'Welcome to my podcast (there's a blog too!) on being creative, from that initial sparkle of the thought ‘I could’ to actually finishing it and getting your ‘art’ out there.
"I sometimes only seem to create when I have to create, under pressure or deadlines and then I moan about the rush. Ridiculous when I think about the fact I have chosen this creative life, or it has chosen me and I must follow my muse – often grumpily it seems! Or I do nothing and then feel guilty as I watch friends get with their own projects. Hence this podcast is about what techniques we can all use to get the work done and out there, no matter where you work full time as an actor, a choreographer or have a yearning to paint more over the weekends."

From City bond dealer to selling out stage sensation, Marysia Trembecka is an actress, musician and comic, creating and performing sell-out shows internationally from Australia to many Edinburgh Fringe sell-out runs. Her comedy creation, The Singing Psychic even has a game show version and appearing from the Brit Awards to live TV and radio, whilst her Queen Of The F*cking World sexual politics theatre show was awarded Arts Council England funding and is fiercely pro love and respect for all.

Her favourite press quote for the Singing Psychic is 'Totally bonkers (in a good way)' *****

For over a decade, she has brought joy to thousands of people with her witty, controversial and thought provoking shows that are both highly entertaining and emotional. Marysia has appeared in a number of films including the multi award-winning Sunday Dinner With The Morgans, which reached the semi-final nominations round for an Academy Award. She has performed at the official after party for The Brit Awards and been a Tedx speaker.

She is also a filmmaker, including a 23 episode documentary 'SONGS OF BREXIT' 'all the facts with song and no yelling' through her Best Show, Funny Women nominee comedy character THE SINGING PSYCHIC. Her album 'If You Can't Make Love, Make Coffee' she recorded with a live 8 piece band she put together for the project.

3. Start dreaming about what the next 3 months will look like and what you want to achieve

4. Whats holding you back from achieving your next 3 months goals, is it a lack of money, a plan, an untidy home or finances

So this week's new podcast 64 is all about getting into a healthy mindset about criticism of yourself as an artist or your art, whether you are a musician, filmmaker or visual artist. So try looking at Constructive Critiscism being Bloodwork,   Feedback being just facts.


Just like an athlete looks at stats and speed and daily notes on their progress so we can choose to take what is useful in the noves we are given and  implement changes in our creative work or practise more. We can also ignore what does not work or hurts us. Feedback is just facts, take the emotion out where you can.



It is  very easy as a creative to stop work or feeling hope upon getting negative feedback about your work. Press, reviewers and trolls can say things that  can really seem to hurt and the memory of what people to or about you and your work can stay with you forever. Worse it can stop you creating and trying new things as well as really affect your mental health.


Even super successful  creatives all have tales of a huge rejection  or bad press.  I once asked and will never forget Sir Derek Jacobi CBE  telling his tale of  how he never reads his press. (full details in the podcast) despite  being a founder member of the Royal National Theatre and winning several prestigious theatre awards, a  BAFTA and has twice been awarded a Laurence Olivier Award, a Tony Award two Primetime Emmy Awards for two Screen Actors Guild Awards


 It can be worse at the start of your career especially young press such as student reviewers who may be reviewing your work and trying to be clever. Also teachers can also have favourites so can not believe in you

However getting constructive feedback  from educated reviewers who understand the context of your work, people you respect in your own field and the wider world can really help you improve your own craft and your work. You can of course disagree with their opinions  and should especially  if it feels like your work is about something very different than they get. 


Some people will love your work, some will never get you, so it is a case of building an tribe around you you have faith in, but not in an Emperor's new clothes way where no one tells you what needs improving. The earlier you can,  the quicker you can soar in your work as we all need support, even if it is new work that people dont seem to get right now.


My programme ‘Get Your Art In Gear’ will be available in February 2022.  Get Your Art in Gear is a specialist program that blends the practical, financial and creative lessons you need to take your work to the next level.

Hence taking a course in something you are interested in, or learning all you can  from books, the web  on a subject or someone or by developing new skills in a certain area can make you feel fabulous and make you start making connections in new ways.


One way to declare someone a genius can be by their unusual ways of making connections  on subjects they know a lot about and creative  genius can certainly be applied to that. So the more you can look or know about something from lots of different perspectives and then making your choices, the more interesting and well rounded the work is. 


 Open minded creatives be it in science or art have a new often exciting fresh perspective  by knowing the existing points of views or 'rules' and then drilling into  them or making up their own or by contrasting them.

As a jazz musician I  learnt many many different scales and ways to get into them so that when any of us improvise we can pull creatively from an embedded bank of knowledge and don't just hit the same obvious notes. Other types of musicians may choose to have 5 years of being  fascinated by a certain type of music  before moving on or get focused how to play certain things much much better.


So this week's new podcast 63 is all about curiosity and how discovering the answers can be a really great way to feel happier, we all like learning the answers and unravelling mysteries. If there is too much uncertainty though we feel less happy.


So whether you are curious to learn about a new drum sound, new software, a certain type of literature, music, film or art made at a certain point or place  in time I can only encourage us all to go after what you are curious about.You will later find it influences your own work and your skill level in often indefinable, subtle ways.

Last week in the UK we all had to file our taxes and it made me think about all that money we can earn and sometimes wonder where it has all gone. 

So this week's podcast is about  one way I support my own life as a creative is to save money every month in a sinking fund/special bank account so that when I need to pay for research, exhibitions venues, fringe brochures or workshops  I already have money saved to pay for it.

 Yes COVID has certainly decimated most peoples earnings as creatives, I lost my 5 nights a week gigs and sometimes we dont have much spare cash.  However, even in normal times it is very easy to overspend in some areas of our lives such as entertainment, going out and then say we have no time or money to make our art.

It can be worse if you have a non creative job to pay your bills and it is easy to get into the mindset that you deserve a takeaway after a long day at non- dream work, non fulfilling work or have way too many drinks on a Friday eve.

So I decide before the month begins with my variable freelance income, once my basic bills are paid that I will save and invest into my own creativity before overspending on other ultimately less important to me areas. Even if it is £25 or £100 a month that gets tucked away for your art then you start taking yourself as a working creative more seriously. 

So maybe look at your spending last month and see where you could have instead  used that and saved it for a workshop, materials, going to a relevant networking event or pre production costs on your next show, album or a graphic artist for your next book.

I was reading about  the Nadal, Djokovic & Federer rivalry  and how they have all pushed each other to become better players as each of them are just such incredible tennis players.


Until Nadal won the Australian Open yesterday the three players had been stuck on all winning 20 Grand Slam titles each, Federer who is 40 has been there since 2018, Nadal (36) in 2021, Djokovic (35) in 2021.

What is fascinating is how they have all had to step up and improve their game to be able to ccmpete with each other.  I am sure knowing this is partly why Nadal managed to come back from 2 sets and 3 games down to then beating Medvedev yesterday,  knowing h was truly beating his historic rivals.


Of course in tennis one has to beat someone to win, in art winning is luckily not so focused about taking someone else down. 

So this week's podcast is all about how we can be inspired to improve by others in our field and in other fields, how it can help us focus on the small details that make us a winner and motivate us.


My programme ‘Get Your Art In Gear’ will be available by Feb 14 2022, I am currently recording all the audio for it. So each morning I am getting up 2 hours early and doing a focused stint of audio recording before my day commences.  Get Your Art in Gear is a specialist program that blends the practical, financial and creative lessons you need to take your work to the next level.

Highlights include sell-out Adelaide and Edinburgh Fringe shows, singing at the Royal Festival Hall in 23 different languages, as well as doing TEDx talks and corporate gigs, such as the Brit Awards Afterparty at the 02 as my ‘The Singing Psychic’ bio queen character.]]>589cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/new-years-resolutions-forgotten-instead-take-a-daily-action-step-towards-your-dreams-ep-60-love-your-creativity-and-make-money--48427344
We all set impossible tasks at a time when many of us are in cold dark January  and no Xmas sparkle to entertain ourselves with. Plus we are all in various savages of lockdown so if this is you definitely dont feel guilty.

When it comes to being a creative and working on your new show or book , it is equally hard to keep putting off doing the writing or editing work you need to do. Without external deadlines or people asking for your work January is an easy  month to feel despondent.


However my fix to that as a creative is taking daily action towards my goal. If you want to lose weight, whatever happened the day before, today and every day  you still need to get exercise in and eat well, ideally tracking your progress weekly. 

Becoming a great musician or writer requires consisten daily action. So my suggestion for my podcast this week is to forget  big goals and insane NY resolutions and decide every day to take a small step towards your dreams. 

Make a call to a venue or an editor, get up early and write for 30 mins, learn a new song a week. 


My programme ‘Get Your Art In Gear’ will be available by Feb 14 2022, I am currently recording all the audio for it. So each morning I am getting up 2 hours early and doing a focused stint of audio recording before my day commences.  Get Your Art in Gear is a specialist program that blends the practical, financial and creative lessons you need to take your work to the next level.



Aims of this podcast - Love Your Creativity & Make Money
This podcast is about being a working creative from thoughts on marketing, budget to what techniques we can all use to get the work done and out there, no matter where you work full time as an actor, a choreographer or have a yearning to paint more over the weekends.

Meaning thinking about how great we feel when we take positive action like work on our creative projects, take positive steps towards our goals, go to the gym, pick up your guitar, write that finance proposal for your next show. When we take positive action we feel much better after even if we did not want to initially go to the gym in the rain or practise when we could have just stayed in and watched Netflix.

Also the flip side is don't forget to remember how bad we feel when we do things that don't align with our goals ad dreams, whether it is a lack of action such as no gym or no working on your novel or script or whether it is choosing to slump in front of the TV or getting lost in hours of YouTube instead of taking time out to honour your dreams.

Thinking both before we take action and after we have or have not done something that 'don't forget to remember' means we can slowly align ourselves and our wishes against actions.
Change for all of us is a hard process so thoughts that break our behaviours and make us think before we do what we are about to do.

There is a real energy and focus you get given when you have a hard external deadline. I am planning to go again to the Cannes Film Festival in 2021, I have been going as an actress for years but there is so much prep to do.
I am using it to get scripts ready, finishing work I want done before I leave so I do not need to stress about it, plus even its got me back in the gym.

So choosing a hard external deadline from entering your work into a film, script or novel funding opportunity or competition makes us work in a more focused way. When I am writing new shows then I find having the deadline on a first showing deadline, or having to do all the tech , budgeting, artwork for new shows that may be touring you really only do it when you have to.
So pick the power of a hard deadline and let its magic work on you.

Highlights include sell-out Adelaide and Edinburgh Fringe shows, singing at the Royal Festival Hall in 23 different languages, as well as doing TEDx talks and corporate gigs, such as the Brit Awards Afterparty at the 02 as my ‘The Singing Psychic’ bio queen character.

My ‘THE SINGING PSYCHIC’ who ‘reads the songs in your heart’ also has a GAME SHOW version, and was a finalist in Best Show, Funny Women in 2016, and I have toured internationally since then.
I have also produced five webseries as the character including my 23 episode SONGS OF BREXIT webseries I made for the June 2016 EU Referendum, on the pros and cons of the EU, I started the web series singing The Clash’s ‘Should I Stay Or Should I Go Now’. It was very wll received due to the blend of education and entertainment, and I ended up on London Live and even a BBC2 Live Debate on the National Living Wage amongst other press of the back of that.


I also was awarded Arts Council funding for research on a solo show on how we are all judged by our sexuality, so as part of that, I interviewed people on the cutting edge of sexual politics. From this I then created another character ‘Queen Of The F*cking World’ which has also toured internationally from Glasgow WOFF film festival in the female perspective strand to sell-out London, Edinburgh and Adelaide runs. I sing and play the bass guitar and guitar in this show.

I am just reading Dr Edith Egel, she has two books The Gift and the Choice. She is a Holocaust survivor and is now 90, a great grandmother and spent many years as a therapist specialising in treating PTSD and survivors.

She talks about how you should never see yourself as a victim but as someone who was victimized. She argues that seeing yourself as a victim means you have lost power and it is very difficult to get strong again. However seeing yourself as victimized by a person or the environment gives you strength to start again and heal.

I do not subscribe to this idea that all great art comes from great tragedy but I do recognise that through our life experiences we can use our unique voices in our own creative waves to teach, talk, discuss, illuminate or inspire is a wonderful use of our pain or life experiences. So seeing yourself as having been victimised vs a victim according to Dr Eger gives you more power. I would also argue you can become a victor by standing up and healing as well

So whatever you are struggling with, appreciating that any creative project from filmmaking to novel writing will always have ‘pain’ - tough parts, periods where you cant find the motivation or belief to get through to the next section, helps.
Just think this is just a sensation..

So this was my podcast for this week.

Aims of this podcast - Love Your Creativity & Make Money
This podcast is about being a working creative from thoughts on marketing, budget to what techniques we can all use to get the work done and out there, no matter where you work full time as an actor, a choreographer or have a yearning to paint more over the weekends.

About me, Marysia Trembecka

I am at heart a storyteller and this has translated from the initial creation of work to being a performer, including film and theatre acting, writing and performing international touring comedy shows to MCing.

Highlights include sell-out Adelaide and Edinburgh Fringe shows, singing at the Royal Festival Hall in 23 different languages, as well as doing TEDx talks and corporate gigs, such as the Brit Awards Afterparty at the 02 as my ‘The Singing Psychic’ bio queen character.

