18:26

It’s taken nearly 60 years but finally I’ve accepted my nature as an introverted person, delighted to be alone. I’m no longer furtive about or ashamed of it.

The Acorn 4 | Mourning Pages 11:20

4M ago11:20

Sometimes you keep circling back to things you’ve given up. This is true of ‘Morning Pages’ for me. I learned of them around 20 years ago by reading Julia Cameron’s The Artist’s Way.

The Acorn 3 | Becoming More You 10:58

When we reimagine ourselves or bring old imaginings into reality, and grow to feel proud rather than weird, we reinvent what life itself can be. Reinvention, paradoxically, means becoming more yourself.

Plot Twist Play 2 | Beginning at the Beginning 24:06

4M ago24:06

24:06

Can we really leave the past behind? Should we? Can the past, in fact, be changed? Talk therapy, going over and over the past, doesn’t work for everyone. But might it be beneficial for people who’ve learned after many years of life that they’re neurodivergent? And if so, how do we approach such reassessment? Support this podcast at — https://redcir…

Cymru Conversations 2 | Austerity in Wales & the UK 18:29

There should be a public inquiry into austerity, which has killed far more people than Covid has in the UK (around 250,000, though that’s likely an undercount. It’s 1 in every 278 people, compared to perhaps 1 in every 65 souls through austerity and other ‘levelling down’. 1 in 65! This episode is an excerpt from Levelling Down: Austerity in Wales,…

You don’t have to be insane, or French, or a child savant, to be an artist. You just have to enjoy playing with paper, colour, atmosphere, and concepts, and trust the small voice inside that tells you when to stop.
