Please welcome to The Inspiration Place, Tara Newman. Hey Tara, welcome to the show.
Tara Newman:
Hey Miriam. I’m super excited to be here.
Miriam Schulman:
Tara is one of my real life friends, as well as someone I truly admire in the online space. The reason I invited you Tara is because in the artists communities, the starving artist mindset mentality is rampant and you have some really beautiful ways to being more open to receiving. I know this is something we all need to always be opening ourselves to more abundance. This is something that I know I need to work on and my audience does as well.
Tara Newman:
It’s interesting because I was raised in the art business.
Miriam Schulman:
You were?
Tara Newman:
My grandfather, he had a starving artist mentality and so I’m actually the byproduct of multiple generations of that belief system. He was an author and an illustrator and a cartoonist. He was an inker in the 1950s for Marvel Comics and he was one of the originators of some of those characters that we love the most. Then my father owned a bronze casting foundry and was in the art gallery business my entire life growing up.
Miriam Schulman:
I had no idea. That’s fantastic. Thanks for sharing that.
Tara Newman:
If you’re in Washington DC and you see the three servicemen, the Vietnam Memorial, my dad was commissioned to bronze that. He worked with the artist to create that sculpture.
Miriam Schulman:
That’s fantastic. Now did you pursue any art at all or did you want to go a different path? What’s your story with that?
Tara Newman:
So in my house, if you couldn’t draw, you weren’t an artist, you weren’t creative at all, but I actually… I like to write and I find myself really creative and I find that my business is a huge creative outlet for me.
Miriam Schulman:
Me too. I mean just everything about even just creating these podcasts, I have a lot of fun and I find myself using those creative juices in every aspect of thinking about my business and my life.
Tara Newman:
Yeah, I spent a long time in learning and development, so creating a lot of content, educational content for leaders to develop.
Miriam Schulman:
That’s fantastic. Now I love that you have a degree in organizational psychology because that’s my favorite section of the bookstore is the positive psychology slash business psychology.
Tara Newman:
It’s so funny because I was just reading an article that it’s one of the lesser known psychologies and there’s this whole movement around really bringing organizational psychology to the forefront. It wasn’t very popular when I was going through school either in the late 90s, but I originally went for… I was going for clinical psychology. I went to SUNY Stony Brook, which is a huge research university and I was in their honors program and getting into a PhD program in clinical psychology is really hard. At the time, they only took a few students each year and you had to be really competitive.
Tara Newman:
I was in the honors college, I did my own research, I worked for crisis hotlines. I was all in on this and then when I was accepted to our grad school program, I took stock and I was like, you know what, all these psychologists that I talked to are miserable. It was at the height of the insurance company battles and stuff like that. I was like, “I’m going to pause that,” and I wound up just combining my love of business and psychology and went for industrial organizational psychology instead.
Miriam Schulman:
One of my best friends from college actually has a PhD I think an organizational psychology, but she didn’t do it in the states. She did in France and I’d totally butcher the name of that institution so I’m not even going to try.
Tara Newman:
We’re the sellouts. That’s how everybody sees us in psychology. We’re the sell outs because we go and make more money coming out of grad school.
Miriam Schulman:
Oh yeah, but you’re the ones who write all the cool books and do all the cool things as far as… Because otherwise you don’t get to know the good work. The clinical stuff it impacts people for sure, but I love what you’re doing. So let’s talk about today’s topic. Let’s define what receiving is, what we’re taught… What we mean by being open to receiving?
Tara Newman:
Being open to receiving could… I mean at its most basic level, it’s about being open minded or open bodied, right, to receive input information from others, but most specifically where I see it coming up and really tripping people up in business is being open to receiving money.
Miriam Schulman:
Yes.
