Welcome to this week’s episode! We’re deep-diving into the creative mindset and returning to being seen after years of creating behind the scenes. We’ll also share a brilliant practice to help you move through creative blocks. I am joined by Dulce Ruby, an international artist and herbal alchemist who creates artworks and tools to awaken and activate people to their dream realities. She had over 1 million people as part of her community on Instagram until she was hacked and started her new account.

What’s in This Episode:

Dulce first gives us her definition of creativity, which she believes is magic. “The eminence of what is desiring to be birthed through an individual at a given moment. It’s what fulfills, fills, and breathes life into you, and how can you breathe that into the world? Creativity is who you are, materialized into this plane of existence, the 3D material, physical.”

Dulce shares her current relationship with creativity, stating that she consistently pours magic into the world and that her creativity is intertwined with her day-to-day life. She also shares that her creativity has been stunted, halted, or hidden as she worked through creating projects behind the scenes including leading a World Peace Tour and creating Despierta, which was meant to be a downloadable antidote for what aches the human mind, body, and soul.

Dulce talks about coming back to sharing her creations, “I feel like, as I was hiding myself and my creations, more than people who were used to, I guess seeing me and seeing my work and seeing my words and feeling and just nourishing their souls and trying to say that not in an egotistical way but being able to receive my love and my outpouring and my magic, my creativity, and being able to utilize that as a healing modality for themselves.”

Topics Covered:

Dulce’s expansive definition of creativity and how creativity is part of everyday life.
