Unlocking Creativity and Courage: Onika's Transformation Through The Artist's Way

In this inspiring episode, I chat with Onika, a busy mum and business analyst who discovered an unexpected path to wellness through creativity. What started with an out-of-character solo skiing trip to Oslo evolved into a profound journey of self-discovery that transformed her life in ways she never imagined.

At the heart of Onika's transformation was her experience with The Artist's Way, a creative self-discovery course that uses daily journalling and dedicated 'me-time' to unlock hidden potential. She candidly shares how these simple practices helped her overcome the guilt of prioritizing herself and the discomfort of being alone - challenges that many busy women face. Through honest conversation, Onika reveals how making space for creativity helped her reconnect with forgotten passions and embrace new challenges, ultimately leading her from someone who avoided cameras to competing in Hyrox races in front of them.

This episode is packed with practical insights about how small, consistent acts of self-discovery can create ripple effects of positive change in your life. Onika's journey shows that transformation doesn't require expensive programs or huge time commitments - just a willingness to start and the courage to keep going.

Whether you're feeling stuck in life's daily routine, curious about The Artist's Way, or simply searching for a fresh approach to wellness, this conversation offers achievable steps and heartfelt inspiration. Perfect for any woman wondering if there's more to life than just getting through the daily checklist.