Tara Newman:
Open to receive even results or testimonials from clients, open to receiving praise and how that comes and really impacts your business. This is something that I struggled with greatly in the beginning. My husband also struggled with it too. He owns his own business and I was going through this issue with receiving money and really expanding my capacity to even receive praise or positive feedback or any of those things because I had been so notoriously hard on myself my whole life and he was really struggling with this as well. I tackled it from a perspective of energy and mindset and belief systems. He went through sales training and they went through it in a very practical sense where they were told to sit in front of each other and just give and receive compliments.
Miriam Schulman:
Oh, interest.
Tara Newman:
As a way of opening to receiving. It became a really interesting dialogue in my house for almost the entire year probably of 2016. We continue to work on it. It trips all people up, but I see it the most tripping up women as well.
Miriam Schulman:
I see it in the creative fields. A lot of the clients I work with, they have a lot of trouble asking money for their art and I see that as a receiving problem. Do you agree?
Tara Newman:
Oh yeah. It was really interesting to watch some of the patterns in my own family where my grandfather would do really well. He would be working for Marvel and they… Or he’d have a cartoon that… He had a popular cartoon in one of the New York papers. It was Don Quixote and it was in syndication, but as soon as he started to make too much money, it became like, oh, I’m a sellout. I’m not doing my art. I’m doing it for the man or whatever his belief systems were and they’d be eating really well and they were able to pay their bills and they’d be able to pay their mortgage and then he’d have this mindset meltdown and they’d be kind of back on this roller coaster ride of financial Helter Skelter so to speak.
Miriam Schulman:
Yeah, because I’m not a real artist if I’m doing well artists, I have to be a starving artist.
Tara Newman:
And my stepmother’s an artist as well. My dad has a different approach to it because my dad was never an artist. He was a son of a starving artist so he helps his clients really price their work for what it’s worth and the value that it adds and him and my stepmother always have these super interesting conversations about how she prices her pottery and stuff like that. They go to shows and she puts all her stuff out and then he re tagged everything.
Miriam Schulman:
Oh good. Yeah. You need somebody to do that for you. I mean that’s half what I do with my clients is I’d have to convince them to raise their prices and sometimes they have a… It’s a big deal even to raise it $10 they’re like, “Oh, I asked 170.” I said, “What about 190.” “You sure? That’s so much.”
Miriam Schulman:
I was like, “It’s only $20 more,” and then I need to get them to those baby steps so then really they should be asking 200, 300, even 400 for something like that. Why do you think that women have such a hard time? I have my own ideas, but I want to hear your perspective first.
Tara Newman:
I say there’s two kinds of science. I say there’s book science, right, like somebody’s written a research paper and we have the data from that evidence base, right? But then we also have another kind of evidence and that’s street science and that’s the anecdotal stuff. We see it every day. We know it to be true. I always like to say, “I’m not quoting any kind of paper right now. I am just going based on street science.”
Tara Newman:
I think that this is… There’s a lot of societal conditioning here for women around worthiness and being enough and receiving that gets tied into… It’s not just receiving money. It’s receiving support.
Miriam Schulman:
Yeah. What I see a lot with my students and my clients is that they spend their whole lives putting themselves on the back burner and putting other people’s needs first and giving and giving and giving. They’re so used to giving so that it makes them very uncomfortable then to receive.
Tara Newman:
They think that it works… They think that there’s this exchange where if I give enough, then I’ll receive.
Miriam Schulman:
That too. I think I’m guilty of that.
Tara Newman:
I think that we’re missing a really critical component in the fact that we’re assuming somebody knows what we need.
Miriam Schulman:
Which is one of your five strategies. Do you want to dig into that one about being willing to ask?
Tara Newman:
Oh, yeah. There’s a lot of people out there in the world that believe in the law of attraction and manifesting. Then there are a lot of people who think that the law of attraction is bogus. I’m not here to debate either point, but I have a saying that I tell all of my clients and I say the quickest way to manifest something is to ask for it.
