We are all creating the stories of our lives each day. Sometimes it’s hard to believe in a happy ending when were in the middle of chaos – or to understand the transformation we are undergoing when we're being tested over and over again – but I believe we are all here to learn, grow, and discover more of who we are in this life and I want to help you do exactly that. Let’s uncover the meaning of our stories together. The stories we tell ourselves about our life matter – and only we have the power to edit, upgrade or re-write them altogether. Only we have the power to become the hero we want to be. Only we can change the narrative of the story we’re telling ourselves. If we’re sick of being the “girl who got dumped” or the “guy who lost his job” or the “villlan,” the “helper”, etc — what choice do we have? We get creative and we write a new story. As a bestselling author, I’ve learned the principals that make stories tick and I've taken many of my life stories and put them to paper. What I have learned is that stories have a lot to teach us about what matters in life; and that one of the most powerful things you can do to heal is to face your story head-on. To co-create the ending. To uncover the thread that holds the whole thing together. To become the hero you would want to see on the screen. I’ve taught many others how to do this and I want to share these insights with you, too. Everyone wants to make meaning of their story (me included) and it’s never too late. You can become a completely new person with a whole new story in just a few short years. So let’s go on this journey together. Come with me as we explore how to become our authentic selves and live our true stories. We’ll explore personal growth, self-help, psychology, spirituality, and so much more. It’s never too late to rewrite your story.

15 OCT 2024 · We think we know what it means to “be creative” but do we really? Or have we been subtly indoctrinated by a culture that so worships productivity and achievement that we have missed what creativity actually is, what it means, and why it matters? In this season of the podcast, I’ll ask those questions and more. I’ll find some answers, I’m sure, and leave others to a mystery I may never fully understand. I hope you’ll come along with me for the ride. In this week’s episode, I share two different approaches for getting unstuck and the second one might surprise you. If you’re feeling in the “muck” or like you could use a breakthrough, don’t miss this episode. Also, here’s a link to the whole poem I share in this episode: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/46706/aristotle Host: Ally Fallon // https://www.instagram.com/allyfallon/ // https://allisonfallon.comSee https://omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this season of the podcast, I’ll ask those questions and more. I’ll find some answers, I’m sure, and leave others to a mystery I may never fully understand. I hope you’ll come along with me for the ride. In this week’s episode, I talk about what happens in the middle of the creative process when it looks like what you hoped to create, you may never create. Hopelessness. Despair. Existential dread. It’s quite the uplifting episode. But seriously. I hope you enjoy it and I hope it makes you feel just a little less crazy if you’ve found yourself losing hope.

I hope you’ll come along with me for the ride. In today’s episode, I am talking about what role “miracles” plays in our creative work (creative work meaning: building a family, starting a business, creating community, solving problems) and reframe the idea of what a miracle is and what role we play in welcoming the miracle. If you’ve ever found yourself waiting for something spectacular to happen and feeling like it’s out of your hands, you don’t want to miss this episode.

24 SEP 2024 · We think we know what it means to “be creative” but do we really?

In this season of the podcast, I’ll ask those questions and more. I’ll find some answers, I’m sure, and leave others to a mystery I may never fully understand. I hope you’ll come along with me for the ride. In today’s episode, I talk to my husband Matt about a creative project he’s been working on for four years that didn’t hasn’t gone the way he wanted. We talk about the bizarre mix of money and creativity, what failure has to teach us about success and how knowing your “why” trumps figuring out “how” to bring your vision to life. If you’ve ever failed at something that mattered to you — or if you haven’t even tried because you worried about failing — you don’t want to miss this episode.

I hope you’ll come along with me for the ride. In today’s episode, I explore what it looks like to follow your impulses and share why I’m learning this is an essential element of creativity. “But what if my impulses are selfish? What if they are born from ego? What if they lead you down a dark path?” I’ll explore these questions and more. Whatever you call them — impulses, intuition, or that still, small voice — hearing and responding to that subtle knowing is one important key to creativity. Join me as I share my own experience of hearing and following my impulses.

In this season of the podcast, I’ll ask those questions and more. I’ll find some answers, I’m sure, and leave others to a mystery I may never fully understand. I hope you’ll come along with me for the ride. In today’s episode, I unpack the symbolism of the “blank page” and how when we set out to make something, we start with nothing. If creativity is about making something from nothing, then how we view emptiness, silence, boredom and the heavy feeling of “nothing to say” matters. If you’ve ever wanted to create something — a business, a family, a community, a way of life — but had no idea where to start, this episode is for you.

23 JUL 2024 · How do you know what your story is about? Mostly by wandering in circles around what it isn’t about. In this episode, I share more about a story I’m living in my life and show you my real-time process for digging out my controlling idea. Hint: I go through a huge lack of clarity before I find the one golden thread that holds it all together. The good news is that when you land on clarity in the story, you land on clarity in your spirit as well.
