I’m Kathleen Hassan and I am living proof that it’s never too late to create a life that you absolutely love.

After nearly thirty years as a motivational speaker and life coach, helping thousands of people live their best life, it was high time I took my own advice and listened to the stirrings of my soul. My art had been calling to me for so long, but I was too busy to listen. It took a global pandemic to get me to slow down enough to gain access to my own inner wisdom. I have fallen madly in love with painting and the rush of creating art from my own imagination. To have other people love it and want it in their home is the greatest thrill imaginable.

If you need a “hit of inspiration” to connect you to your inner muse, sign up for my newsletter and receive a free meditation called Manifesting the Muse. The compulsion to portray one’s vivid and active inner world is a powerful drive that many artists share. Yet, just as powerful are the barriers—self-doubt, fear of judgment, or simply feeling creatively blocked—that hold them back from expressing their true artistic voice. To help overcome these barriers, I created a meditation designed to guide you inward and help you connect with your inner artist, allowing your authentic creativity to flow freely. By joining my community, you’ll be the first to know about my latest works of art, upcoming exhibitions, and new classes where you can dive deeper into your creative expression. You’ll also get a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the lives of the guest artists I have on my Art Junkie Podcast. Don’t wait for inspiration to strike, it’s waiting for you to unleash it. As I say at the end of every Art Junkie episode, “Don’t bogart that art—share your gifts and talents with the world.
