The Creative JuggleJoy Podcast: From Passion to Profit

Day 1 of the Profitable Artist Summit reminded me why I love this work. From exploring trends with Vanessa to turning painted flowers into patterns, every talk was a gift. Here are my reflections on community, creativity and the business lessons I wish I’d known when I started.

From rural beginnings to co‑hosting an international summit, I reflect on why accessible education for artists matters so much. The Profitable Artist Summit grew out of my desire to provide practical, heart‑centred skills that empower creatives to thrive. I hope you feel encouraged and supported on your journey.

In this reflective blog post, Delores shares the emotions behind organising the Profitable Artist Summit 2026. She highlights the generous lineup, the live workshop schedule and her invitation to artists to join with nothing more than a sketchbook and a dream.

Building a sustainable creative business is less about talent and more about resilience, curiosity and community. In this reflective post I share how discarded magnets and missed sales became stepping stones to a thriving art practice, and why systems and support make all the difference.

Overwhelm isn’t random; it’s a pattern rooted in our beliefs. Join Delores and business coach Colleen Underwood as they explore the five archetypes of overwhelm and share gentle shifts to help creatives find calm and clarity.

In this reflective post, I share why Kaylie and I chose to spotlight UN Women during Podcasthon. As a mother, grandmother and artist, I see how global equality shapes our creativity. I invite you to listen, learn, and be part of the change.

The 2026 creative forecast invites a soft rebellion. Delores reflects on the calming off‑white hue Cloud Dancer, tactile textures, NeoDeco nostalgia and building sustainable rhythms. It’s a gentle, nurturing perspective for artists seeking depth and joy.

Starting 2026 with clarity means honouring what works and letting the rest go. In this reflective post, Delores shares the systems that stuck, how she’s refreshing her courses and why progress and joy matter more than perfection.

In this episode of Creative Juggle Joy, I chat with KeriAnne Daniels, the founder of Kind Words Count, about how her brand blossomed from love, friendship, and one simple creative act that grew into something far bigger.

From consignment shops and craft fairs to licensing deals and online teaching, I’ve spent decades figuring it out one twist at a time. In this post, I share the heartwarming, hilarious, and sometimes humbling truth of what it really takes to become an online teacher as a creative.

You don’t need perfect conditions to be creative. In fact, working within constraints often shapes stronger, more focused work. Here’s how Kaylie and I navigate energy, tech, and time limitations—and how you can too.
