TEDx Talk

I was a speaker at the TEDx conference in Katoomba in June 2023, speaking on the topic of Connecting With Creative Flow. I shared my story of reconnecting with creative flow after a significant artist's block that saw me unable to paint. Decades ago, before Mindfulness even became a recognised practice, my Gran taught me to be mindful in nature, to breathe and to bathe in the present. Along with being in nature, I found the practices of journalling, yoga, dance, swimming and contemplative walking to be crucial in my journey to recovery. In the presentation I share how connection, courage and curiosity are needed to be creative, underpinned by commitment and conviction.
