Ep 55: Making a Living Doing What You Love: The Alchemy of Artist + Entrepreneur with Lara Cornell

Do you desire to make money doing what you love, but feel there's no abundance in being an artist? In my conversation with Lara, you will hear a fresh perspective on the creative life, and how the "starving artist" stories of yesterday are simply a myth. It is a mission close to my own heart, and this conversation speaks volumes as to how you can leave your legacy as a creative, and yes....make money doing so! If you have a creative passion, this is your birthright and your episode.

In this episode, Lara and I talk about the state of the world regressing + progressing and how to harness this energy as a changemaker, exploring the creative life with curiosity, seeing artistry as a skill, asking what you're worth, and how the world is slowly shifting to value creativity in entrepreneurship over strategy.

Lara is also dedicated to helping artisans elevate their craft, and create sustainable practices within their work to preserve the precious planet we live on. She also donates her time and proceeds to art restoration projects through the Sustainable Artisan Guild.

"I can be found usually covered in paint, with gold leaf in my hair and a minimum of 3 books in my handmade bag while juggling a raspberry mocha from a local coffee shop, my three kids, a handful of slow flowers. I’m a sucker for a great antique chandelier, a vintage dresser with impeccable dovetail joints, a good farmers market, a well-created sustainable brand, a stone paper journal, a handcrafted scented pencil, and any opportunity to learn something new." - Lara Cornell
