Author, psychologist, and emotional-wellness strategist Dr. Yanina Gomez joins us on the podcast to explore how artists can overcome fear, self-doubt, and rejection by cultivating self-compassion and emotional awareness. Together we dive deep into the inner landscape of the creative process—where mindset, self-trust, and personal growth meet artistic expression.
Dr. Yanina and I discuss how to identify limiting beliefs, release perfectionism, and reframe comparison, offering practical tools to help artists stay grounded, resilient, and connected to their purpose.
Here’s what we discuss:
• The connection between mindset, creativity, and emotional wellness
• Recognizing and reframing limiting beliefs
• Moving from self-criticism to self-compassion
• Shifting from perfectionism to progress and presence
• The power of journaling, gratitude, and awareness
• Facing fear and rejection with courage and clarity
