The Authentic Creative: expanding our capacity to feel good
Welcome to The Authentic Creative with Siri Baruc Thornton: a top 2% globally ranked podcast for women who are ready to expand their capacity to feel good, embody their truth, and create from wholeness.
Here, we explore what it really means to live and lead from authenticity. What if feeling good in your body, your work, and your life isn’t indulgent, but the key to everything?
Each week, you’ll hear intimate conversations with artists, entrepreneurs, healers, and visionaries who are redefining success through creativity and embodiment. Alongside these stories, host Siri Baruc Thornton: Reiki Master Teacher, Transformational Breathwork guide, retreat creator, and podcaster — shares grounded spiritual tools, somatic practices, and lived wisdom from her work leading retreats for women around the world.
You’ll also be invited into monthly women’s circles and leadership panels, where diverse voices gather around a new theme each time, exploring embodiment, abundance, creativity, leadership, or the art of truly feeling good.
With listeners in over 65 countries, this podcast is both sanctuary and spark: a reminder that you don’t need to push to create, or perform to belong. You get to feel good. You get to embody your truth. And from that place, your most authentic life and art flow effortlessly.

The Authentic Creative: expanding our capacity to feel good
When the Room Shifted: 5 Minute Meditations, Co Regulation + Motherhood with Jessie Larson
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, I dialogue with Jessie Larson, co creator of Five Minute Meditations for Kids, about how simple, intentional moments can shift the entire energy of a home.
I share the story of playing her meditation in the ER while Bodhi’s arm was being reset, and how everything changed. What could have been chaos became calm, connected, and deeply held.
We explore co regulation, how our nervous systems shape our children’s, and why even 2 to 5 minutes can interrupt anxiety and create real emotional shifts.
This is a conversation about motherhood, overwhelm, and the reminder that it doesn’t have to be complicated to be powerful.
“Time slowed down, and I felt like we were wrapped in this bubble of love.”
“You are a good mom. We’re all doing our best.”
Connect with Jessie at Five Minute Meditations for Kids on Instagram, YouTube, and all podcast platforms.
If this journey is resonating and you feel called to deepen into the embodiment of these themes, I offer private 12 session breathwork journeys inspired by the chapters of The Artist’s Way.
I am also hosting The Authentic Creative: Breathwork and Reiki by the Sea, a women’s retreat taking place May 3 to 6 on the Oregon Coast. There are a few spots remaining. If you feel curious, you are welcome to email me and we can explore together whether it is the right fit.
Thank you for walking this devotional path with me. I am deeply honored to share this creative and healing journey alongside you.
