The Art of Liberation with Amy Tangerine: Inner Child Healing, Akashic Wisdom & the Power of Play
In this radiant episode of The Authentic Creative, I dialogue with the magical Amy Tangerine: artist, author, YouTube creator, and heart-forward creative guide, whose joyful mission is to help us reconnect to our inner child and remember that we are all artists.
Together, we explore:
- The intersection of Amy’s creative work and the healing journey
- How art supplies, stickers, and color can become sacred tools for transformation
- The role of play in spiritual liberation
- The beautiful convergence of our two worlds: Amy’s in liberating creativity and mine in Akashic Record reading
This very convergence is coming to life September 28–30, 2025, in Mt. Hood National Forest, Oregon. Amy and I are co-creating a mystical, magical Goddess of Light Akashic Retreat at a stunning forest Airbnb with an indoor-outdoor hot tub, organic catered meals, private rooms, Transformational Breathwork, cacao ceremony, a waterfall hike, and the Akashic Records wide open.
This retreat also includes a full Akashic Certification journey with:
