What if creativity isn’t about being artistic—but about hearing yourself more clearly?

In this episode, Stephanie sits down with Sarah Kelly Noderer, visionary artist, educator, and founder of Heartspace Gallery & Studio in Cold Spring Harbor, New York.

Sarah shares how grief, motherhood, and years of holding space for other people slowly pulled her away from her own creativity—and how finding her way back to art helped her reconnect with herself.

Together, they explore intuitive art, self-trust, inner knowing, and what happens when we stop trying to create, live, or choose in ways that look right to everyone else.

You’ll also hear:

• Why creativity has nothing to do with being “artistic”

• How a leap of faith led Sarah to open Heartspace

• Why feeling drained can be a sign that something no longer fits

• How even a few quiet minutes can help you hear what you already know

• The surprising story of an intuitive image, two grandchildren, and two pink flamingos

This conversation is for anyone who has ever felt disconnected from herself, unsure what comes next, or tired of forcing her way forward.

Sometimes the spaces that change us don’t look like healing spaces at first. Sometimes they look like an art class, a quiet morning, a studio, or a conversation that helps you remember what it feels like to be you.
