Empowering Your Creative Flow & Inspired Living
Welcome to Your Creative Chord, the podcast for creatives, artists, musicians, caregivers, and anyone seeking to nurture their creative spark, build creative confidence, and live with more intention, resilience, and joy. I’m Jenny Leigh Hodgins—creative empowerment coach, author, poet, pianist, composer, and longtime creativity mentor.
This podcast helps you rebuild trust in your unique creative process with practical mindset tools, self-care strategies, and curiosity-driven creative exploration. Whether you’re navigating creative blocks, managing burnout, or simply deepening your connection to creativity and inspired living, each episode offers clear, actionable guidance to move forward with confidence and clarity.
Drawing from 30+ years of teaching, composing, caregiving, and my SGI Buddhist practice, I share insights that support nurturing creativity, exploring new ideas, and living a more inspired, authentic life.
