Kerry Lyons – rediscovering the inner artist
Creativity Found: finding creativity later in life10/15/23 • 43 min
Navigating change and inspiring creativity.
Kerry Lyons shares her inspiring path, starting from her childhood love for art – influenced by her architect father – to overcoming societal expectations and enriching her everyday life through her artistic pursuits.
Kerry opens up about a transformative quarter-life crisis that saw her end a long-term relationship, sell her house, take a solo trip to the US and move to Dublin.
Her career in graphic design progressed through agencies and freelancing, and Kerry ventured into crowdfunding to release a purposeful planner that brought together her expertise in manufacturing, design and personal development.
It doesn't stop there. Kerry delves into her recent transition into creative coaching and pattern design. As she navigates her journey of self-discovery as a wallpaper and surface designer, creative coach and illustrator, we shed light on the importance of taking risks, learning from failures, and embracing change.
This episode is a treasure trove of insightful experiences for anyone seeking to reconnect with their creative side and live authentically.
