Edie is a self-taught painter, musician, and writer whose work flows across the porous borders between music, colour, story, dream, and video. Raised in the Netherlands, Edie travelled through Paris, Sydney, and Los Angeles before planting roots in the Hudson Valley. Over the years, she has released five albums, held art shows in Nashville and New York, painted murals, published mindful children’s books, created intimate video pieces, and collaborated on the oracle deck Healing the Inner Child via Hay House.\nIn this conversation, we explore the essence of creativity and the balance between doing and being. We explore the importance of giving space and time to ideas, as well as attuning to the muse that lives as presence in ordinary moments.\nUltimately, she highlights the significance of relationality, living attentively, and embracing the flow of existence.\nFor more of Edie's work:\nWebsite: https://www.edieart.com/\nYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@EdieArt77\nFor more from Mark McCartney:\nNewsletter: https://www.whatisagood.life/\nWebsite: https://www.mmcleadership.com/\nLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-mccartney-14b0161b4/\nYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@whatisagoodlife\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/markcmccartney\n00:00 What is trying to emerge?\n04:45 Authority and uncertainty\n10:00 Exploring how things are\n13:00 Balancing masculine and feminine energies\n17:30 The call into nature\n25:00 Giving life more space\n31:05 The seriousness and lightness of life\n36:15 Parenting, relating, and space\n42:00 Letting go of control\n45:00 Meaningful and meaningless\n48:00 Answering a call to creativity\n51:30 The significance of place\n54:30 Summary and what is a good life for Edie?\nKeywords: Meaning of Life Interviews | meaning of life conversations | exploring life | big life questions | meaning of life discussions | creating a meaningful life​","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/bmT8FMFAsdpL8YpCcl1-OrgjJf3IhVZ_KJftDu8Wgy8/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzM3NDg2LzE2NzI4/MzUxMDgtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