My ‘THE SINGING PSYCHIC’ who ‘reads the songs in your heart’ also has a GAME SHOW version, and was a finalist in Best Show, Funny Women in 2016, and I have toured internationally since then.
I have also produced five webseries as the character including my 23 episode SONGS OF BREXIT webseries I made for the June 2016 EU Referendum, on the pros and cons of the EU, I started the web series singing The Clash’s ‘Should I Stay Or Should I Go Now’. It was very wll received due to the blend of education and entertainment, and I ended up on London Live and even a BBC2 Live Debate on the National Living Wage amongst other press of the back of that.


I also was awarded Arts Council funding for research on a solo show on how we are all judged by our sexuality, so as part of that, I interviewed people on the cutting edge of sexual politics. From this I then created another character ‘Queen Of The F*cking World’ which has also toured internationally from Glasgow WOFF film festival in the female perspective strand to sell-out London, Edinburgh and Adelaide runs. I sing and play the bass guitar and guitar in this show.

Did you know breathing out makes you lose fat ;) How small incremental daily changes will transform your life.

I watched a great Tedx talk from Ruben Meerman on how the body actually releases fat from your body when you are on an exercise plan.
The chemical formula for fat is C55 H104 06, so 55 carbon atoms, 104 hydrogen and 6 Oxygen. We lose 84% of our weight by breatjing out and 16% by the water we produce. Of course you cant just breathe more to lose fat you have to either exercise or be on a calorie deficit to get the fat into your blood cells for your body to convert them into Water or breath.
The issue was the chemist had lost 10kg by losing 85g a day and it made me think of the small incremental changes we can all make to become a different level of performer.
To practise for one week does not change much, for one month you may only notice a small difference but over a year or a decade that is how you become incredible at what you do.
So what small daily incremental habit can you add to your must do lists today

Productivity research shows that we should do just one project at a time but real life often does not allow that. Certainly as creatives we often have a lot of different projects, often in different art forms, all at different stages. Mnay of mine are stuck in what I call a creative drawer of death.

By first writing down a list of all your projects and what stage they are at on a white board or on paper then you can clearly see where you are at.

Then pick just one and get it to the next hurdle. It may be you need to then wait to get feedback on funding or collaborators in which case go to another project and get that one moving forward until it is time to come back to the first one to move it to the next hurdle.

Getting projects finished one by one is very motivating and satisfying especially if, like me, you have dozens of projects in various stages from draft one, edit 5 to work you have finished but then feel you want to explore it in a different medium.

#changetheworld #creativecareer #TheDip]]>329cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/46-acknowledging-the-the-dip-that-hard-part-of-a-creative-project-helps-you-move-through-it-get-it-finished--44798613
Somehow starting new creative projects or even new creative pursuits, it's so easy to start sometimes to go. ’Oh, this is the best idea ever. I'm going to make this and this and this’, and then about a week later, or a month later, or even, maybe a year later, you are like, why did I start this?

And when you're in the middle of that kind of crazy, middle dip section, and somehow though, your energy increases again, as you power towards the end.

I just reread Seth Godin who has a little book, The Dip, which is well worth a a gander if you've never read it. He talks about the dip, in terms of only pick projects, you know are worth really powering to the end because there will be a dip. There's always that initial enthusiasm and it's the hard part in the middle. Certainly for me getting to the end and through the dip is often... Well, the only reason I sometimes do get to the end of a project is because I have deadlines that are put in place often external ones like,’ oh, there's a theatre waiting and my show has to turn up.

I do know, I'm certainly not the only one who's done that. Willy Russell, the brilliant playwright, who wrote many amazing things, including Educating Rita had literally been paid to write, Educating Rita, and a few days before they were starting rehearsals. He still hadn't writtena note and he offered the money back to them and they're like, no, we've got a theater booked and we've got tickets sold for your new play, you'd better get to writing, so he sat in his room surrounded by books and out popped that brilliant brilliant play, which of course, then became a film Educating Rita.
I actually went to a talk of his on this and I was like, ’oh I'm not alone’. Well, at least people are much much more experienced and better than me, because he's such a great playwright, you know, this is not only me going, why did I start this?

So this is this week's podcast about if you are in the middle or towards the end of the project
somehow accepting that there is going to be a dip is is kind of helpful. I know I'm going to struggle at some point. I know there will be a place where I go- the arcs, too difficult to find. I can't work out what I'm doing. I can't find the time. All the reasons, you know, it's a bigger project than I envisaged.

Seth Godin does make the good point that make sure you really knowwhat you're starting because you need to power to the end.
I remember when I was doing my Singing Psychic character of finally developing it to the first
full one hour show. I was in a workshop designed deliberately so I had to turn up with some new work every week. And at that point, during a improv game the character of my Queen Of The F*cking World show. popped up, but I knew enough to say to her’ love, you're going to have to wait’
I had waited certainly long enough to get The Singing Psychic sorted

We really can't run more than one project at a time. I mean, you end up having to sometimes, if you're freelance with different projects for work. But in terms of your personal work, I think is very difficult.
I think you have to go in do one project as far as you can take it.
Then, breathe then, pick up the next one, then breathe, go back.

So whatever you're doing, just have some patience with yourself. If you're in the middle of a dip.
Just know, it's part of the process and you've just got to find ways, whether you are seducing yourself with chocolate or give yourself the carrot and stick at the end of the day of ‘ I’ll watch some TV after I've done my work for this’,

So wherever you are in your dip of your project, just know you're not alone but know it's part and parcel of the process and keep powering through.
So this was my podcast for this week.
’Love your creativity and make money’.

Aims of this podcast - Love Your Creativity & Make Money
This podcast is about being a working creative from thoughts on marketing, budget to what techniques we can all use to get the work done and out there, no matter where you work full time as an actor, a choreographer or have a yearning to paint more over the weekends.

About me, Marysia Trembecka

I am at heart a storyteller and this has translated from the initial creation of work to being a performer, including film and theatre acting, writing and performing international touring comedy shows to MCing.

Highlights include sell-out Adelaide and Edinburgh Fringe shows, singing at the Royal Festival Hall in 23 different languages, as well as doing TEDx talks and corporate gigs, such as the Brit Awards Afterparty at the 02 as my ‘The Singing Psychic’ bio queen character.

My ‘THE SINGING PSYCHIC’ who ‘reads the songs in your heart’ also has a GAME SHOW version, and was a finalist in Best Show, Funny Women in 2016, and I have toured internationally since then.
I have also produced five webseries as the character including my 23 episode SONGS OF BREXIT webseries I made for the June 2016 EU Referendum, on the pros and cons of the EU, I started the web series singing The Clash’s ‘Should I Stay Or Should I Go Now’. It was very wll received due to the blend of education and entertainment, and I ended up on London Live and even a BBC2 Live Debate on the National Living Wage amongst other press of the back of that.


I also was awarded Arts Council funding for research on a solo show on how we are all judged by our sexuality, so as part of that, I interviewed people on the cutting edge of sexual politics. From this I then created another character ‘Queen Of The F*cking World’ which has also toured internationally from Glasgow WOFF film festival in the female perspective strand to sell-out London, Edinburgh and Adelaide runs. I sing and play the bass guitar and guitar in this show.

#changetheworld #creativecareer #TheDip]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/44798613Thu, 13 May 2021 20:49:35 +0000Marysia TrembeckaAcknowledging the dip, just how hard that middle or near end part of a creative project, can really you help you move through it Somehow starting new creative projects or even new creative pursuits, it's so easy to start sometimes to go. ’Oh, this is...
Somehow starting new creative projects or even new creative pursuits, it's so easy to start sometimes to go. ’Oh, this is the best idea ever. I'm going to make this and this and this’, and then about a week later, or a month later, or even, maybe a year later, you are like, why did I start this?

And when you're in the middle of that kind of crazy, middle dip section, and somehow though, your energy increases again, as you power towards the end.

I just reread Seth Godin who has a little book, The Dip, which is well worth a a gander if you've never read it. He talks about the dip, in terms of only pick projects, you know are worth really powering to the end because there will be a dip. There's always that initial enthusiasm and it's the hard part in the middle. Certainly for me getting to the end and through the dip is often... Well, the only reason I sometimes do get to the end of a project is because I have deadlines that are put in place often external ones like,’ oh, there's a theatre waiting and my show has to turn up.

I do know, I'm certainly not the only one who's done that. Willy Russell, the brilliant playwright, who wrote many amazing things, including Educating Rita had literally been paid to write, Educating Rita, and a few days before they were starting rehearsals. He still hadn't writtena note and he offered the money back to them and they're like, no, we've got a theater booked and we've got tickets sold for your new play, you'd better get to writing, so he sat in his room surrounded by books and out popped that brilliant brilliant play, which of course, then became a film Educating Rita.
I actually went to a talk of his on this and I was like, ’oh I'm not alone’. Well, at least people are much much more experienced and better than me, because he's such a great playwright, you know, this is not only me going, why did I start this?

So this is this week's podcast about if you are in the middle or towards the end of the project
somehow accepting that there is going to be a dip is is kind of helpful. I know I'm going to struggle at some point. I know there will be a place where I go- the arcs, too difficult to find. I can't work out what I'm doing. I can't find the time. All the reasons, you know, it's a bigger project than I envisaged.

Seth Godin does make the good point that make sure you really knowwhat you're starting because you need to power to the end.
I remember when I was doing my Singing Psychic character of finally developing it to the first
full one hour show. I was in a workshop designed deliberately so I had to turn up with some new work every week. And at that point, during a improv game the character of my Queen Of The F*cking World show. popped up, but I knew enough to say to her’ love, you're going to have to wait’
I had waited certainly long enough to get The Singing Psychic sorted

We really can't run more than one project at a time. I mean, you end up having to sometimes, if you're freelance with different projects for work. But in terms of your personal work, I think is very difficult.
I think you have to go in do one project as far as you can take it.
Then, breathe then, pick up the next one, then breathe, go back.

So whatever you're doing, just have some patience with yourself. If you're in the middle of a dip.
Just know, it's part of the process and you've just got to find ways, whether you are seducing yourself with chocolate or give yourself the carrot and stick at the end of the day of ‘ I’ll watch some TV after I've done my work for this’,

So wherever you are in your dip of your project, just know you're not alone but know it's part and parcel of the process and keep powering through.
So this was my podcast for...]]>277cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/45-chose-to-be-strong-wrong--44665448
Being strong and wrong and choosing to say it's okay if this doesn't turn out exactly as I wanted to be, it is about I'm going to have a go and see,

My name is Marysia Trembecka and this is this week's ‘love your creativity and make money’ podcast.

You've got to be willing to go. Just going to have a go.
I am certainly not the only person who advocates this being strong and wrong stuff.
There’s a really famous recounting by Herbie Hancock, he was playing with Miles Davis, one night live and he said I played a note that was so wrong. It was just, it was just horrendous, it was nowhere near any associated key, it made no musical sense at all to what we were doing.
And Miles Davis just looked at him as if to say ‘I hear you man’ and then Miles took that really wrong note and made it a right note, he wove that note in and out in patterns and made it a thing and Herbie Hancock.later referred to it as been willing to have the extra butter,that is willing to be wrong and seeing where your life can go.

JK Rowling of Harry Potter authorship stardom in her Harvard Commencement address, she said
that when she was writing Harry Potter- ‘penniless, In depression, because her mother had died, having come out of abusive relationship, being on her own on benefits with a young daughter, she was writing and she said by every standard, I was the greatest failure I knew and it's okay to fail, because when we're trying to create something you never know,

JK Rowling, then sent the first Harry Potter book after something like,18 Publishers that then rejected her. So the chairman of Bloomsbury actually got his daughter to read the first chapter of Harry.
Potter and it was only because she said, ‘I want to read the next chapter’ that they even decided to publish it. But even when they went and published that first Harry Potter, the chairman of Bloomsbury said, to JK Rowling, you need to go and get another job because you're never going to make any money, enough money to live. as a children's author. Now we all know
what happens. It required her to just go down a path of creativity of the things she wanted to make. Get it finished and be willing to keep on going and keep on pushing out, being strong and wrong because you need the faith.

I don't know what you're trying to be strong and wrong about right now.
It's that ‘perfect is the enemy of good’ thing
but whatever it is that you're trying to make or trying to move forward whether it's a half done project or something that you're finished.
So, pick something where you're going, ‘I'm willing to really strong and really wrong’ and have a play.
That's my take of the week. So pick a project, it doesn't matter whether it is at the end of the beginning of the middle of something, it doesn't matter, just get it to the next hurdle. And then the next, and the next and be prepared to be strong and wrong.

So wherever you are, be strong and fabulously wrong!.

Clip of my Londontown track - Andrew Hyde’s remix at the beginning and end338cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/44-there-is-no-hack-to-creativity--44563634This week’s podcast is on how you can’t hack creativity.

There's no quick fix to honing a film or a song or a a novel that actually has real value to yourself and to others.
This idea that we can hack everything, ‘how to hack becoming famous’ etc. Yes, you could become Instagram fabulous. And if you are brilliant, well done.
But actually the creative stuff, it takes time. You need to hone your skills.

Even if you have the most amazing idea for Say,a Song or a film script,
you still have to sit there and do the work to get it onto the paper or on to the stage and hone your skills as you go.

Accepting the fact that you can't hack a creative life, you might be able to have one brilliant idea that flies
but then you've got to come up with the next and the next, and we all know that this… some people so often just see the ‘oh, you know, they released the first novel and it just stormed it and it was in the bestseller list’. However we all know the work that's gone behind editing, finding an editor, writing it,
making the adjustments, you know, dealing with the facts. eg There's some real problems going on with chapter 10, or whatever.

