Your Creative Mind
Behind every book, play, and song is a person juggling self-doubt, deadlines, and the drive to create. On Your Creative Mind, Izolda Trakhtenberg talks with writers, artists, musicians, and creative professionals about how they create and how they manage the stress and anxiety that often come with creating. Izolda and her guests explore the unexplained mechanisms and personal experiences that shape creative artists, writers, and others.
Through candid interviews and practical insights, you’ll learn storytelling techniques, productivity practices for creative professionals, and strategies for overcoming perfectionism in writing, music, and art. Whether you’re searching for inspiration, tools to strengthen your resilience, or fresh ideas for balancing creativity and everything else in your life, this podcast is your guide to creating with courage, confidence, and joy.
A new feature of this show is a more introspective, yet universal, look at our inner workings.

WARNING. some of what you hear on today’s podcast episode is triggering. But, to paraphrase the movie Rob Roy, if they can bear to withstand it, I can bear to be witness. In this episode I talk about something horrific that I saw. And then I talk about some ways that we can put a stop in very practical ways, to testing on animals. We’re about to hit the year 2020. Isn’t it about time we live more harmoniously with the beans we share this planet with?
