About this podcast

Artists Rising

JennyRebecca Ronning

"The opposite of depression is EXPRESSION" - Dr. Edith Eger ARTISTS RISING is about RISING UP through the discovery and re-discovery of our creativity. It is about healing and transformation through the cultivation of creativity and through creating thoughts and emotions that will be the canvas, the foundation...of our masterpiece, our best life. I believe everyone is creative, we are born that way, but we forget, and we conform and get covered up. Creativity is a recovery process. It’s the road home we are all searching for. Stepping into the flow of creativity is stepping into healing, and it’s stepping into an encounter with the most sacred version of your truest self… it’s connecting with the divine and most powerful life force that exists. Created with community, storytelling and wholehearted artistic development in mind, singer-songwriter (and recovering classical musician) JennyRebecca Ronning, sits down with people who inspire her and teaches on topics she wished she would have known more about as a younger artist - specifically things we don't tend to learn in art schools and music conservatories like mental and emotional health, how to cultivate creativity and how to invite people along on your creative journey and turn your passion into a business or a community, if that is what you desire. No matter what stage of life you are in - whether you are a seasoned artist or just beginning to tap into your creativity - we all need reminding about how to step into that flow...how to realize that place as our home, and how to navigate the blocks and resistance that try to keep us disconnected. Welcome to ARTISTS RISING CO! Follow @artistsrisingco on instagram and facebook for more inspo and a community built to encourage and empower you to go forward pursuing your creative dreams with more confidence, resilience, and freedom to show up and do what we, as artists, do best - BE VULNERABLE, day after day! Let's do this!

Letting Go: Embracing Creativity Through Surrender

“Creativity is a recovery process. It’s the road home we are all searching for. Stepping into the flow of creativity is stepping into healing, and it’s stepping”

Imagine creativity as a river you can either fight against or flow with. In this episode of 'Artists Rising', JennyRebecca Winans Ronning dives into the theme of surrender and how it plays a crucial role in the creative process. She kicks off by introducing Songtober, a free songwriting challenge running throughout October, and invites everyone to jump in and let their creativity soar.

JennyRebecca shares her personal journey of using creativity as a recovery tool, illustrating how letting go can lead to profound healing and self-discovery. By surrendering to the creative flow, we can alleviate the pressure of perfection and allow our true selves to emerge. The episode encourages listeners to think of themselves as vessels for creativity, letting go of control and trusting the process. This approach not only makes the creative journey less daunting but also more fulfilling.

Tune in to learn how surrendering can transform your artistic endeavors and help you reconnect with your most authentic self.
