Hello!

It’s another interview episode of the Create Shift podcast. This time with a coach I’ve been working with since 2020, the wonderful Ray Dodd. In this episode we talk all things money making and creativity. We also manage to discuss Lin Manuel Miranda (why not?!), the spreadsheet olympics (because apparently that’s a real thing) and Ray wins the prize for first use of the phrase ‘raw dogging’ on the podcast.

Get your notebook out, there’s plenty of juicy stuff in this conversation!

Topics covered:

* Ray’s approach to money goals, why you need to go for more than enough

* The most common money challenges Ray sees amongst her clients who are artists/creatives

* The need to realise you’re a business owner as an artist/creative

* Being your real self in your art & your money making

* Not judging your own path

* Developing your own relationship with money

* Artists need coaching more than anybody (and if you want it with me, here’s the info)

* How society has shaped our relationship to money & to creativity

Links & resources mentioned

* Listen to Ray’s podcast Real You,Real Money
