Nancy Hillis is an abstract artist, Stanford trained existential psychiatrist, and author of the amazing book, The Artist Journey, which is also an online and offline program where she counsels artists in psychotherapy to overcome creative blocks.

We discuss finding freedom in structure and constraint, creating a safe and vulnerable space to allow ideas to flow, the importance of working consistently on your craft and embracing your ugly paintings, trusting yourself and taking risks, and being ok with having a job while building your art into a livelihood on the side.
