The Artistic Struggles We All Face: Vanessa Castro and Alycia Chornohus Share Their Stories

I think that just makes people better when they feel like they don't have to put up walls and don't have to be living in the ego brain, you know, and feeling isolated...just show up, that's enough.

In this episode of 'The Journey to Creativity', Vanessa Castro welcomes her dear friend and fellow artist, Alycia Chornohus, to discuss the common dramas that come with living a creative life.

Expect plenty of laughter and heartfelt moments as these two artists share their experiences. Vanessa and Alycia don't shy away from discussing the tough stuff. They talk about the crippling self-doubt and constant comparison that often plague artists. Alycia candidly shares how reconnecting with her inner child has been a game-changer in breaking down self-imposed barriers.
She reminds us that everyone has the right to pursue their creative dreams, saying, 'I'm entitled to do this and other people are doing it, so I can do it too. It's just a commitment.' The episode also emphasizes the importance of learning through the creative process. Both Vanessa and Alycia stress that making mistakes is part of the journey. Alycia's wisdom shines through when she says, 'You can't think you can complete this learning process in one go...
if you do it every day, you feel good about it.' This perspective is a refreshing reminder that growth often comes from trial and error. Navigating the natural drama of an artist's life is another key theme. Vanessa reflects on how embracing her inner child has helped her stay grounded and validate her creative pursuits. She encourages listeners to hold on to their passions, even if it means dedicating hours after work or other obligations.
