Stay Sparked

In this episode we sit down with visionary painter Autumn Sky (@autumnskyeart, AutumnSkyArt.com) for a heartfelt conversation about creativity, courage, and trusting the process. 🎨 Autumn shares how art has been a guiding force since childhood, how she turned creativity into a livelihood without losing the magic, and why giving ourselves permission to create is some of the deepest healing work we can do. We explore: Art as both spiritual practice and career Perfectionism, productivity, and staying playful The “crunchy” parts of the creative process and what they teach us How creativity helps us walk through mystery, change, and big life pivots Autumn also talks about her retreats on the Sunshine Coast of BC and the next evolution of Heartwood Cove, an off-grid eco-retreat for art, healing, and deep reconnection. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re “good enough” to make art, or how to protect the soul of your creativity while building a life around it, this episode will feel like a loving, wise mirror.  ✨ If this conversation nourished you, please like, subscribe, and share it with a fellow creative. ✨☕This episode is sponsored by www.BecomeLucid.com  Lucid is a functional mushroom and nootropic brand designed to fuel mental clarity, focus, and long-term brain health.

In this special in-person episode of Stay Sparked, Betsy and John Halcyon team up for a live Hug Nation broadcast all about gratitude as a daily practice – even in hard times. Together we explore: ✨ Practical Woo & Sobriety How opening to “practical woo” helped John in early sobriety, and why being willing to admit “I don’t know what’s best for me” can change everything. 💧 Water as Medicine From water ceremonies to hurricanes and RV life, we talk about how easy access to running water is not a given—and how remembering that can radically deepen our gratitude. 💪 Gratitude as a Muscle Why gratitude gets stronger with repetition, how to build “gratitude muscles,” and how practiced gratitude naturally shifts our self-talk and conversations. 🧠 Complaining vs. Reframing What happens to our brains when we rant, and how regular gratitude practice helps us reframe challenges without bypassing our feelings. 🃏 Affirmations & Mind Vitamins Betsy introduces her Power Affirmation deck and a quick practice to feed your mind short, powerful “mind vitamins” instead of endless social media scrolling. 🎵 Song, Mantra & Flow State We talk about music, mantras, and the movie Soul—how singing and sound can bypass the thinking mind and drop us into a deeper spiritual awareness. (Yes, John sings a spontaneous gratitude song!) ✨ Stay Connected 📲 Instagram: @staysparked 🎧 Podcast: Stay Sparked – available wherever you listen ⭐ If this episode lit you up, please leave us a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts and share it with a friend who could use a spark.

In this episode of Stay Sparked, we dive into the often misunderstood world of meditation. If the word itself makes you feel like you’re “not doing it right,” you’re not alone. We’re breaking it down and lifting the pressure, exploring how meditation isn’t about silencing your mind — it’s about creating space to notice, feel, and reconnect. We share personal stories, unexpected approaches, and ways to bring mindfulness into everyday life (even if you can’t sit still). Whether you’re brand new to meditation or looking to deepen your practice, this conversation offers gentle encouragement and a spark of inspiration.
