How Creativity Led to Discovering His "Why" and a Deeper Level of Self-Acceptance with Nick Cruz Velleman
11/15/21 • 47 min
Many of us strive to find something that lights us up inside, that makes us feel alive, and that creates peace and joy in our lives.
Today’s podcast guest, Nick Cruz Velleman, has discovered how creativity brings him to life, and on the podcast he shares with us:
- How art brings all of his energy and attention into the present moment
- How he uses creativity to center himself
- How you can access creative mindfulness within yourself
- And the reminder to discover and return to your why when things get tough
And you don’t want to miss when I ask Nick where he sees himself in 10 years. I’ll give you a hint! Listen in as Nick shares how he hopes to use the power of art to teach non-judgement, self-acceptance, and acceptance to society as a whole. How powerful is that?!
So friends, pop in your earbuds and settle in as Nick and I talk about the power of art, the importance of uncovering your “why,” and how he pursues non-judgement and self-acceptance through the practice of mindful creativity.

Bonus: "Stop Listening to What Other People Are Saying About You" with Jaymee Davis
This week’s bonus episode features Jaymee Davis - host of The Genuine Mom Club Podcast - whom you might remember from earlier this week when she joined me on the podcast and we talked about her journey through loneliness and anxiety and now what she does proactively each day to ground herself and seek connection within her community - both in-person and virtually! You can check out that episode here if you missed it.
So put in your earbuds, press play, and get ready for Jaymee to share with you why she no longer gives merit to the voices and opinions of others, which after all, is a lesson we could all take to heart as we strive to lead a purposeful, self-directed life!

"Understand That Willpower is Important But Only Goes So Far" with Nick Cruz Velleman
This week’s bonus episode features Nick Cruz Velleman of Sight and Insight who is a dear friend, artist, youtuber, teacher, and author. You may remember Nick from earlier this week when he joined me on the podcast and we discussed the role of art and creativity in our daily lives, the power of art to teach nonjudgement and self-acceptance, and finally we dreamed big with Nick as he shared his future hopes and dreams for himself and his business. You can check out that episode here if you missed it.
In today’s bonus episode Nick shares what advice he would give himself if he could go back and speak to himself from 10 years ago. And his advice focuses on two areas that we can all find a nugget of wisdom in. The first piece of advice is that while willpower is deeply important it will only get you so far, and the second piece of advice is to leave margins in your day...and ultimately in your life!
So, put in those earbuds, press play, and listen in while Nick shares with you the insights he’s learned from his past decade of life!
