I am surrounded by creative types, and I’ve always been interested in learning how people incorporate their art into their spiritual path. I realized that I wanted to know more about how people explore their spirituality through their creative work, and vice versa: how their spirituality inspired or directed their artistic expression. And by art, I mean any kind of creative expression: model building, design, writing, painting, digital sketching, cooking, music, calligraphy, tattooing, horticulture, dancing, sculpting, sewing, woodworking, knitting, temporary or ephemeral art—any and all forms of creative expression are valid, professional or amateur.
This podcast series features guests from all sorts of different walks of life, talking about their personal spiritual paths and their creative expression. Join me for a monthly dialogue with an artist about their creative process, and how it intersects with and informs (and is informed by) their spiritual practice or path.
Launching 28 September 2023.

Today’s guest is Erica Helder, a Canadian abstract artist and horticulturalist based in Brant, Ontario, Canada. We talk about art as an expression of emotion, creative blocks, self-discovery through art, touching the magic of the natural world, and the challenges—and joys!—of sharing art with the public.
I’m thrilled to have her as a guest, and I’m very excited for listeners to learn about how creativity and spirituality intersect for Erica.
