Even when life feels like too much, showing up to create can be the thing that saves you. – Brandi  

This week on Colour Me Happy Podcast we sit down with artist and Canadian Artist Billie Rae Busby to talk about why creating—no matter the chaos of life—is essential to fuelling joy and balance. We dive into the transformative power of setting aside time for “art dates,” and how these moments of creative play often become catalysts for personal and professional breakthroughs. The conversation ends on a powerful reminder to advocate for yourself—because no one else will. This episode is an uplifting, real-world look at how art isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity.
