Ep. 57 - The Power of Mindfulness as a Creative, Achieving Flow State & Battling Self-Doubt with Tatiana DeMaria

Tatiana DeMaria is a singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, record producer, and entrepreneur in cryptocurrency, NFTs, and Web3.

Tatiana joins Ruben to talk about dealing with self-doubt and fear as a creator, the important role artists have in this world, and how to find balance and flow in your creative process, even when you feel stuck.

She shines light on how making music brought healing into her life, what it’s like to have synesthesia as a musician, and the power of mindfulness in the creative process.

“Everyone who’s ever made anything and thought about it too hard has reached a point where they go, fuck, it was better two hours ago… Learning your let go point, I think, is important for all people creating anything.” – Tatiana DeMaria

Tatiana believes that it’s vital to have a vision for your life and really choose your life instead of accepting your circumstances. We need to be the leader of our life, act on our ideas, and continuously put ourselves and our talents out into the world.

 “Anything you want to do in life, you put it out there and get the data points. See how it’s being received and iterate… If you don’t put it out, you don’t get the progress, you don’t get the momentum.” – Tatiana DeMaria

Being vulnerable is one of the strongest positions you can be in. Consistently pushing your vulnerability and creativity will push you to make your biggest dreams coming true.

Remember, love is kindness in the company of courage.