So, This is a call out for all of us including myself to basically just settle down.
No, I can't hack it. I know enough, I've made enough shows over the last,what 20 years of making my own work be it writing, writing songs, writing books, writing shows, I've made web series and films, a documentary.
Just settle down. Know it's a process.
You're not always going to want to turn up for your life and your work every day.
That's just natural. But every day,
Choose Yourself.
So every day take a step forward in terms of honing,your craft and every day take a step forward in building a better creative career be it networking, going to something, seeing some work.

There's no hack to having a full creative life sure, people might love you for doing a particular show.
Barry Humphries, the creator behind Dame Edna, (a friend of mine has followed him for literally decades) and he said, Dame Edna is probably the 27th character that Barry Humphries came up with and that's the one everybody wants and he always introduces new characters and then he does these tours and introduces the new character of the beginning of the run. However by the time he's finished at all, there's more Dame,
Edna in still and those new characters get faded to smaller sections, because everyone loves Dame Edna so much. That don't just stop Barry Humphries from keep on performing and creating, absolutely not.
whatever he does he gets better at it.
I couldn't have made my Queen Of The F*cking World show without the thousands of hours of me being The Singing Psychic improvising on stage,

I can say that now only after the fact of my tens of thousands of hours on stage across the world, in lots of different environments, improvising, working a room, my audience understanding undoubtedly makes me a much performer. My singing now versus 20 years ago has to be better, how can it not be? Unless I never practiced or took lessons.
We don't always see the incremental growth, our growth, so you can't hack creativity or rather you can't hack a creative life.

This week’s Love Your Creativity And Make Money podcast is about using anger in a positive way, whether it is anger at yourself for not following through or being angry at what is happening in the world around you either in your own environment or in the world at large.

I recorded this the day after George Chauvin has been found guilty of the murder of George Floyd in the US, I doubt anyone knowing that George Floyd was killed by the police officer with a knee on his neck over 9 long minutes with bystanders yelling for the police to stop, cannot not be angry. However we can choose to use that anger by doing something about it, taking action, demonstrating, making creative work about the racism in the US and elsewhere, perhaps setting up local community help centres, whatever the right action looks like for you.

Being angry throughout life is not good, but turning the focus of feeling such anger at external circumstances and shift it to focus on what you need to change in your life, what actions you know you need to make to make a difference, that has power.

Anger also works in more intimate circumstances, where you feel you are letting yourself down or refuse to get drawn into another similar situation.
Questions like
What have I had enough of?
How can I shift my anger and my frustration to create a better world for myself and those aroud me
What actions can I take so I don’t ever have to experience this again.
What have I finally said enough and what next step action must I take?

This anger as a positive driver is a great way to take such strong energy and turn it from the negative, including violence or suppression and use it to encourage and motivate you.

Dr Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela took their anger at the way their worlds were and fought using words, peaceful actions but they were angry enough to stand up to say no and keep saying no. They changed their worlds.

Read Maya Angelou’s Still I Rise to remind you to keep on rising.

Eminen the rapper in his 8 Miles movie is a great example of using his clever words to ‘fight’, to not get drawn into hopelessness but to keep getting back up. To rap that intelligently, with clarity took years of practice.

The basketball player Michael Jordan was famous for his anger, opposing teams were taught to never get him angry by trashtalk on the court as he would suddenly pull off a super human move and seem to fly. Sure he also trained ferociously and focused but his will to do the work no matter what is incredible.

Even as an artiste or creative if you are not practicing, showing up, getting that project finished then use anger to get you going. Where have you had enough and what are you going to do about it?

Try it and let me know how it works out

Being angry throughout life is not good, but turning the focus of feeling such anger at external circumstances and shift it to focus on what you need to change in your life, what actions you know you need to make to make a difference, that has power.

Anger also works in more intimate circumstances, where you feel you are letting yourself down or refuse to get drawn into another similar situation.
Questions like
What have I had enough of?
How can I shift my anger and my frustration to create a better world for myself and those aroud me
What actions can I take so I don’t ever have to experience this again.
What have I finally said enough and what next step action must I take?

This anger as a positive driver is a great way to take such strong energy and turn it from the negative, including violence or suppression and use it to encourage and motivate you.

Dr Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela took their anger at the way their worlds were and fought using words, peaceful actions but they were angry enough to stand up to say no and keep saying no. They changed their worlds.

Read Maya Angelou’s Still I Rise to remind you to keep on rising.

Eminen the rapper in his 8 Miles movie is a great example of using his clever words to ‘fight’, to not get drawn into hopelessness but to keep getting back up. To rap that intelligently, with clarity took years of practice.

The basketball player Michael Jordan was famous for his anger, opposing teams were taught to never get him angry by trashtalk on the court as he would suddenly pull off a super human move and seem to fly. Sure he also trained ferociously and focused but his will to do the work no matter what is incredible.

Even as an artiste or creative if you are not practicing, showing up, getting that project finished then use anger to get you going. Where have you had enough and what are you going to do about it?

Make a list of all the habits and behaviours that you think are getting in the way of what you want.

Have you got financial systems in place to support your life, as financially stable and successful working creative? Are you ensuring that the money you have coming in is being used wisely?

When you have systems in place so you know where you are at, you feel in control.
Where you know you have money put away for projects, and the tax saved for the coming year, you can feel abundant and creatives’ who are joyous and feel abundant I believe are freer to dream and create from what they want to say, not out of fear.

Knowing you have covered your rent or bills this month mean you can then be open to the possibilities of time, focus and energy on your creative goals.

This mythology of broke creatives is often because they haven’t been trained to look at their art from a business perspective and how to fund their dreams.

Whatever your dreams of your next creative project: a book, a film, an album they need money to fund them, even if it is just being able to take the time out to get them moving on and not have to do 17 freelance side jobs to pay all your bills. Most creatives including myself, have suddenly had to take on extra jobs to get through certain periods of study or lack of work, but planning to save as you go, so you can take the time out to get your projects funded and out the door is vital. We all have had problems where we are looking how we can meet our bills, future expenses or indeed even our rent one month.

Having a sense of control, knowing where you are financially, what taxes you have to pay, knowing upcoming expenses and due income, planning (not just hoping) for your and possibly your family’s future as well as making your dreams happen is part of being grown up and serious about your long term career in art.

I have various systems I have put in place, financial routines, daily habits that all support my dreams so when I go ‘I have a dream’ I have processes and a runway to start making it happen. Finances are one of the pillars to that.

Do you have financial system, financial structures, financial routines in place to support your career as a creative?
Do you put money away for tax whenever income comes in??
Are you aware where you could be more tax efficient?
Do you feel when you look at the financial aspect of your career as a creative , whether you are just starting out, a part time creative or indeed a full time one, that you know where you are at?
Are there certain business expenses you need that you could buy now before the tax years ends to help you become more tax efficient?
Where do you feel you need to learn more about taxes, tax reliefs, legitimate expenses.
Do you know the tax bands, so how much you can earn before paying basic rate tax?
Can you work out now what your current tax liability is and ensure it is saved in a special account, or start saving for it?


We are in the UK tax year end 5th April, and whilst you can look at your taxes after the tax return has finished, there are steps you can do within the tax year that are helpful for your routines, mental health and the feeling of some kind of control.

You can be really clear on what is due approximately, where you could be more tax efficient, the use of any tax breaks or tax relief which you can use within the tax year itself, for example pension contributions where the government will give tax relief breaks (up to 45% in the UK)


I am an ex banker, I studied business, I used to yell ‘buy’ and ‘sell’ in the multi-millions on a trading floor in government bonds so I do have a different relationship to money and maths than some creatives. But we all have to challenge ourselves and keep reminding ourselves that we can make our creativity pay, helped by having proper systems in place.

As creatives we are often brilliant at experiencing and retelling the joy in the moment but there are many very successful people who have made their millions and, due to their lack of financial focus, skillset or mismanagement of funds by themselves or their managers have lost it all. From Mike Tyson, to the wonderful actor Wesley Snipes (Blade) who spent two and a half years in prison as he neglected to file $15 million of income, to the amazing Italian film director Federico Fellino who bought a Roman house for himself and his wife off the proceeds of his masterpiece La Dolce Vita, and later had to sell it to cover unpaid taxes.


The solution is putting easy, workable systems in place so you are ready, on top and clear on next steps. Just like a ballerina practising a pirouette or a musician focusing on the hard bit of a piece of music, you go in and start systems’ that you work, hone and help you have financial clarity at all stages of your creative career.

Get ready with your systems so when you hit the next levels’ of wealth, those moments when opportunity come in you can grab them and take full advantage of the financial benefits as well. You already then will have the systems and knowledge enough not to make bad decisions. Finance is important even if we don’t want it to be.


I understand we are still, at time of writing, in the middle of lockdown when many of us, including me lost most of not all of our work but this does not give you the excuse to not look at the real facts and figures of your career, especially on the financial side and the next year ahead projections. The more you keep an eye on it, the quicker you are to see issues, where you need to lean down, quickly find extra work and ways to make projects work if funding is less than you had already planned.

Having a plan, even when you feel out of control massively decreases stress.

So maybe this Easter , when we are not all clubbing, gigging, flying to see friends, you can choose to give yourself the gift of financial control. Even a couple hours to get some rough clarity on annual numbers such as income help.

It is your call on how detailed you want to be but just income vs expenditure this month or this tax year will give you clarity, seeing where you can tighten things up, where you can see an issue you need to address such as a planned project with rising costs against a diminished budget for example.

I am also looking at this financial aspect for creatives as I am doing a last edit on my programme on Getting Your Art In Gear which is going to include at least 8 financial strategies and processes to get to financial peace and stability as a creative, no matter what your income level is. Processes to save so you can afford to pay for what you consider to be the important things in your life, creatively or otherwise. To be able to prepay the venue you need to hire, to fly to the workshop you want to attend, to fund the people you need on board to get your film or album finished, to get yourself from creating on the kitchen table as we all are now, to taking your creativity to the next level up.

This week’s podcast looks at the financial processes we can put in place to support...
Have you got financial systems in place to support your life, as financially stable and successful working creative? Are you ensuring that the money you have coming in is being used wisely?

Try each morning asking yourself what did I ‘win at’ yesterday?

Often they are little tiny steps towards getting big goals done.
It could be did you eat in line with your health and nutrition goals, did you go for a walk or a run, do some practice? Finally get a task that was hanging over your head?

As quoted by Power Of Habit by Charles Duhigg, there was a Peruvian study on saving and it demonstrated that focusing on your small wins vs long term 10 year goals actually creates better results.

It certainly helps me rather than focusing on what I didn’t get done..

Highlights include sell-out Adelaide and Edinburgh Fringe shows, singing at the Royal Festival Hall in 23 different languages, as well as doing TEDx talks and corporate gigs, such as the Brit Awards Afterparty at the 02 as my ‘The Singing Psychic’ bio queen character.

My ‘THE SINGING PSYCHIC’ who ‘reads the songs in your heart’ also has a GAME SHOW version, and was a finalist in Best Show, Funny Women in 2016, and I have toured internationally since then.
I have also produced five webseries as the character including my 23 episode SONGS OF BREXIT webseries I made for the June 2016 EU Referendum, on the pros and cons of the EU, I started the web series singing The Clash’s ‘Should I Stay Or Should I Go Now’. It was very wll received due to the blend of education and entertainment, and I ended up on London Live and even a BBC2 Live Debate on the National Living Wage amongst other press of the back of that.


I also was awarded Arts Council funding for research on a solo show on how we are all judged by our sexuality, so as part of that, I interviewed people on the cutting edge of sexual politics. From this I then created another character ‘Queen Of The F*cking World’ which has also toured internationally from Glasgow WOFF film festival in the female perspective strand to sell-out London, Edinburgh and Adelaide runs. I sing and play the bass guitar and guitar in this show.

My film acting credits can be found on IMDB and indeed my projects are on my media gallery

Try each morning asking yourself what...
Try each morning asking yourself what did I ‘win at’ yesterday?

Often they are little tiny steps towards getting big goals done.
It could be did you eat in line with your health and nutrition goals, did you go for a walk or a run, do some practice? Finally get a task that was hanging over your head?

As quoted by Power Of Habit by Charles Duhigg, there was a Peruvian study on saving and it demonstrated that focusing on your small wins vs long term 10 year goals actually creates better results.

It certainly helps me rather than focusing on what I didn’t get done..

However I can choose joy and appreciation in doing my list. I can enjoy the process of the tasks I am doing today as opposed to seeing it as some great austerity or getting super stressed.

After I had this realisation of choosing to do all the tasks I have to do with joy and appreciation, to the very best of my ability, I then put on a song and danced round my lounge like a crazy person. I played the same song a few times and busted various moves from ballet, street, street walker, dad dancing. I had a delicious time ;)

Getting back into my body really helps my mood and gets me out of my head.
I did, last summer, a podcast episode – 6 ‘Junk Or Joy? You Choose. A 100 day challenge to transforming your actions, thoughts and headspace”

You might want to have a listen back as I got some great feedback and it helped me to constantly be conscious of kicking out the negative thoughts and replace them with being present in my life, my environment and aware of the things I do have to appreciate.

Mental health is such an issue especially at present but it really helps can in the moment stop and refocus from circular negativity to a new neutral or happy thought.

I suggest finding a song you love and dance to it fiercely to get back into your body, it allows your brain to have a rest and it elevates your mood to then reset your day.

Physically just spend 5 mins to get into your body - box, run, walk, dance.. Then pick up your next task and get it done.

I did a podcast interview back in 2014 with Paul Clayton

If you want some of the highlights go back to last week’s episode but it is a very inspiring interview from someone who has been a very successful working creative over many decades.

He also quotes Anita Dobson, talking about how she did not call herself an actor til she had a year earning only as an actor.

