When your dreams become a map to creating

Описание: In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend Sophia—an artist, diamond grader, new wife, and creative soul who has walked alongside me for nearly a decade. We talk about the evolution of her art, from hyper-realistic portraits to abstract work, and what it looks like to create from a place of freedom rather than performance.
Sophia opens up about the shift from control to letting go, how seasons of life mirror seasons in art, and why she had to step away from social media to rediscover the joy of creating for herself. We also dive deep into something rarely talked about in creative circles—*how dreams become a map for creating.*
She shares about receiving dreams and visions from the Lord, how she moves from anxious thoughts into a safe creative space in her mind, and the responsibility that comes with dreaming. If you've ever struggled with creative blocks, comparison, or wondered how to access the deeper wells of inspiration—this conversation will meet you there.
We talk about daydreaming, grounding exercises, the vulnerability of the creative process, and why it's okay when your art reflects darkness or confusion. This episode is for anyone learning to trust the process, tend to their inner world, and create from a place of authenticity and rest.
