    THH056—Tears of a Clown can be the Source for Healing the World

    THH056—Tears of a Clown can be the Source for Healing the World

    In this reflective episode, host Dr. Fred Moss revisits his conversation with previous guest Benjamin Kintisch, a talented musician who described himself as a "sad clown." 

    Dr. Fred explores the concept of the sad clown and relates it to his own difficulties and sadness in life. He discusses how pain and wounds from childhood often remain unresolved, but creative people like Benjamin can channel these feelings into art, music, and other outlets.

    The discussion centers on how the rawness of pain is transmuted into beautiful works of creativity and self-expression. Dr. Fred emphasizes the "creative eight" - art, music, dance, drama, and more - as healing forms of expression. 

    He notes that entertainers and artists frequently have sadness and roughness in their past, which emerges through their creative gifts. There is a special harmonic resonance between creative people sharing their gifts and the audience receiving them.

    Dr. Fred concludes that the "tears of the clown" can become a source of healing the world, as people's vulnerabilities and creative expressions weave together.

    Tune in for a thoughtful meditation on how our deepest pains can be channeled into the creativity that connects and heals us.

    Find healing and meaning through creativity and connection. 

    Tune into this week's The Healthy Healer podcast as host Dr. Fred Moss has a fascinating conversation with musician, cantor, chaplain, and songwriter Benjamin Kintisch. 

    Benjamin shares the inspirational story behind his original musical "Life Review," which was born from his experiences as a hospice chaplain and weaves together patient stories into songs. Listen as he explains his 10-year process of nurturing this musical and how he has adapted it into virtual performances during the pandemic. 

    You'll be moved as Benjamin performs a soothing lullaby from the musical live on guitar that exemplifies how his music provides comfort and healing. His message about the importance of visiting loved ones, especially those who are sick or dying, is an impactful takeaway.

    Delving into themes of creativity and healing, Dr. Fred discusses his book "The Creative Healing Through Creativity and Self Expression" and Benjamin opens up about childhood pain and being a "sad clown" who channels difficulties through creative outlets. 

    This conversation explores fascinating topics like the psychology of creativity, finding meaning through life stories, and pivoting creative projects due to COVID-19. Benjamin's talents as a musician, cantor, chaplain, and songwriter along with his inspirational story make him a not-to-be-missed guest.

    Tune into this episode to be inspired, find healing through creativity, and reconnect with what matters most.

    Patricia Nowakowski | All That Glitters Is Not Gold: Staying on Track with Your Priority This Year

    Patricia Nowakowski | All That Glitters Is Not Gold: Staying on Track with Your Priority This Year
    Patricia Nowakowski: Business Coach, Owner, Opulent Beauty Salon.

    Welcome back to today’s episode with Nicola about how to avoid getting off track this year with ‘shiny’ projects and staying on track for success with purpose and clarity.

    It is so easy to start a new year with inspirations, creative projects, and goals only to find a few months in we are distracted by new fads and trends, copying what everyone else is doing and then finding half the year has disappeared and we haven’t made any progress.

    Patricia Nowakowski, owner of Opulent Beauty Salon in Illinois and Business Coach shares her experiences of Nicola’s mentoring to help her get clear, stay on track, and pick which ideas where the best for her business and discover her purpose, and her why that made her feel fulfilled and create sustainable growth.

    Patricia has been a trailblazer in the beauty industry for over a decade. She created a handtied extension method called Grace Hand Tied, after identifying gaps and holes in the current hair extension market. She now teaches monthly classes about this method application and has taught stylists across the country. Now, her latest goal is to help other stylists grow their businesses and connect with their leadership, by helping them define the foundational systems they need in place to create the freedom and lifestyle they want.
