, how it supports creativity, and how artists can invite more space for it in their creative careers.

We also talked about our shared passion project: the 6-month mentorship with The Healthy Artist. After a hugely positive response, we’ve now opened 5 new slots for the cohort beginning February.
