Samantha Wills: Creativity Is the Ultimate Spiritual Connection - My Spiritual Side | Lyssna här

From The Spiritual Book Club.

Samantha Wills is a creative visionary - a woman who’s learned to follow feeling over logic, and to heed the quiet whispers of the soul that are constantly vying for our attention.

It’s what led her to create a global jewellery empire - one of Australia’s greatest fashion success stories - and then, in a life-defining act of courage, walk away from it all to make way for her next evolution.

Samantha joined us in The Spiritual Book Club to discuss her powerful memoir, Of Gold and Dust - a story of transformation, healing, and the magic that can unfold when we trust wholeheartedly in our intuition.

In this conversation, she shares why seeking validation from the outside world can be a dangerous trap, why it’s vital we pay attention to the nudges from the universe, and how creativity is the ultimate spiritual connection.

In this episode, Samantha shares:

* Her daily spiritual practice: sitting down to create

* Her method to follow feelings over logic

* Trusting in the Universe, even when it’s not what we think we want

* The purpose of life is to keep moving forward and evolving

* The trap of seeking validation from outside of ourselves

* The gift of vulnerability

* The breakdown that led to Samantha’s spiritual awakening

* Tuning in to the ‘whispers’ of our soul

Key Quotes

“Our intuition does not lie to us”.

“That soul whisper, if it lingers on it turns into the feeling of regret or remorse, or 'I knew that and I didn't act on it’. That is the worst outcome for this life”.

“‘I like to zoom out like you're on Google Maps and just look at how big everything is. When we're in our heads, our world becomes so small. I use that visual to see it's all going to be okay. We just need to take a step back”.

“The universe only ever has three answers: Yes, not right now, or ‘I have something better in store for you’’.

“We don't have control of the timeline. We can put up the desire, but be flexible with how we get to that vision. Put the wish up and then release it”.

Spiritual practice: Being creative.
