my Top 3 Inspiration Youtube Channels
Oh hello, friends! I hope you're all doing absolutely FANTASTIC! I'm here today to just share some love of some creators that are really helping me stay inspired and helping me stay on my path because they're showing how they're completely staying in theirs. Let’s go, bebe!
BURNPILE
Truly, WHAT a living legend. Stella just is an amazingly awesome human, who is living her best life to the fullest. I aspire to be like her when I grow up because WOW! The LEVEL of creativity, is just unheard or unseen in the world nowadays. She is capable of being so authentic, genuine and honest about all the things that she's sharing in her videos. Even with being constantly inundated with new creators on social media, I've never found anyone quite like her! She cares not only about creativity, but about using sustainable mediums to create her art! Saving the planet from more trash and saving herself with just outputting creatively genius things, is the freakin’ energy I’m looking for! What a blessing to this planet to be surrounded by such bright, beautiful beings like Stella. Check her out, subscribe and support her small business!
Kathleen Illustrated
ANOTHER awe-inspiring artist that never sacrifices an OUNCE of who she is for what she's creating or sharing on the interwebs. She's gifted me with almost too much knowledge on how to master my thrifting techniques to find some magical pieces that I can upcycle and rework into beautiful masterpieces. I adore the quirkyness that pours from her videos and she makes me feel like I truly can make anything that I set my mind to. I also just appreciate her gentleness and understanding in her videos. She knows that it can be a struggle to lean into creativity sometimes for folks, but she encourages us to try and do it anyways! She helps me hold onto my curiosity as I explore the boundless hallways of creativity that live in my head/heart. Such a rad lady through and through!
Take Your Shoes Off Podcast
I'm sure that many will know Rick, but I just wanted to share the joy that his podcast gives me because, normally his podcasts are what I have playing in the studio whenever I'm working on dying shirts or designing. His authenticity is something to be honored! He teaches me how to remain interdependent with people, in a really kind and loving way. He helps me remember that I can choose what my creative output looks like for myself, and the way it's perceived by other people, truly is none of my business. To also see a cis-white-straight man take accountability and responsibility for the actions/words that he's taking in his life, is (unfortunately) a breath of fresh air in this country right now too. Also, his pupperoni, Alvin, is possibly the cutest dog that's ever walked this planet, so even if you don't like comedy, taking a watch just to see Alvin, is also worth it.
So that's it! That's my Top 3 inspiration influencers that I've been watching lately. I share these channels with you because I want this blog to be a place of community! Where we can share things that have brought us love, care, creativity and joy! I love sharing resources and outlets with folks because I believe that we become the things/people that we surround ourselves with and when I surround myself with content from these channels, I feel like my cup is always overflowing with love and creativity and care for this beautiful planet that we're all on and get a chance to experience.
We'd all love to hear from you! So please, take a moment to leave a comment down below letting us know what your favorite channels of inspiration are! I'd also love to know why they impact you positively! I think that it can open new doors for others to find new ways to be impacted positively! Sending you all so much love and care!
Stay soft,
Quentin 💜
