Thank you for being the most generous and kind audience. It is a delight to share my experiences and story with you.  This summer, work towards feeling safe, healthy, and whole in your creative practice.

  • How To Blend Creativity & Motherhood (if you want to)

    09/05/2024 Duration: 01h03min

    This episode is SO precious (stay til the end to hear my whole heart MELT). I sat down with two of the most beautiful parents/artists I know and we talked about balancing, blending, and maintaining your whole self and your studio practice while also being a mother.  Hint: balance is a juggling act, everything comes back around, you are capable of SO much more than you imagine, and also you don't have to do anything at all but love yourself and love your kid(s).  Please let me know what comes up for you as you listen! You can always reach me at learn@emilyjeffords.com    Meet Cait and Skye! Caitlyn Zarate is my Program Manager and keeps Making Art Work and The Collective (and so much more) running smoothly so that I can be an artist and mother! Visit Caitlyn on Instagram.  Skye Como Miller is our Community Support Queen. If you've felt a warm glow from our community, emails, or social media, it probably had Skye's touch!

  • Can You Create Beauty From Trauma? With Vyana Novus

    02/05/2024 Duration: 01h34min

    Being human is hard. Let your creativity make it easier. Your creativity is boundless, your imagination is unyielding, and the weight of this world is unrelenting.   Vyana Novus joins us in this very tender and open discussion on creativity, trauma, beauty, and safety in this interview-episode. You will walk away feeling so deeply seen and reminded that pain is integral to our growth and often plays a part in the creation of good art. Vyana is one of my dearest friends and we talk like two people who have a deep understanding of one another and a lot of mutual admiration -- but you're also going to hear a lot of curiosity and vulnerability as we get into some deep topics.     TW: We discuss SA, ED, intimate partner abuse, and trauma. Nothing is described in any graphic detail but I want you to be aware in case you are looking for a purely light episode. I have 100 others you can listen to. However, this episode is BEAUTIFUL and full of safety and love.    Visit Vyana's site (it's gorgeous) and fol

  • Emily Is Painting! (and it's going GREAT. For real.)

    25/04/2024 Duration: 34min

    Hey there, friend! Welcome back to the Do It For The Process podcast – it's so great to have you here again. I've been pouring my heart into creating a fresh body of work in the studio and the painting process has taught me SO much -- yet again. Here's the thing I've realized: pleasure is the goal. Finding joy in the process is everything. Sometimes your own happiness can be the only goal -- in and out of the studio. Trying things that excite you and feel new can make the entire process come to life. I've learned to embrace imperfection, to savor every moment of creation without worrying about getting it just right. And you know what? It's been so liberating, especially when I start painting within my life rather than trying to carve studio time out of my life. Now I try to create in flow AND flow in and out of my studio as I'm led by desire. Even when that means I involve my little one in the creative process. It's honestly so fun to create and paint WITH him.   Perfection is boring. Let yourself create wh

They are available through March 21st!    Let’s get to the heart of the issue: You need to elevate your BRAND. Yep. You. You have a brand. I know… It's weird.  And also kind of fancy! Let's talk about what a brand is before we get all bristly and closed off. A brand is far more than a logo. It is far more than your website. It's not your icons, graphics, images, the tiny alligator on your shirt, the label inside of your coat…   Your brand is the feeling people experience when they come in contact with your work. How cool is that! Now, allllll the things mentioned above absolutely matter and help to convey your brand, but they are not the brand. >>>> You are in charge of bringing value to your work. Your work might be lovely and you are authentically sharing it with your audience, but if you’re not presenting it beautifully and effectively, they won’t have the chance to appreciate it. As you create

    Welcome back to the Do It For The Process Podcast! This episode is a little vulnerable and a sweet look inside of my dreams, goals, and hopes for 2024.  Remember, your dreams matter. They are the source for all your goals.  Work to only set goals over things you can control.

    22/11/2023 Duration: 37min

    Get the (beautiful and FREE) workbook that accompanies this podcast here: emilyjeffordslearn.com    The holiday season is full of energy; and selling your work during this season can be one of the most thrilling things of all...   While it is full of cheer and festivity, these few short weeks can be super intense & stressful for small business owners (creatives especially)! The pace of the holiday season is out of step with the rest of the year, and marketing seems to happen at 10x speed. To make your presence felt online, you have to be SO LOUD. The energy is high, the sales roll in, and the generous energy is flowing. It’s thrilling (and also, quite draining). Want to know the secret to a thriving Holiday season? I’ll tell you right up front. HAVE A PLAN. Not sure how to do that? Well, no worries, I do! Grab a pen, and let’s get to work! I know selling can feel uncomfortable sometimes. Trust me. But offering the beauty you create is an act of generosity. And this is the season of generosity. Remember, y

    31/08/2023 Duration: 29min

    MAKING art WORK is open but only through tonight! Fellow artist and maker, be honest… ☑ Have you spent years making artwork, expecting to reach that next level, while your revenue remains stagnant? ☑ Do you know you have good work, but feel like you don’t know how to talk about it? ☑ Are you tired of leaving money on the table because you don’t have the knowledge and tools to sell your work? ☑ Do you keep hearing other artists selling out their collections, but you are left scratching your head as to what actually goes into them? ☑ Are you in a season of burnout and have no idea how to reinvigorate that creative energy in you? I get it. Without the right tools and a clear roadmap, being a creative entrepreneur is isolating and lonely. You might feel like your ideal collectors are just out of reach or feel like you’re scraping by. You notice your business isn’t working, but you aren’t sure how to fix it or where to start! But it’s not your fault! No one has told you how to confidently share your work and buil
