S7 Ep 6: Finding Joy in Not Knowing: Pia Leichter on Creative Pivots, Trust, and Living Fully
Description
On today’s episode I am joined by Pia Leichter, creative partner, author, and creative coach for a conversation about embracing pivots, unleashing creativity, and designing life as your biggest art project.
Pia shares her journey from New York City to Copenhagen and transition from a decade-long agency career to entrepreneurship by finally listening to that little voice nudging her toward something bigger. We debunked the myth that we’re supposed to have it all together by a certain age because that doesn’t leave room to grow or cultivate new experiences.
You’ll hear some beautiful reflections on navigating loss, the courage it takes to make big life pivots, and practical wisdom for artists and creatives striving to bloom within the realities of life. Pia also discusses her book, "Welcome to the Creative Club: Make Life Your Biggest Art Project," and shares why she believes every leap of faith can spark lasting transformation.
Pia invites us to challenge our own notions of security, trust the process, and find joy in not knowing what’s next. Get ready to dive into a conversation that’s equal parts practical, philosophical, and deeply nurturing for the creative soul.
