Welcome to the very first public episode of The Complete Creative! I’m Brie Stockwell—creative coach, photographer, musician, adventurer, and mom—and this podcast is where we ditch perfection, embrace the messy middle, and learn to create satisfying, extraordinary lives on our own terms.

In this episode, I’m sharing the real story behind launching this podcast (again), why I chose to re-record my intro without a script, and what it means to create before you feel ready. I also open up about the emotional rollercoaster of preparing to sell our beloved home in Texas, what it’s revealing about grief, stress, and the power of breathing, walking, and self-compassion. Spoiler: I had a full-blown meltdown—and I’m telling you why that moment taught me more than any polished plan ever could.

If you’re navigating a big shift or trying to create something that really matters to you, this one’s for you.