I know Paul Clayton not just from his many many TV and film appearances (Ali G Indahouse, Peep Show, Him and Her, The Queen and he is now deceased in Hollyoaks) but also he was the Chair of the Actors Centre and in January 2014 he played my husband in the multi award winning Sunday Dinner With The Morgans
He has a lifetime of knowledge about the acting industry and at a time when he found his work was slacking off, he set up his own company doing corporate work as an actor and wrote a great book about it.


This was first released on my original Love Your Creativity podcast in 2014.
Blog post about the interview https://loveyourcreativity.com/2014/04/23/how-to-book-auditions-this-is-who-i-am-would-you-like-it-paul-clayton-on-auditions-making-money-as-an-actor/

Some of the advice added here from Paul Clayton includes
‘I think I'm quite resigned about it now
because I think there comes the stage in your life where
and this is probably to do with you developing
as a person and perhaps there were elements of me and
late development - certainly in relationship terms,
you know, I didn't really settle down with anybody til I was nearly 40 and that did coincide,
I think with an awareness of what you are as a person.
Listen, I know that as a young actor I would walk into a room and I didn't have confidence problems.
I might have been nervous but don't think that would necessarily come across but I would go into the room thinking. I know I'm a very good actor. What would you like me to be?

I don't think that works. I think you have to go in there saying this is what I am.
Would you like it?

I am the best Paul Clayton there is, I think they'll be some people breathing a sigh of relief that I'm the only Paul Clayton there is but I'm not bothered if you don't want Paul Clayton, obviously, there are some things that I would love to do, but that I am not right for.
So it's not that I'm not good. It's that I'm not right and you know.

Last week I was waiting for a voiceover and I don't know what it was .
My agent ‘are you free on this day, it is a really big one.
It's a really nice one’. I didn't know what it was and then on Thursday morning then ’They've gone the other way’, so I didn't know what it was.
They've gone the other way because something they heard in that person's voice made them make that choice. Because what wins people over is you the person.
That's what we bring into acting and and there's some people mistake this with typecasting
but you bring a unique brand to your work that is you and possibly a lot of our life is finding out who we are and then when we settle into a knowledge of that, we sort of know
what we're selling really.”

'“He had a saying which was every day do one thing.
That may result in work and then get on with being who you are because who you are is what will get you the work and I know having directed a lot in my 30s in rep companies.
So sitting on the other side of the table and having whole days of people coming in, you can see desperation.
You can, you can smell it and it's not nice.
You have that job. You have the job until you open the door.
And then when you step in the room, most of what you're doing is taking you away from the job unless you're careful.
So it's working about what you need. If you go and think I’ve got to shine in there. If you're not shining outside, you know, you're not going to do it.”

because I think there comes the stage in your life where
and this is probably to do with you developing
as a person and perhaps there were elements of me and
late development - certainly in relationship terms,
you know, I didn't really settle down with anybody til I was nearly 40 and that did coincide,
I think with an awareness of what you are as a person.
Listen, I know that as a young actor I would walk into a room and I didn't have confidence problems.
I might have been nervous but don't think that would necessarily come across but I would go into the room thinking. I know I'm a very good actor. What would you like me to be?

I don't think that works. I think you have to go in there saying this is what I am.
Would you like it?

I am the best Paul Clayton there is, I think they'll be some people breathing a sigh of relief that I'm the only Paul Clayton there is but I'm not bothered if you don't want Paul Clayton, obviously, there are some things that I would love to do, but that I am not right for.
So it's not that I'm not good. It's that I'm not right and you know.

Last week I was waiting for a voiceover and I don't know what it was .
My agent ‘are you free on this day, it is a really big one.
It's a really nice one’. I didn't know what it was and then on Thursday morning then ’They've gone the other way’, so I didn't know what it was.
They've gone the other way because something they heard in that person's voice made them make that choice. Because what wins people over is you the person.
That's what we bring into acting and and there's some people mistake this with typecasting
but you bring a unique brand to your work that is you and possibly a lot of our life is finding out who we are and then when we settle into a knowledge of that, we sort of know
what we're selling really.”

I have series of savings pots to financially invest in my creativity and helps with my mindset I am a freelancer so my income is always irregular.
As well as investing time in my creative career in terms of the organising, practising my art forms, working with others on their shows, getting new work, I also keep on developing my craft and saving money for myself.


As per podcast episode 31 I look at whats due to be paid to me, and my outgoings for the month ahead before the month starts.
I fund and finance my own productions

Light version – one saving pot call it ‘my art’ and put money in every month even if its just a small amount
Whether you are making a film, creating a show, working on a book and a media campaign to go with it, you need cash to help.
From venue fees, consultant fees, to production and research needs money does help the artists world go round.

I have a ‘gigs’ pot. I save into it every month, and much more when I know I have big expenses to come. For example when I knew I was going to gig in Australia and my ticket sales would not get received til months after I came back, I worked out and started saving. Living in Australia for 6 weeks and of course the flights, accommodation, travel food and other costs. The gigs were in February and March – I started saving in the previous September so I was not stressed about paying my bills in London whilst working in Australia. Nor did I come back to huge overdrafts or bills I could not pay.

My ‘Future tech’ pot is for future technology, a new phone, laptop, music and tech equipment for future and better versions and upgrades for software,
When I drain down a pot by pulling cash out of it eg buying a new phone or computer I then go back to filling it back up. If I am saving for larger purchases eg a new laptopn then I might add £500 a month in there til I have got the cash to buy what I want

My ‘Dues & subscriptions’ pot – I put a monthly amount in for annual fees from domains and web hosting to my annual acting Spotlight UK casting directory fee,. So when the direct debit comes out of my bank I already have money in my dues and subscriptions pot to just move over and it does not overly effect that months budget as I have already saved for it

This way I know that what I want to do say the Edinburgh Fringe and have cash waiting to go to pay fringe fees.
It allows me flexibility and choices, mental freedom too.

3 versions you can try:
- Light version one pot – all artistic money
- Marysia version- with various named pots
- FULL on version – read or listem to Dave Ramsey, ‘Total Money Makeover’ all about take control of yourself financially. where you literally use an envelope system to even set how much money you are spending on food budget that month.


Having money in the bank to support your creative career is important and gives you choices and a feeling of control on months when you have less money coming in. You can choose to see work, research, do a workshop, attend a festival that you like the idea of or hire collaborators.

Putting creative plans into action can often include hiring people and spaces, if you already have some of the money pre saved it helps you choose.

Aims of this podcast - Love Your Creativity & Make Money
This podcast is about being a working creative from thoughts on marketing, budget to what techniques we can all use to get the work done and out there, no matter where you work full time as an actor, a choreographer or have a yearning to paint more over the weekends.
The book on mental, practical and financial tips on ‘getting your art in gear’ is being launched soon.

About me, Marysia Trembecka

I am at heart a storyteller and this has translated from the initial creation of work to being a performer, including film and theatre acting, writing and performing international touring comedy shows to MCing.

Highlights include sell-out Adelaide and Edinburgh Fringe shows, singing at the Royal Festival Hall in 23 different languages, as well as doing TEDx talks and corporate gigs, such as the Brit Awards Afterparty at the 02 as my ‘The Singing Psychic’ bio queen character.

My ‘THE SINGING PSYCHIC’ who ‘reads the songs in your heart’ also has a GAME SHOW version, and was a finalist in Best Show, Funny Women in 2016, and I have toured internationally since then.
I have also produced five webseries as the character including my 23 episode SONGS OF BREXIT webseries I made for the June 2016 EU Referendum, on the pros and cons of the EU, I started the web series singing The Clash’s ‘Should I Stay Or Should I Go Now’. It was very wll received due to the blend of education and entertainment, and I ended up on London Live and even a BBC2 Live Debate on the National Living Wage amongst other press of the back of that.


I also was awarded Arts Council funding for research on a solo show on how we are all judged by our sexuality, so as part of that, I interviewed people on the cutting edge of sexual politics. From this I then created another character ‘Queen Of The F*cking World’ which has also toured internationally from Glasgow WOFF film festival in the female perspective strand to sell-out London, Edinburgh and Adelaide runs. I sing and play the bass guitar and guitar in this show.

Ask yourself what do you need to do to hone your skills, talents, to be ready to take on an amazing opportunity when they come.


This weeks podcast is inspired by the phrase I was born ready and Rege-Jean Paul’s appearance on Saturday Night Live. The actor who has seen a sudden rise to fame after his steamy turn as the Duke Of Hastings in Bridgerton used this once in a lifetime opportunity to show off his comedic skills and also sang.

Talk about an actor grabbing their moment and showing how born ready they are.. . ‘Born Ready’ is also echoed as the actor in character as the Duke saying he was ‘born ready’ ( Bridgerton Episode 3 5mins 40 secs). Rege-Jean in his opening SNL monologue noted he has been in Roots and also played a high powered lawyer but he completely used this star turn as a way to make other see his greater potential. The inspired ‘off the cuff’ singing of Unchained Melody to swooning cast members and the 3 different American accents.

He showed the world how ready he is and what other work he is ready to do.
He took his opportunity to show what other skills and talent he has …


Also don’t feel guilty as the end of lockdown approaches, if you have not realised any of your goals.

I may forget these but they are vital to my creative process

1.Keep On Trucking.
As the fabulous actor Simon Callow said to me, upon me asking advice on creativity, you have to ‘keep on trucking’. Keep on making the work, then the next project, onwards always.

2.Find The Middle Way.

This is a Buddhist term referring to balance, nothing too extreme either side of too much or too little focus. Balance across areas of mental health, physical, relationship health, financial health to ensuring creative health – so getting dreamt up projects finished and out the door. We don’t want to consistently end up each project exhausted, broke and not having maintained healthy relationships. Sure at times we know we have to drop everything to get projects finished and over the line, from getting shows and art launches ready for press day to long runs that require sustained focus and health.

3.Each creative path and project is rocky but always leads to new vistas and opportunities, sometimes years later.
Every project leads to us learning new skills, or techniques, ends up with us networking somewhere new. Our body of work grows, we get better, more patient and more able to stretch

4.Art is about communication with your audience, the conversations you may have with them, being part of the conversation, the impact of your work on them, the ability to raise your voice on what matters to you from the current It’s A Sin Russell Davis TV show set in the 19080s during the AIDS epidemic to the wonderful Moonlight by Barry Jenkins.
You may never know how your words, film, song or art helped, inspired or strengthened another but just realise it does.

So keep on trucking.

This week’s podcast is recorded on the eve of my 6th year anniversary of the full Singing Psychic first show. I have made and toured other shows before, but from my creation of the initial idea (or catching it on the creative breeze) to small outings in 2007 and 2011, to workshopping it in 2014, to then Edinburgh Fringe and award nominations in 2016 (and indeed an appearance at the Brit Awards Official Party at the 02) to 2 years ago this week being in Australia doing a run of The Singing Psychic Game Show, TedX talks, TV and radio appearances. From the first Singing Psychic video How To Have A More 50 Shades Of Grey relationship.

Q1: Ask yourself what your three year goals are: creatively
What projects, goals, finishing things, big dreams??
Setting up systems to sell more of existing projects
Look at your life on a 3 year life plan – what do you want

Tom Brady has just won his 7th Super Bowl Championship – not only more than any other NFL player but also more than any other team. Plus after he won 6 Super Bowls with the team, The Patriots, he has played with for the last 20 years, but he just moved to a new team the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and won with them. He was joined by his old Patriot teammate Rob Gronowski who came out of retirement to join him in the tight end of the Bucaneers.
He also has won his 5th MVP. and at 43 he has a 3 year training plan to keep himself as fit and flexible to keep playing for as long as possible.

Did he have immediate success in NFL? NO! He was 199th draft pick, 6th pick for the Patriots and his first season he played one game, second season he won the Superbowl with them.
He has a 3 year training plan of short and long term from physical, mental, nutrition, sleep patterns.

He was joined by his old Patriot teammate Rob Gronowski who came out of retirement to join him in the tight end of the Bucaneers.
He also has won his 5th MVP. and at 43 he has a 3 year training plan to keep himself as fit and flexible to keep playing for as long as possible.

Did he have immediate success in NFL? NO! He was 199th draft pick, 6th pick for the Patriots and his first season he played one game, second season he won the Superbowl with them.
He has a 3 year training plan of short and long term from physical, mental, nutrition, sleep patterns.

Aims of this podcast - Love Your Creativity & Make Money
This podcast is about being a working creative from thoughts on marketing, budget to what techniques we can all use to get the work done and out there, no matter where you work full time as an actor, a choreographer or have a yearning to paint more over the weekends.
The book on mental, practical and financial tips on ‘getting your art in gear’ is being launched soon.

About me, Marysia Trembecka

I am at heart a storyteller and this has translated from the initial creation of work to being a performer, including film and theatre acting, writing and performing international touring comedy shows to MCing.

Highlights include sell-out Adelaide and Edinburgh Fringe shows, singing at the Royal Festival Hall in 23 different languages, as well as doing TEDx talks and corporate gigs, such as the Brit Awards Afterparty at the 02 as my ‘The Singing Psychic’ bio queen character.

My ‘THE SINGING PSYCHIC’ who ‘reads the songs in your heart’ also has a GAME SHOW version, and was a finalist in Best Show, Funny Women in 2016, and I have toured internationally since then.
I have also produced five webseries as the character including my 23 episode SONGS OF BREXIT webseries I made for the June 2016 EU Referendum, on the pros and cons of the EU, I started the web series singing The Clash’s ‘Should I Stay Or Should I Go Now’. It was very wll received due to the blend of education and entertainment, and I ended up on London Live and even a BBC2 Live Debate on the National Living Wage amongst other press of the back of that.


