O'SIMUS

Welcome to Wheels Off. This is the pre-introduction as we bring you a handful of episodes to start 2022 that are the favorites from the just completed year 2021, fan favorites, the most listened to episodes.

This one makes sense that it would be among those because my guest is Julia Cameron,

the author of too many books for me to name right now, but most notably the artist's way.

She came to Wheels Off because she was mentioned by Brian Coppelman, a great writer who talked about her book The Artist's Way and his use of the tenets, which she outlines in that book, most notably the Morning P pages. He mentioned how he loves to write morning

So I went back, I read it, loved it, I lived by it now. I write morning pages myself almost every morning.

And getting to interview Julia Cameron was definitely a high point of last year for me.

She's brilliant.

Her advice is so useful.

She's so generous in her sharing of it.

I'd like to share with you before we get to the actual introduction that I've recorded back during the time of the interview itself.

I'd like to share with you a quote of Julia Cameron's from the artist's way.

In times of pain when the future is too terrifying to contemplate and

the past too painful to remember, I have learned to pay attention to right now. The precise

moment I was in was always the only safe place for me. That's Julia Cameron from the artist's way. I can't recommend enough this great

interview that she gave me for Wheels Off. So allow me to introduce myself introducing the great

Julia Cameron. That's when they got wheels off We're the ultimate wheels off guest.

She's many things. She's many things. She's an author, an artist, a poet, a

playwright, a novelist, a filmmaker, composer, journalist. But she's best known as a teacher.

And what she teaches is creativity. What she teaches is unblocking, how to get past the things that hold us back.

And for my money, she's the best at it. I only recently discovered her. Her book, The Artist's Way, was sitting on my shelf
