Episode 175: Creativity with Special Guest Maneva Gill

It's Not About Food Podcast with Laurelee Roark

Creativity is the outward manifestation of who we are as spiritual beings.

It is the magical ability to crest something out of nothing that is uniquely ours. It is the gift of being able to imagine, to dream, and then to make the dreams come true. Creative expression is essential to feeding our souls. It forces us to go beneath the obsession with food and weight. To access the part of ourselves that passionately hungers for self expression.
