About this podcast

Artists Rising

JennyRebecca Ronning

"The opposite of depression is EXPRESSION" - Dr. Edith Eger ARTISTS RISING is about RISING UP through the discovery and re-discovery of our creativity. It is about healing and transformation through the cultivation of creativity and through creating thoughts and emotions that will be the canvas, the foundation...of our masterpiece, our best life. I believe everyone is creative, we are born that way, but we forget, and we conform and get covered up. Creativity is a recovery process. It’s the road home we are all searching for. Stepping into the flow of creativity is stepping into healing, and it’s stepping into an encounter with the most sacred version of your truest self… it’s connecting with the divine and most powerful life force that exists. Created with community, storytelling and wholehearted artistic development in mind, singer-songwriter (and recovering classical musician) JennyRebecca Ronning, sits down with people who inspire her and teaches on topics she wished she would have known more about as a younger artist - specifically things we don't tend to learn in art schools and music conservatories like mental and emotional health, how to cultivate creativity and how to invite people along on your creative journey and turn your passion into a business or a community, if that is what you desire. No matter what stage of life you are in - whether you are a seasoned artist or just beginning to tap into your creativity - we all need reminding about how to step into that flow...how to realize that place as our home, and how to navigate the blocks and resistance that try to keep us disconnected.

Follow @artistsrisingco on instagram and facebook for more inspo and a community built to encourage and empower you to go forward pursuing your creative dreams with more confidence, resilience, and freedom to show up and do what we, as artists, do best - BE VULNERABLE, day after day!

Finding Calm in Chaos: Managing Anxiety with Artists Rising

“Anxiety is a reality but not a lifestyle and they did this by cultivating calm and stillness in their lives and making these practices their norm.”

Feeling overwhelmed by anxiety and unsure how to channel it into something positive? In this episode of 'Artists Rising', host JennyRebecca Winans Ronning dives into the intricate relationship between anxiety and creativity. Drawing inspiration from Brene Brown's research, JennyRebecca discusses how those who live wholeheartedly aren't free from anxiety but are instead aware of it. They understand that while anxiety is a reality, it doesn't have to dictate their lives.

By cultivating calm and stillness, they manage their anxiety rather than letting it control them. JennyRebecca shares practical tips like ensuring you have all the information before making decisions and adopting a superhero mindset to see things from a different perspective. She also highlights how anxiety can be contagious, but so can calm. By practicing stillness and recognizing our habitual responses to anxiety, we can change our behaviors and unleash our creativity.

This episode offers a hopeful and encouraging approach to managing anxiety, providing listeners with actionable strategies to find calm amidst the chaos.
