In this episode, we dive deep into the creative state of mind with our guest, Caoimhe Keohane. We explore the intersection of mythology, nature, and creativity—unpacking how ancient folklore, the environment, and movement can fuel inspiration.

Caoimhe takes us on a journey from her nomadic childhood in Ireland and Canada to Australia and, finally, Scotland. She shares how reconnecting with Celtic mythology through books and art reignited her creativity and led her to her current work, blending environmentalism and storytelling. We talk about the magic of Scotland’s landscapes, the power of movement in unlocking creativity, and the philosophy of Alan Watts on finding joy in work.

Of course, we couldn’t resist diving into Loch Ness lore. Is there really a monster lurking in the depths, or is it something more mystical? Caoimhe shares her perspective on the loch's energy and the power of folklore in shaping our perceptions.

Along the way, we talk about overcoming creative blocks, the importance of movement and nature in sustaining creativity, and why taking risks (even if they seem scary) is essential for a fulfilling, creative life.
