A podcast to help you kickstart your creative practice, stay inspired, and find the confidence to share your work with people who really need to see it.

Every fortnight, I sit down with artists, writers, scientists, gallerists and other influential experts and asks them to share their stories, tools and strategies for living a creative life so you, too, can make work that matters, for people who care.

Don’t break the chain: Secrets to Staying Creatively Limber with Mary Jo Hoffman

Kind Words

  • "I have to tell you how much I love reading your articles. They inspire me; they expand my thoughts and ideas and push me to be a better, more thoughtful person. Thank you for all you do."

    RONNI SILVER

  • "Like many, I subscribe to a number of newsletters from people I've come across on my creative journey, but yours is one of the few I read right to the end. So, thank you for taking the time to communicate your thoughts and pass on ideas – it’s always a joy to read."

    ABBY READER

  • "I’ve been so impressed by your newsletter. Your ideas, recommendations and musings are always an inspiration."

    DIANE SANDERS

  • “Love these emails and their links to wonderful items of interest. Well done and thank you”

    MIKE JONES

  • "As usual your little letters touch the soul of things that are beautiful’"

    PETER WARNE

  • “I love receiving your emails! They pop into my inbox, and I read them immediately – they make me step off the conveyor belt of life and take me to another place, where art is king, and I am allowed to indulge myself!”

    KIM TATTERSALL

  • "I believe the best compliment a writer can receive is that he/she has caused the reader to think and in rare occasions, inspire. Your writing does just that, thank you."
