Join prolific author and artist Lucy H. Pearce and her creative guests - writers, artists, creatrixes - for profound and practical conversations about what creative magic means to us. We'll reflect on what, how and why we create, what drives us...and what stops us in our tracks. We share honestly how we find the time and energy to make magic in the midst of life's challenges and why we keep on saying yes to our creativity.
Lucy is known for giving real and raw interviews, and now she shares this form of deep dive conversation with many of her favourite creative people.

Kat Shaw is a visual artist based in the UK who is known for her vibrant celebratory paintings of real, juicy naked female bodies.
Over the last 7 years, Kat has painted over 3000 glorious women into Goddesses, held many successful exhibitions and live shows, run enriching workshops and paints not only onto canvases, but also directly onto women’s bodies!
As an activist artist, Kat prides herself on dismantling the patriarchy, breaking society’s stereotypical views of beauty and challenging every negative paradigm that women have been drip fed since birth, instead, encouraging them to step into unapologetic empowerment.
Having made her name painting the glorious nude reality that is a woman’s body, self-worth, self-love and self-belief are at the centre of her art, rather than airbrushing, filtering, photoshopping and the “only one size fits all” approach to beauty.
Glorifying every single body shape, Kat challenges the images of perfection of the female form that are so rife in today’s culture.
Heads up this is a fabulously sweary episode with lots of talk about women’s bodies and nakedness.

How making art was a bridge to loving her body
