This week on Paige’s Pod, I’m joined by artist and entrepreneur Forrest Elliot for a deeply real conversation about creativity, reinvention, and building a life that actually feels aligned. We talk about everything from art school and career pivots to treating art like a business, trusting your gut, and learning how to become a friend to yourself. Forrest shares his journey from photography to painting, launching multiple creative ventures, and creating intentional spaces - like his upcoming retreat that help people reconnect with themselves and their creativity. If you’ve ever felt stuck, boxed in, or unsure what’s next…this one’s for you. We get into:
  • Creative pivots + starting over
  • Art as a business (without losing the soul)
  • Confidence, healing, and identity
  • Community + connection
  • Taking risks and trusting your intuition
Main takeaway:
Burn the box. Do the thing.
