Relatable and insightful

I’m a digital artist and this is one of my favorite art podcasts. I decided to pursue art in my 30s. It’s comforting to hear the journey of other artists, how they tackled roadblocks, and continue to balance all their responsibilities. I love hearing about their creative processes. I hope they have a few concept artists in the future but I’ve gained something from each of the 4-5 episodes I’ve listened to so far.

Inspirational and lovely!

Wow! I found this podcast while I was trying to find a podcast about improving my own art. I love the ladies in this podcast! Everyone sounds so kind and inspirational. I hope they continue and will share more with us all! Thank you for this podcast!

Inspiring creative podcast! ✨

I recently found this podcast and so look forward to listen to these beautiful women talk about their art, creativity, routines, and life balances. I am only starting out on my personal artistic journey, I have never thought of myself as creative… until now! These amazing women have convinced me, thank you so much!

Humble, helpful, and full of heart

I first learned about this podcast from Sarah’s Instagram page, and I was intrigued. I’ve never really gotten in to podcasts before, but thought I would give it a try. I have to admit, I’ve been converted! I’ve listened to all the episodes so far and have learned so much! Hearing each of them recount their stories about how they transitioned to working full time as artists is so motivating for me as I try to do the same. And I love that each of them is so humble in talking about their experiences. Through their own missteps and frustrations, which they so generously share with listeners, they exude this quiet confidence that I find so refreshing! We need more of that among creative women! I pick up something helpful in every episode that guides me on my own path to pursue my creative practice. It’s wonderful that these three women are giving back in such a meaningful way. It matters!

Connecting and Learning

I found Sarah through a Domestika course and soon after began following these ladies on Instagram. I’ve been so delighted to find their podcast and hear their discussions as they share their different paths to becoming thriving women artists. Each podcast is like sitting in a coffee shop with these talented but everyday women and connecting with and learning from them.

Love this informative podcast

I have followed all three of these talented women on Instagram for awhile and I’m so glad they’ve come together to share their knowledge. The podcast has such a relaxing and yet energetic flow that helps to motivate me to produce. Each episode is informative and I love how they share their own take to the questions asked. Highly recommend listening, you won’t be disappointed

Just kept listening!

Three amazing women inspiring me nonstop. They have such a natural and casual flow. I feel like I’m just hanging out with friends, hearing all their brilliants thoughts and advice.

My new hangout

I love this podcast so much! I have never been able to listen to a complete podcast because I prefer to listen to music but these 3 amazing girls are like going out with your friends to a cafe while drinking some coffee and painting and just feel inspired by what they do and have accomplished. I really appreciate what you are doing because as an introvert, you guys are the kind of friends and conversations I would like to have near me. Thanks again!

Delightful & Inspiring

As a latecomer to making art, I love listening to these women talk about their journeys & offer encouragement & advice to aspiring artists. Definitely a new favorite podcast!