Miriam Schulman:
I always feel like with the law of attraction, and we’re not here to debate that at all, but there is so much of it that is science based. It’s really about acting in this certain way, in this behavior and this mindset that does lead to inspired action slash abundance mindset, et cetera, et cetera. I’m glad you brought that up. Okay, so being able to ask. So how do you tell your clients or help your clients? What would be a way to start doing that?
Tara Newman:
When we have the benefits behind the benefits of say a program that you’re going through or something you’re investing in, one of the things that all of my programs are rooted in is receiving, is teaching women how to receive, but I don’t say, “Hey, I’m come here. I’m going to teach you how to receive,” because people don’t want to necessarily always buy that, right? But that is baked in to all of my programs.
Tara Newman:
One of the things is that you have to ask for what you need. I’m not a mind reader and I can’t support you, and we’re usually working in groups in a mastermind format or community format. Nobody here can help you unless they know what you need help with. This is a safe place for you to come and just ask, even if your ask is, “I don’t know what to ask, but I’m having this issue. I don’t know what to ask for. Can someone help me see what it is that I need?”
Tara Newman:
Because there’s a lot of truth in that, that we don’t always know what to ask for. We don’t always know even the question that we might need to ask. So that’s one just. I’ve always create this safe space where nobody’s dumb. People are afraid to not have all the answers so that stops them for asking. People are afraid to admit that they can’t do something all themselves. I mean, we come from a generation of women who was raised to be incredibly independent almost to the point where I think it works against us.
Miriam Schulman:
Yeah. I actually have a team member who’s incredibly shy and I’m always having to push her to ask me questions and check in with her to make sure she understands, because I know she doesn’t… I mean, she falsely thinks that if she asks a question that I’ll think she’s stupid because she didn’t get something in the first time and it’s always on me if she doesn’t understand something. Either I didn’t explain it well enough, I didn’t put it in writing, I didn’t give her enough instruction. So it’s always on me, but I know it’s not just true of this particular team member. I know it’s true of a lot of people, that they’re afraid of making themselves vulnerable by asking something they don’t know.
Tara Newman:
Some of us, myself is in this list of people that I’d never had a great grasp on what I wanted. There’s that book by Napoleon Hill Think and Grow Rich and I always laugh because his second chapter is on desire and I had to shut the book. I couldn’t get past the chapter. I was really stuck on wanting things because I didn’t want to be high maintenance, too wanting.
Miriam Schulman:
I actually never read that book. You would think I have because of all the other books I’ve read, but somehow I keep… Oh, I’ll get to that one.
Tara Newman:
Yeah and I got so stuck in it. It was one of the first chapters and I’m like, “This is so curious that I have such a hard time articulating what I desire.” One of the other things that I have my clients do, or that I suggest anybody doing, is a journaling exercise where you just open your journal and ask for what you want. You don’t even have to ask somebody in person. You can ask the universe, you can ask a higher power, you can ask God, whatever, just in your journal and just write it out in your journal and practice asking.
Miriam Schulman:
That’s something actually I do in one of my courses that I offer once a year, Painting with Words. We do a be, do, have exercise really just everything you want. It’s very similar because all the exercises I use inside that journaling class come from these exercises. It’s not like I made them all necessarily. I just made a way for people to represent it visually.
Miriam Schulman:
By the way, I wanted to let you know that I do have room inside my Artist Incubator Program. If you want to turn your passion for art into profits, but you’re lacking a solid strategy or a winning mindset, I can help you. If you’ve been listening to this podcast and you found my tips helpful, then maybe it’s time to take the next logical step and work with me on a deeper level. The Artist Incubator program is for artists who are serious about earning a living from their art. I’ll consider applications from those who are just starting out, but you have to be ready to be fully committed in order to grow your art business. There’s no fee or commitment to apply and those who qualify will get a free live strategy call with me. Everyone else will get a set of personalized recommendation sent to you by email. So you win no matter what. To apply, go to schulmanart.com/biz. That’s schulmanart.com/biz. Now back to the show.
