We thought we’d be back with a new season of Chasing Creative in 2022, but alas: it did not happen. Our lives are just too full right now with, well… life! We cannot, however, let the year go by without getting together to talk about books: our most favorite episode to record each season. So, we’ll dive in and talk about our reading wins this last year, our goals for next year, and what life *actually* looks like these days for both of us.

2021: Our Year in Books
lundi 27 décembre 2021 • Durée 01:20:12
Hi! It has been *an entire year* since we last appeared in your podcast feed.
We’re wading through Pandemic Year 2 just like everyone else, complete with all the day-to-day negotiations and risk calculations like everyone else. And also: a fourth baby for Ashley, a smattering of kids entering the public school system for both of us, and entire routines shifting overnight.
We gave ourselves a break and didn’t record a single thing together in all of 2021 – but it didn’t feel right to finish a year on the calendar without talking together about books. So let’s talk books!

S6 E8: Writing Our Novels
Épisode 8
lundi 3 février 2020 • Durée 58:32
We both spent 2019 getting serious about writing our novels. In this episode, we're hashing out all the details, from where we got our book ideas to how we're fitting writing into our daily lives. Listen in to hear more about our creative processes and what the future holds for our writing.
Join us in this conversation with author and kindred spirit Ashlee Cowles as she shares about how travel and parenthood have changed her creative process. Ashlee believes that “creativity is not something we can lose, even if it has to lie dormant sometimes,” and we wholeheartedly agree. Listen in to learn how she’s spreading support and encouragement for creative parents through her latest project, The Most Creative Thing.
Ashlee Cowles is the author of the award-winning novel, Beneath Wandering Stars, and its sequel, Below Northern Lights. Her YA gothic mystery, THE POPPY & THE ROSE, will be published in 2020.

S6 E6: 2019 in Books
Épisode 6
lundi 23 décembre 2019 • Durée 01:27:01
Do we normally try to keep our book talk to a minimum at the end of each episode? And do we normally keep our episodes under an hour? Yes and yes. But today, we have nearly an hour and a half of entirely book-focused conversation for you -- and we hope you love it as much as we loved recording it.
Take our listener survey! We’ve been producing this podcast since 2016, and a lot has changed since then. We’re constantly tweaking this podcast so that it works for our lives, but it’s important that Chasing Creative continues to be helpful to YOU. Our survey is short and sweet and will be open now through January 31st. We’d love to hear your thoughts, ideas, and feedback as we plan for the future of the podcast. Take it here.
Love the podcast and happy to see new episodes in your feed? Consider supporting us on Patreon. If everyone who listens gave $1 per month, we could cover our expenses and maybe even hire an editor. That would allow us to create more -- for ourselves and you!

S6 E5: Sarah Von Bargen on setting creative goals that actually make you happy
Épisode 5
lundi 2 décembre 2019 • Durée 44:20
Did you know that it actually takes between 12-265 days -- with the average being 65 days! -- to make a new habit stick? Sarah Von Bargen shared that statistic with us on the podcast, and we were blown away! Sarah is the mastermind behind yesandyes.org where she is a writer, coach, and educator who helps people spend their time, money, and energy on purpose. We had her on the podcast to discuss how to craft goals that actually matter to you, create habits that support those goals, and what the ebbs and flows of the self-employed and creative life look like for her.
Sarah also teaches courses that can help you change your habits in the New Year. You can find her raved-about Habit School, Bank Boost, and more over here.
Here’s the link to Sarah’s free private Facebook Group called “Money + Happy” where -- you guessed it! -- the community talks about how to spend their money in ways that make them actually happy.
This podcast is the one Abbie shared about self-care for the different Enneagram numbers.
We're welcoming returning guest Callie Feyen to the podcast! Join us as we talk about Callie's recent transition into full-time self-employment as a brave step toward making space for creative work.

S6 E3: Elise Cripe on having big creative dreams and making them happen
Épisode 3
lundi 7 octobre 2019 • Durée 39:14
We’re so glad to have Elise Cripe back on the podcast! We previously chatted with her on episode 4 of season 3, all about how she got to where she was creatively, and touched on taking creative breaks and her Get To Work Book business. Today, we wanted to have her on to talk about her first traditionally published book that releases tomorrow, October 8th, titled Big Dreams, Daily Joys, which is all about setting goals and making time for what matters, as well as what the ebbs and flows of her own creative life look like.