I also was awarded Arts Council funding for research on a solo show on how we are all judged by our sexuality, so as part of that, I interviewed people on the cutting edge of sexual politics. From this I then created another character ‘Queen Of The F*cking World’ which has also toured internationally from Glasgow WOFF film festival in the female perspective strand to sell-out London, Edinburgh and Adelaide runs. I sing and play the bass guitar and guitar in this show.760consistency,longtermfocus,tombradycleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/31-how-my-monthly-budget-supports-my-creativity-gives-me-a-plan-peace--43289175
I have been a self-employed creative for years now and my income is always changing as I wait for payments and then have some odd regular work.

I have been doing such a budget for over decade:
It gives me peace
It allows me to plan where there may be gaps
It has helped me support and fund my own creativity.

Lots of my recent podcast episodes are about the mental health aspects, motivation and ways to keep creating ‘the work’ but for me financing your creative dreams and career is a very important part of the puzzle.
Whether you are a painter, photographer, novelist, musician, script writer or actor, you need to be able to fund your life and if you want to be able to turn a creative hobby into a money earner.
Whatever your creative passion, you have to find a way to make it pay (unless it’s a hobby on the side and that’s OK too). I have been a full time creative, a hobbyist and also that doing both a ‘real job’ and then struggled to find time to be creative around that.

The one thing that always grounds me is to do it at the end, say the 30/31st of each month, or if I have not done it then, by say the 3rd of each month or I get restless. I always do it on paper with budget templates, I could do it on excel or on accounting software as I am great at using that stuff, but I like doing it with pen and paper and the ability to scribble things out and change, write notes and reminders.

Think of:
All the money that is coming in and there can be a few month gaps between the work you did or ticket sales actually being paid.
The money that is going out that’s standard – rent, phone bill. mortagage, utilities
I also am looking forward to what coming up creative wise etc such as annual subscriptions.
What do I want to pay for this month? eg annual car insurance rather than monthly,
as I hate paying overdraft fees etc

But creatively if I am looking to do a festival in 6 months time, there are always amounts I need to spend, from venue hire, marketing, brochure fees are often paid out months before I get the money recouped through ticket sales. The most extreme version was paying the up front fees including flights to Australia 6 months before I was doing my first gigs there as I had to apply my work visa showing the flights I had booked already . After paying to live in Australia for 6 weeks whilst gigging there (and also keeping all my bills up and running back in London) I was then paid for my ticket sales approx 2 months after my return. That’s a large amount of money to pre-fund.

I am always aware on my budget what is coming up to pay. I need much more savings as a creative as I know I will be pre-paying out many £1000s in advance.

Savings pots I will talk about in the next episode.

If you are freelance then they all pay on different time periods, sometimes late yet the bills are going out very regularly such as rent and phone bills.

It can be incredibly scary to look at your finances but facing the facts of where you are can help your mental state because at least you can start making a plan and you feel a little but more in control.

A year ago if I could see that I would be short one month, then I would just go out and pick up an extra couple gigs in the week , I MC, am a comic, sing, host, even quiz nights as well as my acting work and voice over work plus my own The Singing Psychic and Queen gigs. I had the ability to pick up easily extra work, that has gone at present.
Just the fact I can see if there is a budget hole helps as at least you can make a plan, “oh I guess no takeaways this week/month/forever”. This monthly budget process has massively helped me support my creativity and gives me peace.

When you earn loads you can put money away and remember to put money away for tax, when you don’t earn much you get extra focused on what you can spend or even need to sell or earn more.
There are loads monthly budgets forms online, have a go, let me know how it went.

We will get through this. Just however scared you are financially right night especially due to covid, there are people around you to chat to and support you, help you make a plan or even offset payment plans. Facing the obstacles, facing what is difficult including budgeting when no money is coming is, calling people to say sorry I cant pay this month, will give you a feeling of control back.
If you feel more in control your brain works better and you will sleep better. Your mental health is so important right now. Facing the details of where you spend and where you can save will probably change your life , I stopped going out to dinner massively when I started this process of facing my own financial reality from being an ex City banker to being an artiste.

The message for us all is to say yes, to go after our dreams, to become doers not just dreamers.

This week’s podcast is inspired by my Singing Psychic podcast last week when I looking at the songs around Shonda Rhimes’ heart. When I was researching I was reminded of hearing her speak at one of the Cannes MIP Tv conferences a few years ago.
Shonda Rhimes has even written a book called The Year Of Yes, so check it out.

2 years ago at #Natpe Miami Beach I listened to Tyler Perry do a lecture on having faith in your own creativity and owning your own content and characters.

Twice a week I now make podcasts, one Singing Psychic one (my comedy character) and this Love Your Creativity And Make Money one.
Consistent making of content – but it can feel like you are making content into the ether.
Keep on making it and enjoying.
I don’t know the future but I do know keeping on making the work I can make, is my only possible response at the moment after 2020 and all my normal gigs have gone away.

Keep on going, making work gives us hope.

If I do nothing with my characters they die, I have done some amazing gigs across the world from being a TEDx speaker, performing live at the Brit Awards Official Afterparty at the 02 in 2016, being on TV and radio
I do ask each year: Where are the big projects to do this year for my characters and content?
If you have a show or a character you are developing – get 2 minutes or five minutes out the door, keep learning, honing,
We are all at different stages. I am looking at what gigs I can do in 2021 Thats feasible
Ask how you can make sure you own everything like Tyler Perry (don’t forget to correctly credit collaborators!)
Think about your brand, it does not have to be a dark difficult ‘Oh God(dess)’ word. Tyler Perry had his name before all his early movie titles so Tyler Perry’s Medea etc. Your brand is the fabulous parts of you and your work you choose to put out into the world to uplift and educate.
There are some amazing gigs and work ahead for all of us, we know it as long as we keep on going
Its about faith and hope.
Where is your work, what is your stamp, what can you make now with what you have got set up. What can you consistently start making?
Belief is everything, as if you don’t believe then you can’t take the action. We all have to take action and keep on going, even if we can’t yet see the end result. That translates back to hope, self belief, mental health and happiness that we can at least move our lives forward even in small but consistent ways

Pick a creative project that you feel was successful: commercial, creative or other success that you ‘shipped’ and got out the down.
This gives you a chance to really drill down and see what worked and what lessons we can carry forward.
It will give you a feeling of control back and help with your mental health about making new work and keeping going.
It can be a book, a song, a sketch shipped out to the world and can be a solo piece or work where you have an important integral part in its development.
Some questions to ask yourself
1.What worked? What did you get it moving?
2. What didn’t work, what was particularly difficult. What challenges from tech to story arc to new skills did you need to learn?
3. How did you finance it, was it boot strapped, a venue helped, did you do merchandise? Did you fund it yourself 100% or to a certain level then get funding later?
4. Who helped you? What network, co-collaborators? Have you built a group of co conspirators that you work with well and keep on working with.
5. Did you have a definition of done for the project eg a festival, event?
6. Did you have a clearly defined date of done – the film will be finished on, the song will be released
7. Marketing : What marketing or press did you do to market the message of your now successful project.
8 Think about what lessons can you take from this reflection. What went right or wrong/ When is art finished? You can spen
9. What people did not help in the process, what obstacles did you hit through people
What marketing or press did you do?
How did you manage the art direction – so branding?

10. Why did the synchronicity or luck kick in to get this moving forward, where did it come from?

It was very wll received due to the blend of education and entertainment, and I ended up on London Live and even a BBC2 Live Debate on the National Living Wage amongst other press of the back of that.


I also was awarded Arts Council funding for research on a solo show on how we are all judged by our sexuality, so as part of that, I interviewed people on the cutting edge of sexual politics. From this I then created another character ‘Queen Of The F*cking World’ which has also toured internationally from Glasgow WOFF film festival in the female perspective strand to sell-out London, Edinburgh and Adelaide runs. I sing and play the bass guitar and guitar in this show.

It works just as well in the business of making art and creativity. So this week’s podcast is an exercise. Pick a creative project that you feel was...So this week’s podcast is an exercise. Pick a creative project that you feel was successful: commercial, creative or other success that you ‘shipped’ and got out the down.
This gives you a chance to really drill down and see what worked and what lessons we can carry forward.
It will give you a feeling of control back and help with your mental health about making new work and keeping going.
It can be a book, a song, a sketch shipped out to the world and can be a solo piece or work where you have an important integral part in its development.
Some questions to ask yourself
1.What worked? What did you get it moving?
2. What didn’t work, what was particularly difficult. What challenges from tech to story arc to new skills did you need to learn?
3. How did you finance it, was it boot strapped, a venue helped, did you do merchandise? Did you fund it yourself 100% or to a certain level then get funding later?
4. Who helped you? What network, co-collaborators? Have you built a group of co conspirators that you work with well and keep on working with.
5. Did you have a definition of done for the project eg a festival, event?
6. Did you have a clearly defined date of done – the film will be finished on, the song will be released
7. Marketing : What marketing or press did you do to market the message of your now successful project.
8 Think about what lessons can you take from this reflection. What went right or wrong/ When is art finished? You can spen
9. What people did not help in the process, what obstacles did you hit through people
What marketing or press did you do?
How did you manage the art direction – so branding?

10. Why did the synchronicity or luck kick in to get this moving forward, where did it come from?

This is an exercise I use at the end of each year before I start setting new goals for the next period. I also ask these same questions at the end of each creative project, tour and release of work.
It is three steps
1) List all your achievements from 2020 – from things that happened, to hobbies or structures you managed to put in place. Did you keep a roof over your head, get an exciting project, move a goal forward? Did you set a goal a year ago that you managed to gain traction on. Did you move homes, countries, fall in love, be mentally strong and look after yourself.
2) List all your disappointments from 2020, whether it was plans not kept, jobs lost, projects not finished. Did people disappoint you, did you lose a job, gigs, all your work, get less fit, or indeed not look after yourself properly.
3) Then read the 2 lists and ask yourself what lessons can you learn from both. Ask
‘why did that work? Why didn’t that work?’ There are always ways to make improvements or changes in our behaviour, systems or ourselves to use such lessons in a positive way. You may see why you succeeded in one area and see how you can add that behaviour to another,
Pick three top lessons from your list, write them down and read them daily for the first 3 months of 2021. If you could learn these threee lessons what difference would it make in your life.

So the first part of the interview is about how it works and how you can do Edinburgh Fringe as an artiste through PBH’s Free Fringe. Peter Buckley Hill started it 25 years ago.
It is a wonderful community who support and work together with each other in their shared venues through the highs and lows of taking a show to the largest arts festival in the world. Plus without it costing you thousands in venue fees.
Luke talks through the application, the ethos, the bucket speech and even how
taking a card machine is becoming essential. We also discuss how many award winning comedians and artistes also do PBH’s Free Fringe and what is the next step for 2021. Applications are open for 2021.

The second part which starts at 18 mins in is about Luke’s own journey as an artist ‘Mister Meredith’ runs the Magic Faraway Cabaret at the Voodoo Rooms at Edinburgh Fringe, is a singalong pianist, vocalist and cabaret host. He has a Singalong Pub Quiz and has also taught ‘delivering a song’ which is where I met him as part of a course I did many years ago.

Great advice includes ‘Be true to yourself, find out what you do well and keep doing that. Listen to people. Be nice. You get booked very often as much as what you are like to work with, as much as how you are on stage.”

Highlights include sell-out Adelaide and Edinburgh Fringe shows, singing at the Royal Festival Hall in 23 different languages, as well as doing TEDx talks and corporate gigs, such as the Brit Awards Afterparty at the 02 as my ‘The Singing Psychic’ bio queen character.

My ‘THE SINGING PSYCHIC’ who ‘reads the songs in your heart’ also has a GAME SHOW version, and was a finalist in Best Show, Funny Women in 2016, and I have toured internationally since then.
I have also produced five webseries as the character including my 23 episode SONGS OF BREXIT webseries I made for the June 2016 EU Referendum, on the pros and cons of the EU, I started the web series singing The Clash’s ‘Should I Stay Or Should I Go Now’. It was very well received due to the blend of education and entertainment, and I ended up on London Live and even a BBC2 Live Debate on the National Living Wage amongst other press of the back of that.


I also was awarded Arts Council funding for research on a solo show on how we are all judged by our sexuality, so as part of that, I interviewed people on the cutting edge of sexual politics. From this I then created another character ‘Queen Of The F*cking World’ which has also toured internationally from Glasgow WOFF film festival in the female perspective strand to sell-out London, Edinburgh and Adelaide runs. I sing and play the bass guitar and guitar in this show.

@MarysiaT]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/42423148Fri, 11 Dec 2020 08:30:06 +0000Marysia TrembeckaThis weeks podcast is an interview with my friend and fellow cabaret artiste Luke Meredith, or Mister Meredith as he is better known. Luke is a singer, pianist and cabaret host as well as being the CEO of PBH’s Free Fringe. So the first part of the...
So the first part of the interview is about how it works and how you can do Edinburgh Fringe as an artiste through PBH’s Free Fringe. Peter Buckley Hill started it 25 years ago.
It is a wonderful community who support and work together with each other in their shared venues through the highs and lows of taking a show to the largest arts festival in the world. Plus without it costing you thousands in venue fees.
Luke talks through the application, the ethos, the bucket speech and even how
taking a card machine is becoming essential. We also discuss how many award winning comedians and artistes also do PBH’s Free Fringe and what is the next step for 2021. Applications are open for 2021.

