055: Portrait of An Artist (with Children)

with host artist Miriam Schulman

Today, we’re talking all about why being a mother can be an asset to your art career. Now this is something I’ve always believed for myself, so I was a little surprised when I was recently interviewed on someone else’s podcast and the conversation turned to motherhood.

In this podcast, you will discover…

How my first trimester miscarriage shaped me as an artist
How my being a mother enhanced my growth as a professional artist
That women don’t have to choose between motherhood and becoming an artist

Calling all artists...

This episode is sponsored by The Six Figure Artist, an art business coaching division of The Inspiration Place. For many people, when they hear "artist" they think of the “starving artist.” I want you to know that I’ve gone on to create a 6-figure career as an artist, and I want to take down that "starving artist" myth. My specialty is helping other artists take their talent and create a thriving business out of it with practical strategies that go beyond the inspiration shared on this podcast. If you want to profit from your passion or you want a clear strategy to ramp up your existing creative business but you’re spinning and don’t know what to do next, I can help you.
