This Friday my featured favorite thing is Your Creative Spark, a series of audio interviews with life coach Jamie Ridler. This collection of 12 interviews with creative bloggers is both inspiring and encouraging. Many of my favorites are in there: my Soulsister Jen Lemen of Picture Hope, Christine Mason Miller of Swirly Girl, the incomparable Leonie Allen of Goddess Guidebook, and more. Each interview is under 20 minutes, and as Jamie suggests in the introduction, listening to them while you create is a lovely thing to do indeed!

This morning I listened again to the interview with Suzie Ridler of Suzie the Foodie. I was so inspired to hear how she turned a chronic illness and the need to be homemaker into a creative feminist adventure. And Lani Taylor’s advice on getting through your perfectionism to actually get things done is something many of us could stand to hear.

The entire Your Creative Spark package includes the 12 interviews in audio (3 hours) and in transcript form.It sells through Starshyne Studios for $47, which when you think about it is about $4 an interview. That’s about the amount you’d pay for a magazine with the hopes of reading one good article. But in this audio magazine, every article is 4 star. Thank you Jamie, for gathering up all this wisdom into one giant pool!
