64. Beth Pickens

Beth Pickens is a Los Angeles-based consultant for artists and arts organizations. Since 2010 she has provided career consultation, grant writing, fundraising, and financial, project, and strategic planning services for artists and arts organizations throughout the U.S. She understands artists as people who are deeply, profoundly compelled to be creatively engaged. She is the author of Make Your Art No Matter What: Moving Beyond Creative Hurdles, published in 2021, and Your Art Will Save Your Life, published in 2018.



She and I discuss working with artists, how life is hard, having an extra soul, returning to yourself, death, God wrestling, spiritual practice, soul traits: patience, silence and responsibility, awesome fear, durations projects, zero room for regret, and a guide for living!
