About The Happy, Healthy Artist: Worry Less, Improve Your Health & Create a Sustainable Creative Career:
Worry Less, Move More & Create a Sustainable Writing or Creative Career Today! I love being an artist. Creativity is my passion, my joy. And I’m good at it. I’m an award-winning artist, a prolific author and the Amazon #1 bestselling author of over twenty non-fiction books, including, How to Find Your Passion and Purpose, Mid-Life Career Rescue, Bounce, The Prosperous Author: The Millionaire Mindset, and The Art of Success.
As Mollie Mathews, I also have fun writing romance novels, including Flight of Passion, Love in Venice, and The Italian Billionaire’s Christmas Bride. Because I love what I do, it doesn’t feel like work at all. In fact, just the opposite—but If I’m not careful, I forget to look out for myself. I forget to eat. I forget to stretch my legs, I forget to program my mindset for success—and all the other health behaviours that sustain my writing and creative career.
Stress, burnout, anxiety, and depression descend, and before long, I doubt I am an artist. I doubt I can write, paint, take beautiful photos, generate ideas, or do anything creative. I stop believing I can make a living from my writing and my creativity. I lose my joy.
If you’ve found this book, chances are that this is how you feel too. But there is a quick fix, there is a cure—and you’ll find my best health, wellness and productivity cures inside this book. The Happy, Healthy Artist offers short sound bites of stand-alone readings designed to help you cultivate resilience and awareness amid the challenges of earning a daily living. Brimming with a smorgasbord of easy-to-apply strategies that will boost your mental, emotional and physical well-being, The Happy, Healthy Artist is a timeless call to holistic action for anyone who wants to create a sustainable, joyful, writing and creative career.
If you want to write and create with passion, purpose, and joy
If you want to have more energy and fire in your belly
If you want to overcome procrastination or creative inertia
If you want to create a long-term writing or artistic career…
Then The Happy, Healthy Artist is exactly the right book for you—whoever you are, whatever you ache to create, and however, you define health, happiness, and prosperity. The ideas described in this book apply to anyone who’s trying to inject some purposeful creative productivity into their life and work. As a bestselling author, award-winning artist, holistic therapist, and creativity expert (BCA, Dip Psych) The Happy, Healthy Artist I challenge the myth of the overworked artist.
In The Happy, Healthy Artist I share dozens of insights based on survey research, my professional achievements and the success secrets of extraordinary artists, authors and creative entrepreneurs like Tim Ferriss, Coco Chanel, Leonardo da Vinci, James Patterson, Paulo Coelho, Nora Roberts, Arianna Huffington, Oprah, Isabel Allende, Zaha Hadid, Georiga O’Keeffe, and many more. These successful authors and artists know the ultimate success secret—your health is your wealth and the gateway to prosperous productivity.