Miriam Schulman:
I know one of the exercises you have. Is this a third step in the strategy or is this the same strategy, which is to define what wealth looks like for you. Would you consider that yet another strategy or is that also asking for what you want?
Tara Newman:
No, I think that you need to be able to identify what it is that you want to receive. I want more or I want abundance or I want wealth or I want more money. What does your more look like? And you have to be able to define it clearly. In terms of receiving it, I like to also just write that out. “I am open to receiving more income. I am open to receiving unexpected income. I’m open to receiving more time on my calendar,” because abundance isn’t just about money.
Miriam Schulman:
True.
Tara Newman:
Sometimes the way we feel the most abundant and the way we feel the most rich has nothing to do with money.
Miriam Schulman:
Yeah and I just want to make this very specific for my creative and artists because sometimes they don’t always make that leap themselves, but I am open to receiving money for my art. I’m open to making more art sales. I have abundant time to create because a lot of times, and I see this more with my art students than the clients I coached to sell their art, is they don’t even give… They feel they don’t have time to create because they’re always putting everybody else’s needs in front and they’re so used to that behavior so that even when they have free time, they’re still looking for what they can do for somebody else instead of looking at what they can do for themselves.
Miriam Schulman:
Okay, so that would be strategy number three. The fourth one that I know you talked about, which again this is another one I do with my art journaling students, is decluttering. Let’s talk about that because that’s one of my favorites.
Tara Newman:
Decluttering for me always comes first. It’s like the primer to goal setting even, the primer to opening yourself up to receive and it’s just get rid of the stuff that you don’t want anymore, that’s not in alignment of what you want to ask for. It’s hard to receive things when you’re so full, when you haven’t emptied out your space, but also yourself, your thoughts, your creativity, right? How can you receive more creativity if you’re holding all your creativity in and not expressing it? How can you be getting things out and away, and it could be digital decluttering, decluttering your home.
Tara Newman:
Right before I started my business, it’s like this big joke in my house. I went on such a bender decluttering because that was such a moment for me when I started my business that this person that is here now is not going to be here anymore. She’s changing. A new person is coming. This was like a big transformation.
Miriam Schulman:
Meaning yourself?
Tara Newman:
Meaning myself. It was a huge transformation and I sold everything, but the furniture.
Miriam Schulman:
Wow.
Tara Newman:
Either donate it, but also repurpose it, sell it, turn that into cash that you can use to put toward that new passion, the thing you really want the most, to feel more abundant, whatever it is that you want to do. Today, there’s any number of sites, consignment websites that you can go to even to help you do that. I used to hold garage sales all the time, but yeah declutter, get rid of the things that are holding those old energies or things that are standing in the way?
Miriam Schulman:
My underwear drawer usually goes first. Really I had maternity pantyhose in there from… I’m menopause already. No, I don’t have it now, but it wasn’t like it was so long ago that I got rid of those maternity pantyhose. Maybe it was… We don’t even wear pantyhose anymore. Women don’t even wear hose anymore, right? Then it’s also, I like decluttering because the replacement isn’t that expensive. You go to whatever, Victoria’s Secret or whatever your favorite underwear place is. It’s usually like $6 for a new pair of underwear. It’s not a big deal.
Tara Newman:
Considering you keep them for like 10 years too. I mean think about that.
Miriam Schulman:
Exactly. Although we shouldn’t. Isn’t that what our grandmothers tried to teach us? Always have clean underwear. I always find that an easy satisfying thing to do because it’s one drawer. It’s not like that closet that you always promise you’re going to clean that you don’t clean or maybe it’s just me. Are you a neat nick?
Tara Newman:
No, I’m organized. I’m organized. I wouldn’t necessarily consider myself neat. My husband is washed like the counters-
Miriam Schulman:
You’re organized, but not a cleaning freak.