The second part which starts at 18 mins in is about Luke’s own journey as an artist ‘Mister Meredith’ runs the Magic Faraway Cabaret at the Voodoo Rooms at Edinburgh Fringe, is a singalong pianist, vocalist and cabaret host. He has a Singalong Pub Quiz and has also taught ‘delivering a song’ which is where I met him as part of a course I did many years ago.

Great advice includes ‘Be true to yourself, find out what you do well and keep doing that. Listen to people. Be nice. You get booked very often as much as what you are like to work with, as much as how you are on stage.”


Aims of this podcast - Love Your Creativity & Make Money
This podcast is about being a working creative from thoughts on marketing, budget to what techniques we can all use to get the work done and out there, no matter where you work full time as an actor, a choreographer or have a yearning to paint more over the weekends.
The book on mental, practical and financial tips on ‘getting your art in gear’ is being launched the weekend before Christmas 2020.

This podcast is about some questions to ask yourself to get your art ‘shipped’ aka Seth Godin to get your work , your ‘art’ out of the door.. so to get yourself finishing and shipping some of your creative work out to the world. Ideally in the next 3 weeks.

I have decided to release my book on how to ‘Get Your Art In Gear’ out the door before Christmas 2020 – 2 plus weeks away. This podcast goes through the questions I have asked myself . The book is written, its just needs a few tweaks and an extra 8 chapters written on financing your work and life as a creative, the artwork is done but I have not got it out the door finding other things to focus on. However I have decided to get it ‘shipped’ so available for the world to buy before Xmas. Getting it shipped basically.
1.What is a project you can get out the door in the next 2 or 3 weeks?
2.If not a whole project, is there a sliver of it, so not a whole album but just one song…if not a film then a cartoon or a trailer of ideas?
3.Why ? Why are you doing this? What do you get from it beyond self satisfaction,? What does this work say about you or the world, what makes it important?
4.Also by allowing this work out into the world, what does it give the world? How does it impact people ? A new perspective, an alternative voice or viewpoint
5.You can even ask yourself who is this work for?
6.Marketing how will I market it? How can your network support you?
7.Is it finished? What stage is it at and can you get it edited in time? Or do you need to take a short section or do in a different format for this piece
8.Is it in a place where you can edit so do you need an external eye to help edit, so get that moving now so you get some of your ideas out in the world asap. But don’t wait for others permission.
9.What is the action step you can take today?
10.Put a price on it, don’t just give it away for free. You need to earn a living from your art so you start by charging a fair price for you and your audience.
11.Decide and do, pick one thing – one song, one book, one chapter, one cartoon, one drawing and get it done and out the door into the world. Get on with it, ship it!

Live events – also the logistics and budgets on how do we get started again?
One of my Brighton Fringe 2020 venues emailed me about Brighton 2021 for my The Singing Psychic Game Show
I like to performing two shows a day as costing it really helps for the budgeting and break evens.
I always put spreadsheets together to cost my tours and see if I can make a profit from costs of venues, travel, accommodation, posters, marketing, door staff, more tech, other band members, brochure costs, what happens if you don’t sell enough tickets, is the cost all on you, commission fees due, door splits.
The reason I do have a career is partly my 10,000 hours plus a lot of persistence, some luck, and my finance background.
I regularly ask myself questions like how are we marketing this? How I am moving this forward? My The Singing Psychic show has – 3 different versions, webseries, a podcast, live TV and radio work, corporate work inc Tedx, Brit awards. How do I keep the brand going forward in 2021
If I say yes and stick to the budget and my spreadsheets we set in 2020 including the fees and the costs - do the maths still work in 2021 if they drop to 50% capacity suddenly?

All of us in live events are looking at how are we getting from here in lockdown to shows in 2021 – how am I making it work logistically and budget wise. As a DJ, comic, an artist, a filmmaker, how do I launch projects that often would have been live events to get press.
I am not gigging 5 x a week presently as pre lockdown so I have more mental time to plan.
I don’t have answers yet but I do know is that to solve to anything is to ask the questions and start dreaming.
I know I must keep my characters and the brands going ..I will not let my characters die .
So It will be compromise and solutions even if on a smaller scale, I can’t take as much risk early 2021, maybe do a shorter run ..
What are the risks you can afford to take, financially?

My ‘THE SINGING PSYCHIC’ who ‘reads the songs in your heart’ also has a GAME SHOW version, and was a finalist in Best Show, Funny Women in 2016, and I have toured internationally since then.
I have also produced five webseries as the character including my 23 episode SONGS OF BREXIT webseries I made for the June 2016 EU Referendum, on the pros and cons of the EU, I started the web series singing The Clash’s ‘Should I Stay Or Should I Go Now’. It was very well received due to the blend of education and entertainment, and I ended up on London Live and even a BBC2 Live Debate on the National Living Wage amongst other press of the back of that.


I also was awarded Arts Council funding for research on a solo show on how we are all judged by our sexuality, so as part of that, I interviewed people on the cutting edge of sexual politics. From this I then created another character ‘Queen Of The F*cking World’ which has also toured internationally from Glasgow WOFF film festival in the female perspective strand to sell-out London, Edinburgh and Adelaide runs. I sing well and play the bass guitar and guitar in this show.

I did this exercise first in 2013 when I started my first podcast Love Your Creativity and was shocked to find out exactly how much time I spent every day creating amazing dishes for one (and a cat).
The suggestion is to just track your one hour time slots via paper, phone notes or an app – try not to get overcomplicated. Don’t judge! Then at the end of the week add up all the times in certain activities.
Then look at the ‘hotspots’ the areas where you wanted to take more action and did not, and those areas where you did not plan to spend that amount of time but did.
If you have made a plan (have a listen to last week’s podcast on how making a plan very quickly leads to getting a feeling of control back) then you will have an idea of where you want to spend your time – and chatting and supporting family and your local community is great. However you will definitely see you spend many hours on X activity and if you could reclaim a portion of that back then you have time to spend doing what you deem to be more worthwhile activites.

Have a go and let me have some feedback on what you learned!

More than self confidence, self compassion is a far better tool to get ahead and be happier.

Being self confident means you feel good at trying things, and people around you believe you can achieve the targets so are more likely to give you a chance. You also will earn more on average.

However self confidence has major downsides as it can lead to you ignoring feedback, not being clear on where you failed and where you need to put extra work in plus you can be self delusional. Plus if/when you fail, your self esteem gets battered as it does not compute. Not taking guidance and thus not correcting is a real fail for those of us who are self-confident.

If you are lacking in self confidence you are more aware of where you are failing, you can see where the problems are but you will be less likely to believe you have the ability to correct the issues and thus you will not try. People also will not trust you to do things so you will not be given as many chances.

Self compassion is a technique that ensures that you get the best of both. You forgive yourself and can see where you need to put the work in.

How do you become more self compassionate?
-Talk to yourself in a gentle loving voice (think like a kind elderly supportive relative!)
- Forgive yourself
- Don’t be critical when you fail and tell yourself off
- Accept you are human and thus fallible
- Recognise your failures and frustrations without seeing them as the end of the world or a reason to give up
-Do something about your failures and frustrations

Meditation, chanting and mindfulness also help.
I also do the ‘think three things I am grateful for each morning before I get out of bed’, different ones every day. This is an exercise proven to life spirits, by increasing your gratitude for the life you have now, you will be less likely to get depressed.

I sometimes only seem to create when I have to create, under pressure or deadlines and then I moan about the rush. Ridiculous when I think about the fact I have chosen this creative life, or it has chosen me and I must follow my muse – often grumpily it seems!

Hence this podcast is about what techniques we can all use to get the work done and out there, no matter where you work full time as an actor, a choreographer or have a yearning to paint more over the weekends.

All we can do sometimes in life is give yourself a break and give yourself the gift of creating daily. It gives yourself hope and allows you then to find the strength to tackle the other not so fun challenges in life.
I dont want you to collapse in a ball and say this is too hard. Do reach out to friends and professional help if you are getting really stuck.

We only have so much willpower and decision making in us each day so use that wisely. Research shows you are more likely to have an affair if you are on a diet as being ‘good’ in one area makes us feel we can ‘treat’ ourselves in other areas in our life!
Barack Obama would always wear a blue suit and a blue shirt every day in the White House as he did not want to use his decision making skills on such an irrelevant to him issue given the multitude of decisions he did have to make. It seems Trump spends all his decision making crafting his tweets …

16. Take a singular step forward towards your dream. Every day.
That might be practising your guitar, work on the bridge of your song or the middle Act in your play. Maybe see if you can find a singular idea in your feature length film script to make a 5 minute short to then use to get funding for the 100 minute version.
It could be reaching out to a possible new agent.
If you vow to yourself, that you will honour yourself and take a step towards your creative career every day, even if it feels like a tiny shuffle, even if you hate your day job or you are on furlough and facing possible redundancy, just vow to yourself to take
Maybe get up earlier before work and kids as it will make your focus easier. It will make you feel that you are honouring yourself and your muse.
There are many theories about where the creative muse comes from, from the Greek ideas that the muse hids in the walls, to a wind that whistles through you . But in every case you have to do the work of manifesting the idea into a fully formed piece of work in whatever medium you feel is appropriate.
We have a duty to be prepared and showing up. Anyone you look at in the world history of making amazing work has just kept showing up. So however you define yourself as a creative, show up! Do the work. Vow to your life to step forward every day, even if you do not see the results today you are winning. Trust me.

I did a podcast episode called Whars Next? What is the next step? So ask yourself.

17) Read a biography or an autobiography at least once a month or even one a week, for a year and watch how your heart will strengthen and soar.
Soar like arms wide flying, not saw as in a block of wood ;)
Once you have read the story of someone’s life it will educate you on how they tackled their life.
Choose wildly different professions, outside your own as well. From politicians such as reading Nelson Mandela’s ‘ Long Walk To Freedom’ to Eartha Kitt not being able to marry the man she loved, a Hilton heir, because of her skin colour despite her fame, beauty and brilliance. I saw Eartha Kitt perform twice, when she was 80 and a few months before she died at 81 years of age. Knowing her past, having read two of the books she had written about her life made her amazing cabaret artistry even more powerful.

My world view has been changed slightly by every story of a life that I read. Sidney Poitier’s autobiography will never leave me, odd facts from it pop up at least once a month. How he discovered acting was as he searched for a new job as a dishwasher in NYC, the integrity he brought to the roles he would pick as a light to others in the black community. He had to learn to read properly so a fellow dishwasher, an Irish man, helped him between dishwashing sessions, he listened to the radio to learn to speak without only his original hard to understand according to him, Bahamian accent - he needed as an actor to be able to play other roles and this was in 1950s America!

Documentaries are also amazing, but do read as well, a documentary made by an external filmmaker is curated by the director and their access to footage will also dictate their viewpoint. Their view on that person (the recent Queen film was amazing but was told really as the making of Queen and their songs. Freddie Mercury the brilliant charming superhero, his sexuality and own angle was massively underplayed for the commercial good of the film.

So always see if you can get the story for the person themselves if possible, maybe as a follow up. If you particularly fascinated find two opposing versions of the same person.
I encourage you to do at least one a month.
You will be inspired, possibly made angry. I also think going to a charity or normal bookshop and picking a random biography, even of someone you can’t stand can be a real force to get you moving, even in anger ;)

18) Create a story or scene in your mind on what is in front of you. This is a development on a Boleslavsky acting exercise I used to do when I studied in LA.
Go out and sit in a park, on a sidewalk, in a coffee shop, with a note book. Sit somewhere where you can watch. Pick something, a couple walking past, a bird in a tree, the rush of water, a building. And think up, and journal, or draw, a story or a scene.
If it’s a human or a couple, what do you think are they conversing about, their inner thoughts, what are they saying vs what they are thinking, what is their greatest dream, or project them into the next day or next year. Watch their body language. If it is a building what happened in there last night.
Dream about what they might be saying, thinking about, are they flirting with each other or someone else?
Watch how close they stand to each other.
Boleslavsky’s exercise teaches you to study human behaviour as well which can be a creative source.
Now you may be a visual artist so you could think of how to show that in photos or a film, or as a writer what is the story.
Write down some ideas for 15 mins, virtually send them love from your heart, and then leave it.
Do this at least once a week for four weeks or even try 3 times a week, daily is better, for at least a month. It will sharpen your eye and your creative brain, plus you will start to think about using one of the scenes as a new project.
I take this a step further and wherever I travel, especially if it is on a crowded train, I look at people and find one thing that is fantastic about them. They may look exhausted but they could have kind eyes or fabulous nails.

19) Morning journalling or ‘Morning Pages’ as Julia Cameron calls them. There is no wrong way to do them., it is basically get 3 sheets of A4 paper and just write, by hand, no typing, dumping your thoughts first thing from the ‘I hate my’ to ‘I wish’ to ‘I wonder’ or ‘I could’.
Just say you will do them for a month every day.
It takes about 15 minutes maximum and before you get into the day. I personally then throw them away immediately – if I have written some ideas that I need to follow up, I just add those as singular sticky notes, but get rid of the junk. I never re-read mine.
I am the queen of sticky notes, in fact I may yet design a dress of sticky notes with a mini white board as a hat. Very drag race or Project Runway.

20) Become Your Own Cheerleader.
You need to really appreciate how fabulous you are and that you are doing the best you can.
One part L That exercise where you think every night, before you go to sleep, of three things you are grateful for that day. It works.
Or do it first thing in the morning asking ‘What was great about yesterday? What did I achieve yesterday? What three things am I grateful for right now?
And then What am I going to do today that is fabulous for moving my life forward’
Sometimes when I am doing my Singing Psychic show I feel called to say to someone as part of the ‘four-tune’ telling to look at themselves naked in the morning and pick one thing about your body you love, from your biceps to your heart. .. And pick another part the next day. For 30 days.

