Wellbeing Is Wanting to Be Remembered

Wellbeing Is Wanting to Be Remembered

As we wrap up our mini-series on the topic of creativity, Rebecca reflects on the lessons shared by her guests. More than anything, there seems to be something in the allowing of creativity - and the openness to receive it - that brings us into contact with the beauty and mystery that is ours to create.  As an expression of her creativity, Rebecca shares a poem about the goodness and the wellbeing that is here for all of us - and that wishes the best for all of us - as we learn our way into the beauty of who we are together.  Host: Rebecca Paradiso de Sayu Original Music: Mapumba Cilombo Producers: Rebecca Paradiso de Sayu & Mapumba Cilombo Creative Directors: Rebecca Paradiso de Sayu & Mapumba Cilombo To learn more about Rebecca and her work, visit Together in Beauty - togetherinbeauty.com - home to the Liberating Beauty Podcast.

The Art of Presence

What if presence is the doorway to creativity?  In this week's episode, we continue our Creativity mini-series - exploring how the present moment fuels our most creative lives. In this conversation, Ryan Erisman - a former Marine Infantry Officer, a regenerative farmer, and a leadership coach - recounts his most powerful experiences of presence, moments of wellbeing in a combat zone, and how he’s learning to let go of attachments in the ordinary rhythms of everyday life. Ryan’s story holds practical lessons for each of us as we practice the art of showing up to what's available in the here and now.  Host: Rebecca Paradiso de Sayu Original Music: Mapumba Cilombo Producers: Rebecca Paradiso de Sayu & Mapumba Cilombo Creative Directors: Rebecca Paradiso de Sayu & Mapumba Cilombo To learn more about Rebecca and her work, visit Together in Beauty - togetherinbeauty.com - home to the Liberating Beauty Podcast.

The Prophet’s Messenger

What if we can express our creativity even after we die? What encouragement awaits our creative lives when we open to what we cannot see or know for sure? This week’s episode continues our mini-series on Creativity, one of Beauty's kindred expressions. Rebecca shares a story about her father who, although no longer with us in this physical reality, found a way to message her about releasing what blocks us from living as our most creative selves.  If you’ve ever yearned to express your creative light and wished to feel held and known, this one is for you.  Host: Rebecca Paradiso de Sayu Original Music: Mapumba Cilombo Producers: Rebecca Paradiso de Sayu & Mapumba Cilombo Creative Directors: Rebecca Paradiso de Sayu & Mapumba Cilombo To learn more about Rebecca and her work, visit Together in Beauty - togetherinbeauty.com - home to the Liberating Beauty Podcast.

Incubating Beauty

What if creativity is the thread that leads us back to beauty - and to who we truly are? In this week's episode of the Liberating Beauty Podcast, we continue our mini-series on Creativity and its power to illuminate beauty even after years of its absence. Rebecca is joined by her dear friend Gail Jacob – a beloved pioneer in the field of developmental disabilities and a gifted textile artist – to trace the path creativity carves through the course of one woman's life. From a childhood marked by deprivation, through a career filled with reverence for different ways of being, to the arrival of a daughter who awakened her creative spark, Gail's story holds a question for all of us: what beauty lives within us before we know it's there?

The Feeling of Creativity

We tend to associate creativity with the forms it takes like painting, music, or dance. But what if creativity - like beauty - is a frequency more than a form? What if creativity is the experience of being ourselves whenever we open to expressing who we truly are?   Today's episode opens a mini-series on the topic of creativity, one of beauty's kindred expressions. Rebecca shares examples of where she notices creativity in ordinary experiences - sometimes in ways she wouldn't have thought of as creative.   In the coming weeks, Rebecca will be joined by guests who will take us deeper into these questions. This series is an unfolding conversation, and you are part of it. Where is creativity expressing itself in your life? How can you nurture and invite your creative spirit in everyday moments?
