The World Needs Creatives with Rachael Sardelich
The World Needs Creatives is hosted by Rachael Sardelich, Vedic Meditation Teacher and Consultant to Creatives. Rachael has spent over two decades working at the confluence of creativity and spirituality and now leads her clients to explore, germinate and birth their creative visions into the world. During this weekly podcast, Rachael shares wise and inspired conversations to expand our creative consciousness.
Join Rachael in a space where the deeper questions are always asked and learn exactly what has shaped the humans behind remarkable ideas, cultural movements and visionary art in all of its forms.
Within you’ll find stories on embracing darkness and finding wholeness, the blurred boundaries between human and nature, breaking limitations and building legacies, rich inner-landscapes that hold untapped potential, and prophecies that will open portals of possibility within you.
These conversations are regenerative moments of incubation, creation and renewal. They won’t ask you to sit still and play nice. They will awaken your senses, wildly inspire the muse within and remind you: the world needs what you’ve got.
