Hello again friends it's Mark Stinson hearing you've tuned into the podcast unlocking

your world of creativity and you know we promise to take you around the world to

places like Milan and Oslo and Paris, India all over the US looking

for experts that can give us creative inspiration and guidance on getting our

work out into the world and it occurred to me the other day we have gone looking outside of ourselves

for creative inspiration and today we're going to look inside ourselves.

And my guess is just my true.

Jess, it's so great to have you on the program.

Thank you.

breath work and Reiki. You know, it's just a great Venn diagram of this body
