join jessica libor of the creative heroines podcast and myself as we talk about investing in your business. we discuss and share some wise investments you can make into your business as well as unregrettable investments we’ve personally made. when i began my art business, every bit of profit went right back into my business. there were grids to buy for art shows and fairs, paint to replenish and money to use to build and keep up a website. sometimes they were simple investments like books or medium sized investments like online courses. eventually, i could be more strategic as my income increased, i bought a nice camera, a car lol and now i’m building a studio in our front yard. there’s also the time and energy that you invest in your business and the priorities you keep. while jessica went to art school and i went to architecture school, we both agree that it’s important to follow your heart and find the path that’s best for you. even more important is to find gratitude within your unique path and to support other artists on their path. we all will have different goals and dreams for our art and it’s crucial to stay positive with other artists (and ourselves), to remember that there is room for all creatives and that the world needs your work and creativity. LINKSjessica libor’s art website: jessicalibor.com  jessica’s creative heroine website (coaching & mentoring): thecreativeheroines.comjessica’s era contemporary gallery: eracomtemporary.comjessica’s instagrams: @jessicaliborstudio @thecreativeheroinesapply & join us spring 2026 at our residency mastermind: the nature of creation: artistic awakening  CONNECT WITH ME:katrinaberg.comemail: k@katrinaberg.comjoin my SWEETlist (my email list)instagram @katrina.berg LEAVE ME FEEDBACK: - what should i talk about next?  let me know in the comments below. - did you enjoy this episode? if so, leave me a review!

CANDYcolored studio podcast episode 242:a few years ago, an artist who i love and admire shared with me that her family felt she shouldn't be "already" experiencing success in her art career because she hadn't "put in her dues" yet. this was mind-blowing to me. if there was ever a place to find your biggest supporters, it should be your parents and family -- especially when your parent is an artist!! i'll be sharing some thoughts on this experience and a couple others of mine and that have been shared with me. sometimes it really is too easy to look at our own perceived "lacking" situation and simply decide that it's either not our fault or someone else's fault. but who really has the power and the responsibility to change our situation? what can we do to fix things in our own realm? LINKSriverside podcast recording platformla petite maison antiques - follow amanda's stories on instagram to follow along their latest trip in francejennifer chipman's bond design company on instagram and youtubebear brief - hurricane helene strange things and on-the-ground update (watch below)four lemons - (nanette's utah art market permanent storefront/art gallery) on instagram - 4850 S Highland Dr, Holladay, UT | 10am-6pm | Tuesday - Saturdayutahartmarket.com - 135 fine art show nov 9th, holiday market dec 4-7springville museum of art’s 38th annual spiritual & religious show oct 16th - jan 9th100 dollar show at smofa - thurs dec 5th from 6:30 to 8 pmnancy andruk olson - brighter day handmade watercolor paints | watercolormonthly subscription | see 2025 colors belowj kirk richards prints | jkrgallery | instagramjenna kutcher's episode 804 - do these 6 things now to end your year strong! ep 804jason horejs - gallery owner of xanadu in scottsdale, son of artist, wrote books starving to successful and how to sell artloralee nicolay | instagramCANDYcolored studio podcast episode 31 - a support system for artists & why you need it most (listen below)CONNECT WITH ME:katrinaberg.comemail: k@katrinaberg.comjoin my SWEETlist (my email list)instagram @katrina.bergLEAVE ME FEEDBACK: - what should i talk about next?  let me know in the comments below. - did you enjoy this episode? if so, leave me a review!

CANDYcolored studio podcast episode 237:what are the best places to buy art materials? there are great places online and locally but i have found buying in bulk to be the most helpful for me. do you ever think about "world peace" and what that would look like? which are more important to you: peace or agency/free will? which do you think will make the biggest difference in our world?loss, betrayal & change — everyone I talk with is grieving someone or something. grief is an uncomfortable but necessary part of life. when we don’t face or work through our grief it can come back later with a vengeance interrupting or triggering us at the most inopportune times. it’s normal to be affected by grief time and time again, but the more we bravely walk through it or talk about it, the easier it becomes and the more we can learn from the experience. what are you & your loved ones grieving? what helps you most as you process your grief? who needs your help most in their grief?LINKS“be like them” heavenly parents art show at writ and vision“the measure of her creation” certain women art show at jkr galleryart & soup cns caresjill barber song “beautiful life”craig frames- my link for 10% off: https://www.craigframes.com/?ref=KATRINABERGmark‘s easels: https://www.robertseasels.com/AAUW women’s show apply herethe body keeps the score by bessel van der kolk CONNECT WITH ME:katrinaberg.comemail: k@katrinaberg.comjoin my SWEETlist (my email list)instagram @katrina.berg LEAVE ME FEEDBACK: - what should i talk about next?  let me know in the comments below. - did you enjoy this episode? if so, leave me a review!