Tara Newman:
Right. I know where my things are. They have a place. I like to organize. I like things to be streamlined and be minimal. I’m a minimalist so there’s not much to clean, but I was decluttering when I realized how connected it was to receiving and to just always kind of emptying out and making this space for the new. Every Monday morning for 15 minutes, I just declutter something in my house.
Miriam Schulman:
Oh that’s great. Can you give us ideas of what that would be? I am not a very organized or neat person. I am clean, but I’m not very organized. My digital life is organized, but my physical space is not. So give us some ideas since I have none.
Tara Newman:
For me too, I’m very sensitive to energy. I don’t know if you have any listeners… I’m sure you have some listeners who are sensitive to energy as well.
Miriam Schulman:
Oh absolutely. Yeah.
Tara Newman:
So one of the reasons why I do it on Monday morning is because it’s my way of cleansing the house because the family has left and gone back to school and I work from home so I need to do a clearing of the energy and I say I take 15 minutes, but I usually take like a half hour just because I enjoy it. I say 15 minutes if you’re really resistant to it, just set a timer. It’s amazing what you can get done in 15 minutes.
Tara Newman:
Usually the biggest culprit is the junk drawer in the kitchen that’s just every time you go into it, you’re jamming the drawer back in or your underwear drawer or your clothes that are hanging in your closet or your desk where you’re working. Just pick one spot or a bookshelf. Don’t go crazy town. You’re doing it once a week, every week, so you’re just going to cycle through and you’re not going to get it wrong. That’s the other thing. I don’t want to do it wrong. I need to get it right. It needs to be perfect. No it doesn’t. Clear the energy of one area.
Miriam Schulman:
It doesn’t matter if that area is in your art studio or your office, right? It’s just the physical act of doing some decluttering that sets you up mentally?
Tara Newman:
For me, absolutely. Lighting a candle that you might like or lighting incense to kind of cleanse the area and just declutter and change, shift the energy of the space.
Miriam Schulman:
A lot of artists like to burn sage.
Tara Newman:
That’s great.
Miriam Schulman:
Okay, so let’s run down and then we’ll dive maybe into another one. Let’s run down the five different strategies even if we have to repeat one of the ones you’ve already talked about.
Tara Newman:
Decluttering, we just talked about it. We talked about defining it. Define it. Always define it.
Miriam Schulman:
Define what an abundance looks like for you.
Tara Newman:
We really struggle to make things tangible and real because we don’t take the time to define something. In organizational psychology we talk about, or in psychology and research, we talk about operationalizing it. To me that means make it tangible, give it your own definition. Just because a word might mean something in the dictionary doesn’t mean you can’t give it your own definition or energy to it. Whether it’s abundance or more or wealth or rich, what does that mean to you is what define it means.
Tara Newman:
A lot of times we hear, for example, you can have it all and that gets really triggering for women. I say you can absolutely have it all when you define what your all is. Define it. We talked about ask, practice asking. The quickest way to manifest something is to simply ask for it. Find proof. That one we didn’t cover. Find proof.
Miriam Schulman:
No, let’s talk about that and what that means.
Tara Newman:
I do an exercise. It’s a couple of days in a row in my journal when I really want to kind of look at my receiving and so the first thing I do is maybe on a Sunday or Monday, or whenever your week starts. I know sometimes… Everybody’s week starts at a different time, but at that started the week, write a letter to whoever you believe in the universe, a higher power, God, Allah, whoever. Write a letter to just this higher being and ask for what you want. Ask for all the things that you want to see for yourself that week. It can be tangible. It can be intangible. We talked about some of them because you were saying more money from my art or a lot of times I’ll ask for engagement on my social media or engagement on my podcast or a podcast review. Just ask for what you want. Be really specific.
Tara Newman:
The next day, I take that list and I look at it and then I write the “I am open to receiving” statements. For me, writing things repetitively really helps work it through my body and embody it. I am open to receiving, I am open to receiving. I am open to receiving. For every ask you make, write that you are open to receiving and then you need to follow it up with looking for proof.
