Empowered Artist Collective Podcast

By: Empowered Artist Collective
  • Summary

  • The Empowered Artist Collective Podcast will be one in which we have insightful conversations with fellow artists about all sorts of things that pertain to our personhood and our artistry. Join our community of women and non-binary artists seeking a thriving and sustainable career in the arts as we ask hard questions, sit with open-ended answers or perhaps no answers at all, share resources and hopefully expand the dialogue around all the aspects of our industry that so many are not talking about in an open forum.  Whether you are an actor, singer, dancer, performer, writer, director, creator, theater and tv/film lover... If you are someone who is curious about others’ artistic experiences, believe that being an artist is about more than just the auditions you book, think this industry is in need of change, and want to get a personal glance at what’s going on behind the curtain: this is the podcast for you! Let’s be in community together. Let’s support one another. Let’s make this journey a little less isolating and more inclusive.

  • 113. Reinventing Success for Yourself with Liz Kimball
    Apr 22 2025
    What if you redefined success as trying, wholeheartedly, for the things that matter most to you? In this deeply reflective episode, Jennifer talks to returning guest, Liz Kimball, who explores how her creative process has evolved since her previous episode (#24) and what it means to redefine success on your own terms. They unpack the impact of achievement culture on artists, the myth of external validation, and how our worth is not tied to performance. They share tools to combat the inner critic to make space for expansion, talk about building inner safety to create freely, explore ways to celebrate small wins without shame, and unpack how self-kindness is not just soft—it’s revolutionary. It is a powerful invitation to create from exactly where you are, to rewrite your definition of success, and to honor the process as the art itself. If you’ve ever felt trapped by “shoulds,” or questioned whether your work matters, this episode brings the language, tools, and presence to help you reclaim your power and reimagine your creative life. About Liz: Liz Kimball (MFA, CPC) is a creativity catalyst and transformational coach for visionary creators. She is dedicated to helping women and girls free their creative voices so that they can birth the great work of their lives. Liz's work focuses on catalyzing individual and collective change through the magic of creative process. Liz's work has been featured at Tedx, Oprah.com, The Guggenheim, The Female Quotient, and at universities and institutions throughout the country.
