Great interview with Christine. I loved what she said about pushing yourself beyond what you like in your work. That's the edge... the place where it might be a bit uncomfortable because it is new and unknown for me. Thanks for sharing your insights Christine. Tyou Jaime for another great interview.
Oh, I could have listened to this interview all day long! :) Christine, you are a creative powerhouse. I had so much fun listening to both you and Jamie. There is lots to be said for just getting down to work and Doing It! You are a wonderful example of the incredible things that can happen with a little self-commitment.
Thank you for sharing your creative self! :)
Inspiring and wonderful interview. I fully enjoy and wait every Friday to hear the next interview!~
Here's to stepping out of the the "safety zone." Thanks for another inspiring interview.
oh I love this woman, this goddess of FIERCE DETERMINATION!
thank you Jamie for this wonderful, insightful interview!!
bisous, Elizabeth
Another fantastic interview! WOW! I enjoyed it very much...
What a fabulous interview. So nice to hear her voice and so inspiring. Thank you for sharing this.
Great interview, Jamie and Christine! Loved it!!
I loved Christines remark regarding having a dead line to get something done. I have realized lately that I must also have that line! and that it's okay, make the date and work towards that goal :)
thanks Christine for letting me know I'm not the only one!
blessings,

Great interview! I've listened to it four or five times now and will probably listen to it a few more times. I'm a big fan of Christine's and really enjoyed being touched by her wisdom and her joy.
I'm a big believer in just showing up at the canvas and doing the work on a regular basis, so I really appreciated hearing her echo that sentiment. I also loved hearing her say that she's a deadline girl, because I really need them, too. Unfortunately, self-imposed deadlines don't work for me. I need the pressure of an external deadline.
Can't wait for the next interview!
Thank you again Jamie...I am glad everyone has been enjoying the interview!
Such great advice, Christine. I needed to hear this. Thanks for another awesome interview, Jamie.