Just remember the world needs your fierce. It needs your art, your view,
Marianne Williamson’s quote ‘ we all have a light within us’ but it is our responsibility to polish that light, get out there and shine.
Knowing you are fighting through makes you mentally stronger.
I chant as it makes me go after bigger waves to ride in this life.


Seeing the incredible human you are., taking full responsibility for your life and taking a step forward every day are the magic three pillars to make your life and your art shine.

Roundup
Impressing yourself by getting through hard times and thriving. Hope is vital and it will give you strength to keep going through the mud. That is how you end up with an extraordinary life, by keep on fighting forward.

I am creating a toolkit with all 20 exercises in with further questions to really move you forward and giving it as a gift to everyone for the next two months – til November 18th 2020- to help you move your creative projects forward and get you loving your creativity again.

There are many theories about where the creative muse comes from, from the Greek ideas that the muse hids in the walls, to a wind that whistles through you . But in every case you have to do the work of manifesting the idea into a fully formed piece of work in whatever medium you feel is appropriate.
We have a duty to be prepared and showing up. Anyone you look at in the world history of making amazing work has just kept showing up. So however you define yourself as a creative, show up! Do the work. Vow to your life to step forward every day, even if you do not see the results today you are winning. Trust me.

I did a podcast episode called Whars Next? What is the next step? So ask yourself.

17) Read a biography or an autobiography at least once a month or even one a week, for a year and watch how your heart will strengthen and soar.
Soar like arms wide flying, not saw as in a block of wood ;)
Once you have read the story of someone’s life it will educate you on how they tackled their life.
Choose wildly different professions, outside your own as well. From politicians such as reading Nelson Mandela’s ‘ Long Walk To Freedom’ to Eartha Kitt not being able to marry the man she loved, a Hilton heir, because of her skin colour despite her fame, beauty and brilliance. I saw Eartha Kitt perform twice, when she was 80 and a few months before she died at 81 years of age. Knowing her past, having read two of the books she had written about her life made her amazing cabaret artistry even more powerful.

My world view has been changed slightly by every story of a life that I read. Sidney Poitier’s autobiography will never leave me, odd facts from it pop up at least once a month. How he discovered acting was as he searched for a new job as a dishwasher in NYC, the integrity he brought to the roles he would pick as a light to others in the black community. He had to learn to read properly so a fellow dishwasher, an Irish man, helped him between...]]>1326actress,creativity,makingwork,marysiatrembecka,singingpsychic,writingshowscleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/14-exercises-11-to-15-to-help-end-overwhelm-find-your-joy-again-as-a-creative--41036016So this is the 3rd in this four part podcast series – with another further five standalone exercises, that are practical, doable, bite-able, free or very cheap. So start here! No need to go back to last weeks ;)

If you have hope in your heart you will have more grit, more persistence, more ability to overcome the challenges of making your work.
That hope, that taking a step each day forward is vital at every stage. From the incubation period of ‘ I have this idea’ to research, to the technical decisions such as ‘what is my medium for this, film, novel, song, gallery exhibition’ and so what do I need to learn, produce, budget for, market, finish, oh and how do I sell my finished product?!!!
So this is a 4 part podcast series – with 5 exercises each that are practical, doable, bite-able.
Try one at a time, for a week at least – ideally minimum 21 days and if you can try for 100 days each then the new habit will get into your DNA.

Exercises 11 to 15
11) Tackle one hard thing one small bite at a time. Do you have a real life problem you are hiding from? Or maybe you have tried to deal with it, and yet it is not easily solvable?
The only way to win - first spiritually, then emotionally, then in reality is to look at the problem straight on and ask what is the next singular step I can take?
Fighting the fight you need with your power company or resolving something so you can move on, it releases stuck energy in your life and you are declaring to the universe that you have got this, you will not be defeated and you are taking real actions to upgrade yourself, change the circumstances and also change how you react. No more hiding!
Whether it is calling the company, asking for friends or legal advice, going to Citizens Advice Bureau, having to move home or keep trying to find a job in this difficult time, tough times happen. All we can do is our best every day and that can seem impossible to change our situations. The way to create hope that is solvable is by you taking the appropriate actions, one at a time.
I did a podcast on ‘Ask Whats Next’ on creating your projects but the question is just as valid in real life problems a la David Allen’s productivity book ‘Getting Things Done’.
Do you need to write a new CV, then go do it, do you need to get your debt levels brought down?
Devise a plan with small actionable steps and then follow it. Get support around you to help if you need, but you will start feeling hopeful and fierce again, once you start taking the actions to resolve the issue,
Get the energy moving!
12) Go to an exhibition (online if you can’t get there) but its better in person and just enjoy seeing and learning about what the curator has put together.
Seeing objects that people used or created, letters they may have written, is tremendously empowering and connecting.
I remember when I was researching for my sexual politics show on us all being judged by our sexuality ‘Queen Of The F*cking World’ seeing the Emma Hamilton exhibition in National Maritime Museum, Greenwich which had the fabulous tagline: Politician, celebrity, spy, muse. Oh and Lord Nelson’s lover’.
Again it forms a sense of connection and that struggles, as a human, as an artist is part of life. It is our choice how we tackle that and someone like Emma Hamilton from being so poor she was basically a prostitute to reaching the heights she did, to then ending up dying in prison, largely thanks to the British press and government propaganda.



13) Junk Or Joy.
#JunkOrJoy is a 100 day challenge to yourself where you look at your thoughts, habits and actions and decide in the moment if you are choosing to live from a place of negativity or indeed you choose joy.
I literally ask myself ' Is this Junk or is this joy' when negative thoughts pop up or I find myself overindulging in too much Netflix as opposed to working on my creative projects.
When obstacles hit us sometimes the only thing we can do is change how we are reacting to them by asking ‘Is this Junk or Is this Joy,?’ and then from there choosing to come from a wiser place.
It allows you not to get sucked into a spiral of negativity, but to be able to stop and say 'yes this is awful but let me focus on something else' whether that is planning your next life steps or indeed calling your bank manager.
I did an entire podcast episode on this so do listen if you want to learn more.




14) Chanting or meditation.
We all have different spiritual practices that work for us all but commit to daily practise of sone form of meditation you are happy with.. It works, all the science proves it so do it. They have tested brain waves patterns and you can see an absolute difference in what is happening in the brain.
The long you chant or meditate for, either in terms of length of practice such as for one year or ten years, or in terms of doing it for ten minutes or 30 minutes a day, the quicker your brain waves pattern change, your memory and decision making improves.
Tina Turner used chanting to find the strength to leave Ike and carve her own path. her West End musical has chanting at the beginning and end of each half to emphasise how important it was for her and indeed she has now written a book.
Headspace the meditation app is also great and has some free stress meditations on it.
The Royal Shakespeare Company Associate Artist, painter and choreographer Liz Ranken has a morning practise of exercise, chanting, mantras and mediation before she starts mixing her paints. Her first portrait is in London’s National Portrait Gallery!
Make it a non negotiable. Ten minutes a day start a new practise that works for you.

15) No alcohol or mind bending substances (I exclude caffeine) for a month.
This idea that creatives always have to be in an altered state via external substances to create, is a dangerous creative myth. I am not anti having a good time, and I do happily drink champagne, no plans on stopping that. But when you have lost your hope, life is hard or you can’t get your projects moving forward, getting serious about your art is vital. Clearing space in your mind, heart and in your body will re-ignite you.
Alcohol of course is a depressant. Drugs have a come down, hangovers, you don’t need either when you are fighting for your life and hope. I appreciate many people enjoy weed but it has the propensity to numb you out and being a successful creative requires a real fight.
So this is not an anti-fun for life argument , I love my full on annual two week partying rapture and chaos trip at Cannes Film festival each year and plan to keep on doing that. I was very sad about the 2020 festival being cancelled as I need my fun.
Just like with Footloose, the film, there is a time to dance. There is also a time to ‘werk, bitch’ and having a sober focused period of your choice, a week, a month, 3 months etc will help get you hoping and moving your creative life forward.
Do get professional help if you become very depressed and reach out.

Aims of this podcast
I sometimes only seem to create when I have to create, under pressure or deadlines and then I moan about the rush. Ridiculous when I think about the fact I have chosen this creative life, or it has chosen me and I must follow my muse – often grumpily it seems! Or I do nothing and then feel guilty as I watch friends get with their own projects. Hence this podcast is about what techniques we can all use to get the work done and out there, no matter where you work full time as an actor, a choreographer or have a yearning to paint more over the weekends. I have been a creator of shows for nearly 20 years now, I have made every mistake going, met incredible people along the way and now am a world touring working creative still working at my craft.

About me, Marysia Trembecka

I am at heart a storyteller and this has translated from the initial creation of work to being a performer, including film and theatre acting, writing and performing international touring comedy shows to MCing.
Highlights include sell-out Adelaide and Edinburgh Fringe shows, singing at the Royal Festival Hall in 23 different languages, as well as doing TEDx talks and corporate gigs, such as the Brit Awards Afterparty at the 02 as my ‘The Singing Psychic’ bio queen character.

My ‘THE SINGING PSYCHIC’ who ‘reads the songs in your heart’ also has a GAME SHOW version, and was a finalist in Best Show, Funny Women in 2016, I have also produced five webseries as the character including my 23 episode SONGS OF BREXIT webseries I made for the June 2016 EU Referendum, on the pros and cons of the EU
I also was awarded Arts Council funding for research on a solo show on how we are all judged by our sexuality, From this I then created another character ‘Queen Of The F*cking World’ which has also toured internationally

We all have had so many goals that got demolished this year and it is very important that we are compassionate to ourselves and others .
However I am using anger now, which can be incredibly useful in life. The Chancellor of the UK declared that the Arts are not viable and they are unskilled work… Looking at the US & UK politics right now from the Trump Biden debate that so wasn’t a debate, to Britain planning to break international law, it is easy to get anger and then depressed but actually anger that fuels us to keep moving forward to keep protesting what needs to.

Time to Step My EVERYTHING Up as it is 3 Months Til The End Of 2020

I invite you to join me so we can all say we made it through 2020. That we are all able to say that
‘In October, November, December 2020 I completely stepped up and changed what I needed to.’
Whether it’s getting involved in personal or creative projects to adding your reasoned voice to politics and the climate change crisis, it is about finding that inner core that says no I am not going down with the ship.

I know my artist career is in my hands, I always did. Forget doing OK, I have to step up
I want a victory – so draw it, paint it, see it and then go after it

The language I use is really the only way I can think about this.

Whatever your gender or how you identify we all have this core strength and feminine energy creates life, passion and fun ;)
This core energy should be really honoured, it is a powerhouse of strength that gives life to children and projects, passion that makes us stand up to protect each other and of course sexual energy that makes us feel fully in our body and fierce.

6) Create a Cheerleading Group:
Get a group of like-minded people, I think a group of 2 or 3 max, ideally in different work fields than you are. Agree to meet once a week, either virtually or in person, and each or all three of you have 5 minutes to say what you achieved in the last week, 5 minutes what you are going to achieve in the next week which you will report back on, and I will allow 5 minutes to say what you are struggling with, for their feedback and input.
It is for both or all three of you to both cheer and be cheered, to be that baton flying, puffball shaking cheerleader yelling ‘G O, Y O U!” If you want to dress up as cheerleaders for your weekly cheer then go for it. I suggest you commit for a 4 week initial period max and then you can both agree to keep on going if it works for both of you.
Tips:
Don’t interrupt and listen fully to the person being ‘cheered’
Consider texting in the week when you manage to win and achieve goals
Dress up like a cheerleader

7) Get learning about a particular artist, creative wonder or legend
It can be an actor, a filmmaker, a sculptor, a writer. It can be modern day or even go back to the Greeks. Spend one week on them and see what they have written, their work, how they feel about their work, with say a minimum 30 minutes each day learning. If they are a musician or group, listen to all their albums from the first to their last, read their very first and their last novel or film, look at how their art has changed.
Also look and see what you can find about them in terms of how they tackled life as an artist and also living as a human, the struggles they had.

Tips:
Watch/read/listen to their very first and last works.
Explore what is considered their ‘best’ work and their ‘worst”
See how their work has changed over their career
Read where you can on how they dealt with the struggles of their life, personal and career.
Did they have kids or not, married or not, how did they balance home life and creativity?
How did they fund their careers, did it change, did they have sponsors, a second job?
When your back is against the wall you will be inspired by them, their stories will imprint on you
Learn about very different fields will teach you on different approaches: –
Science – Isaac Newton did more to move our understanding of the world than anyone, he also was a hermit
Mathematician - Paul Erdős – he would turn up at other mathematicians houses and demand to do maths. The Erdos number is a very famous maths equivalent of the Kevin Bacon – 6 degrees of separation.. the smaller your number the more likely you are to have won a Nobel prize for Maths!
Nina Simone – her political and personal struggles whilst making incredible music
Clara Schuman - more famous than her husband when they married as a concert pianist, she struggled with many kids, Schumann’s mental health issues and she kept creating and playing whilst keeping the house and finances together.
Rudolf Nureyev – even in a world where they expect excellence, the other ballet stars were amazed by his work ethic. Plus of course his defection from Russia so he could dance his dreams.

