Subscribe to my sister Substack, Travel like an Artist - a weekly companion to this podcast where I share creative travel stories, resources, interviews, and ways to see the world (near and far) like an artist.
In this episode, I sit down with artist, teacher, and life coach Leslie O’Leary for a heartfelt conversation about what it really means to navigate creative and life transitions.
Leslie opens up about stepping away from 35 years of teaching, how she finds beauty in endings, and what happens when we finally make space for something new to emerge.
We talk about resistance, acceptance, and the quiet art of becoming who we’re meant to be next.
If you’ve ever felt restless, uncertain, or in-between - this one’s for you.