Tara Newman:
For the next few days that come after that, look for the evidence that this is showing up for you. Find it because so often we push away what we actually are receiving. We don’t acknowledge it, we don’t take it in. Look for that evidence and write it down so you can remember, because at the end of the week when you go in and do your review for the week, you don’t go, “Oh, I didn’t get any of this.”
Miriam Schulman:
Right.
Tara Newman:
Right? Or maybe something didn’t show up on that day, so your brain is in recency mode. On the Friday that you go to review your week, you didn’t receive anything, but on the days before that, you really did.
Miriam Schulman:
So you think it’s important for people to write their wins down as they come along or these proofs as they-
Tara Newman:
You’ll forget them.
Miriam Schulman:
Okay.
Tara Newman:
You won’t want to see them.
Miriam Schulman:
What do you mean you won’t want to see them?
Tara Newman:
People resist the things they’re receiving because they don’t come through exactly how they expect it to come in or it’s not tangibly measurable.
Miriam Schulman:
Is it also because we have a negativity bias too, like we’re looking for the negative rather than the positive?
Tara Newman:
Oh, yeah.
Miriam Schulman:
Okay, so that would be strategy number four, right? To look for proof. What’s number five?
Tara Newman:
Practice. I think that people really underestimate… Well, maybe… I bet you your crew probably doesn’t because they’re artists and they know the practice that goes into mastering their medium or their creation process.
Miriam Schulman:
No, but they need to be reminded because I can’t tell you how many people will be in a class and they’re learning a new skill and they expect the first time, whatever it happens to be, paint a portrait that it looks like something that would hang in a museum and I have to remind them, “First of all, things that hang in a museum, artists burn things they don’t like along the way.”
Miriam Schulman:
Monet destroyed a lot of art at the end of his life. Van Gogh was always painting over his canvases. If you expect everything you create to be museum worthy, you’re holding yourself to a higher standard than Monet and Van Gogh. They always… They do need to be reminded that practice is part of it, that not to hold themselves to this expectation of the first time that they do something, it’s going to be mastered.
Tara Newman:
Yeah. It’s really about practicing, whether it’s practice this, ask, receive, find proof method in your journal for the next 30 to 60 days or take a 100 day challenge and do it every day for 100 days. That’s practice or your declutter and you’re going to go on some kind of decluttering challenge or you’re going to declutter every Monday for the next 20 weeks.
Tara Newman:
One of the things that my husband had to practice in sales training was receiving compliments. That is something that is really hard, but fun to do. If you grab a friend or you grab your partner or anything and you sit down, you grab one of your kids and you sit down and you give them 10 compliments and they’re not supposed to say anything, but thank you.
Miriam Schulman:
I love that.
Tara Newman:
Then it’s your turn to receive those compliments and to say thank you and to feel how uncomfortable you are receiving those compliments and those praise and that acknowledgement because listen, if you’re an artist and you’re like, “Nobody’s acknowledging my work,” but you can’t receive acknowledgement because you’re uncomfortable, I bet you you’re receiving acknowledgement that you’re rejecting.
Miriam Schulman:
Right, that you’re not letting yourself hear or you hear it and you dismiss it for whatever reason. I agree with that. This has been super valuable, Tara. I’m so glad that I had you on. Now, I wanted to wrap this up for my listeners. First of all I want to remind them that they can connect with you, Tara, @TheTaraNewman and to listen to your podcast.

Miriam Schulman:
By the way, we’re going to also put all these links in the show notes, schulmanart.com/78 and I promised you video to go along with this where I’m going to be creating a visual journal page using the Wheel of Life. All right, Tara, so do you have any last words for my listeners before we call this podcast complete?
Tara Newman:
Yeah, I want to remind everyone that the quickest way to manifest something is to ask for it.
Miriam Schulman:
I love that.

Just click here to review, select “Ratings and Reviews” and “Write a Review” and let me know what your favorite part of the podcast is. Thank you!