8) Exercise:
Yes I know you don’t want to hear this but daily heart rate raising exercise is vital. Most people’s normal level of activity from the gym, swimming, even walking to work have been hugely disrupted with lockdown, including mine.
There is a great book called Spark by Dr John Ratey, if you google it there is even a video with some of the takeaways.
Basically daily exercise helps :
your brain grow,
helps willpower,
helps your mood,
Students who exercised before a language lesson retained an extra 25% of vocabulary!
Starting is the hardest thing so I suggest you get a friend and agree to text each other when you have done your days training. There are so many home workouts you can follow that finances are not an opt-out.
Just do it.
Daily.
Ideally in the morning before work.
Disadvantages;
-Make sure you start safely, be aware of your own capabilities, be wise.
- It will make you glow, people will flirt, you will feel fierce
Make it a Non-negotiable

9) Give yourself the gift of hope, joy and respecting your dream by creating a routine.
As an artist we often have large portions of time, and not strict routines. If we have a day job then that is the routine we work to. I find having large swathes of ‘creative time’ is a great excuse to procrastinate. So determine to be ‘at your desk’ at a set time eg 9am every day Monday to Friday for a month.
At your desk might mean practising your guitar, or learning a new technique.
Steven Pressfield in his brilliant book ‘The War of Art’ argues very successfully that we have to be like a martial artist, getting up and working on our craft every day. I say 9am but I often am up far earlier than that if I am not touring.
If you have a day job that pays the bills try getting up an hour earlier than you need so you can work on your ‘creative work’ and use that morning energy on what is most important to do, creating your work.
It is too easy to let money bringing activities overtake the importance of creation to the exclusion of all, get a healthy workable balance.
Read Twyla Tharp’s ‘This Creative Habit’
Use your morning energy well on your creative.

10) Create your own alter ego.
I have been touring as a cabaret artist for nearly 20 years now and seen the incredible shows and characters that many artists across the world create.
Apparently the term for me is a ‘bio queen’ as I have created characters The Singing Psychic, Queen Of The F*cking World plus others I created are extensions of me but definitely are not me.
Drag queens of course talk of their drag personas in the third person and I have always done that. The Singing Psychic is ‘she ‘ to me. Now you don’t have to take it as far as I have, touring the world and creating shows as these characters but if you did …
Create an alter ego what would that look like? From a bio queen to a drag queen or even a drag king.
Write down how they would look, how they sound, their dress, their situation, how they would respond.
What situation would you put them in?
What are their home lives and sexual relations like?
What are they particularly fierce at?
What is their point of view?
What do they really want?
Now you can take this all the way to an Instagram feed, or a novel or just have it in a notebook.
I suggest you spend a month thinking and writing about them, maybe ten minutes a day. It is fun and it will free you up.

Did they have kids or not, married or not, how did they balance home life and creativity?
How did they fund their careers, did it change, did they have sponsors, a second job?
When your back is against the wall you will be inspired by them, their stories will imprint on you
Learn about very different fields will teach you on different approaches: –
Science – Isaac Newton did more to move our understanding of the world than anyone, he also was a hermit
Mathematician - Paul Erdős – he would turn up at other mathematicians houses and demand to do maths. The Erdos number is a very famous maths equivalent of the Kevin Bacon – 6 degrees of separation.. the smaller your number the more likely you are to have won a Nobel prize for Maths!
Nina Simone – her political and personal struggles whilst making incredible music
Clara Schuman - more famous than her husband when they married as a concert pianist, she struggled with many kids,...]]>1748artistic,creativity,motivationcleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/11-five-exercises-to-end-overwhelm-find-your-joy-again-as-a-creative--40951413This is the first 5 practical exercises of my four part podcast series.
If you have hope in your heart you will have more grit, more persistence, more ability to overcome the challenges of making your work. That hope, that taking a step each day forward is vital at every stage. From the incubation period of ‘ I have this idea’ to research, to the technical decisions such as ‘what is my medium for this, film, novel, song, gallery exhibition’ and so what do I need to learn, produce, budget for, to the carving of ‘your ‘statue of David, ‘your art’..
Talking of the statue of David, Michelangelo was the third sculptor to have a go at carving that block of marble that was deemed of poor quality and too thin, the first two were incredibly famous and successful yet gave up yet he said ‘I just carved David out of the statue’.
Plus of course the now inevitable social media whilst you are making the work, then when your art is done the marketing, the sale of the work. All whilst keeping a roof over your head! That is a challenge all artists and creatives face, made worse by the current Covid situation
It is a hard time for artists with theatres closed, lack of gigs, missing the human interaction. Plus for many, our normal ways of keeping our own personal finances in order, often short term work have disappeared,
So this is a 4 part podcast series – with 5 exercises each that are practical, doable, bite-able.
Try one at a time, for a week at least – ideally minimum 21 days and if you can try for 100 days each then the new habit will get into your DNA.

First 5 exerrcises are:

1)Get in Touch. Reconnect and speak to 3 people each week that you have not seen or spoken to in a while. This is not a sales call, nor a woe is me call, but a ‘how are you doing’, listening open hearted conversation. Yes you can talk about your struggles but hear about their life first. Reconnection with people you have worked with before, or studied with, far flung family members, people you have a mentor/ mentee relationship.
2)Go for a walk daily for at least 7 days. Solo, take your artist inner self and leave your bitchy inner critic voice at home. Really look around at the sky, the architecture, the trees. When your mind wanders to your own thoughts just focus on what you can see, hear and smell.
3)Go to a second hand bookshop and buy a book on something you think is bonkers, or outside your normal comfort zone. Decide you are definitely buying a book today – you can try more than one charity shop. Maybe a photo book on Moldovian dancing rituals, a play or novel you have never heard of, a self help book with a title that makes no sense, something with a great cover, arts books, a biography of an artist completely out of your field (more on biographies later). Read it and just enjoy learning something new
4)Define your own superpower. We all have a super power. With superheros it is their defining trait which often has a Kryptonite side. With my ‘The Singing Psychic character it is her ability to read songs in people’s hearts but on day to day basis we all know people who are effortlessly kind no matter what, who have patience and belief no matter what. Decide to really look at what yours is: an unrelenting belief on making your work, being able somehow to keep going, what is your one talent? What is the one thing you do better than anyone else. This is a subject that you should write about, hone, really understand, maybe ask some nice friends ‘ what is the one thing I am brilliant at’ on a personal or a professional level. Then start being aware when you are wielding that power or not using it. You need to get your cape or Wonder Woman cuffs on more. Be also aware of your kryptonite though, are yo u so good at helping others that you don’t take time out for yourself? Are you such a natural musician that you dont really practise and take your work seriously?
5)Become a whirling dervish. Dance in your kitchen. Traditionally this term refers to a 12th century Sufi spiritual practice where they whirled, twirled and howled in ecstasy. Bacchnalian rites involved sex, dancing, orgies and yes mind bending substances all to reach enlightenment, The modern day version is when we go clubbing or to a festival where a mass of people celebrates life, dancing, drinking, flirting together. In lockdown dancing with random strangers in the same space, is something I have missed so I suggest you start dancing in your kitchen. Pick some fabulous tunes and have a 15 minute boogie in your flat or cook with a dance radio station, it can be any kind of music but you need to be able to dance to it, and fall into it. Or you could listen to my weekly DJ Singing Psychic radio show where alongside my ‘four-tunes’ telling readings and ‘Song Of The Week’ I always make sure to put tunes in that get you get to your soul energy part of that whirling dervish space, being in the moment and grooving, forgetting the outside world.


I am creating a toolkit with all 20 exercises in with further questions to really move you forward and giving it as a gift to everyone for the next two months – til November 18th 2020- to help you move your creative projects forward and get you loving your creativity again. If you would like a copy of this then either email me with the subject TOOLKIT to

Aims of this podcast
I sometimes only seem to create when I have to create, under pressure or deadlines and then I moan about the rush. Ridiculous when I think about the fact I have chosen this creative life, or it has chosen me and I must follow my muse – often grumpily it seems! Or I do nothing and then feel guilty as I watch friends get with their own projects. Hence this podcast is about what techniques we can all use to get the work done and out there, no matter where you work full time as an actor, a choreographer or have a yearning to paint more over the weekends. I have been a creator of shows for nearly 20 years now, I have made every mistake going, met incredible people along the way and now am a world touring working creative.

About me, Marysia Trembecka

I am at heart a storyteller and this has translated from the initial creation of work to being a performer, including film and theatre acting, writing and performing international touring comedy shows to MCing.
Highlights include sell-out Adelaide and Edinburgh Fringe shows, singing at the Royal Festival Hall in 23 different languages, as well as doing TEDx talks and corporate gigs, such as the Brit Awards Afterparty at the 02 as my ‘The Singing Psychic’ bio queen character.

My ‘THE SINGING PSYCHIC’ who ‘reads the songs in your heart’ also has a GAME SHOW version, and was a finalist in Best Show, Funny Women in 2016, and I have toured internationally since then.

I have also produced five webseries as the character including my 23 episode SONGS OF BREXIT webseries I made for the June 2016 EU Referendum, on the pros and cons of the EU, I started the web series singing The Clash’s ‘Should I Stay Or Should I Go Now’. It was very well received due to the blend of education and entertainment, and I ended up on London Live and even a BBC2 Live Debate on the National Living Wage amongst other press of the back of that.


I also was awarded Arts Council funding for research on a solo show on how we are all judged by our sexuality, so as part of that, I interviewed people on the cutting edge of sexual politics. From this I then created another character ‘Queen Of The F*cking World’ which has also toured internationally from Glasgow WOFF film festival in the female perspective strand to sell-out London, Edinburgh and Adelaide runs. I sing well and play the bass guitar and guitar in this show.

I talk in the podcast about the following few tricks the game manufacturers from Xbox to Nintendo use, to get you that obsessed and excited about getting your own creative projects and more important challenges over line. Game-ify yourself ;)
1)Set short winnable challenges, not so hard or unfocused that they are un-winnable, but bit size pieces, so get to the end of this chapter, how to get this one issue fixed. Short so you can clearly see the specific task ahead, winnable so not impossible, but challenging as our brains love to be challenged.
2)Set novel challenges. Each stage in a game you have often different rules, new characters, a new battle, maybe new items to use, the rules are slightly different which stimulates you to have a go. Too easy its boring, too hard you give up
3)Tell yourself the story of what you are doing. In games you have a cool avatar, fighting to collect points to decorate a garden (Gardenscape) or extra power for the next level. You have a mission, yep even if you are playing candy crush – you will win this next stage! They will start flooding the screen with flowers and glittery stars. So set yourself clearly ‘why are you doing this?’ For me I am currently developing the next stage of my Singing Psychic character and I am hitting lots of new tech problems on the set up as I explore the world of the DJ Singing Psychic. But I can see the joy of me and the audience next summer in a field with me DJing, reading the songs in the audiences heart and probably playing some of my Game Show games and everyone dancing and laughing. I can see it, my story and it is total inspiring me every time to fight forward
NB I also whimsically suggest you dress up as your favourite superhero, Wakanda (RIP the amazing Chadwick Boseman) or Wonder Woman forever whilst tackling these challenges.. I have not tried this yet myself , but I will report back next week on it

The fact that 95% of actors are not working did not worry Ken. He made a decision 13 years, that there is no reason why he should not be part of the 5% and started on a journey to change that. The starting point is always that it is possible to earn a living from what you do and what you love.
It is tough and difficult and when you get work there are always a new set of challenges, broadening your capacity, deepening your work and bringing something more wonderful than you have before.

If you strive to create something amazing it will always be challenging and that’s a good thing and make you raise your game.

His favourite quote is by Daisaku Ikeda, SGI President, the lay organisation of Nichiren Buddhists

“Press on, nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not, nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not, unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education alone will not, the world is full of educated derelicts. Perseverance and determination alone are omnipotent”

The Main Takeaway
The starting point is that it’s absolutely possible, there is no reason why, if you are half decent as an actor, there is no reason why you cant get consistent work.

Ridiculous when I think about the fact I have chosen this creative life, or it has chosen me and I must follow my muse – often grumpily it seems! Or I do nothing and then feel guilty as I watch friends get with their own projects. Hence this podcast is about what techniques we can all use to get the work done and out there, no matter where you work full time as an actor, a choreographer or have a yearning to paint more over the weekends.

I literally ask myself ' Is this Junk or...It allows you not to get sucked into a spiral of negativity, but to be able to stop and say 'yes this is awful but let me focus on something else' whether that is planning your next life steps or indeed calling your bank manager.
From cleaning up your headspace to being compassionate with yourself, when you yet again indulge in more of the habits that don't serve you in the long term, asking 'do this serve me? What is another way that will make me happier, more focused and in the long term reach my goals.

I personally am determined to get some creative goals completed and I am encouraging myself and us all to pick a project and get it finished and out there in the next few months whilst this coronavirus keeps us all in quarantine. Having read extensively on happiness, one of the measures of absolute happiness is seeing yourself work every day towards a goal. Relative happiness is getting something you want and a temporary rush, but absolute happiness is something you can work towards every day. Even in the middle of stress and all the worry about finances and each other, a few words written, or a guitar practised can really help your mental health. The world needs art so much as do us artists need to keep moving it forward, one small step at a time.

Welcome to my podcast (there's a blog too!) on being creative, from that initial sparkle of the thought ‘I could’ to actually finishing it and getting your ‘art’ out there. My 'art' has got there, I have toured globally with my own shows and characters with sell-out runs from Australia to Edinburgh Fringe.

Joss Whedon (Buffy, Marvel Avengers, Firefly) used this question famously to get his 'Much Ado About Nothing' feature film made during a long edit of Marvel Avengers. The black and white Shakespeare movie, which won at Toronto Film Festival, Joss Whedon said in a Fast Company interview, only got made cos of him and his partner keep asking and actioning 'What Next'.

For me, asking 'what next?' rides the project through any inner resistance.
