Born Creators
We are all born creators – but, we forget. This show is your weekly reminder that even as adults, we get to make it all up as we grow. Hosted by Toni Dawkins, an artist, guide and intuitive channel, Born Creators explores ”creator consciousness” through conversation. In each episode, Toni and her guests (leaders, artists, mold-breakers) discuss how they face doubt, fear, and resistance on their path to fully embodying the Creator within. Here, it’s never too late to color outside the lines, leave the boxes behind and reclaim your birthright as a creator of your own life.

In this season finale episode, Toni dives into the power of surrender, exploring how this sacred act allows us to get out of our own way to make space for Source (the ultimate Creator) to place us on a more rewarding, fulfilling, and aligned path; one that may not make sense to the mind but speaks to the truth of our Souls.

To become someone we've never been, we have to do things we've never done. And that is when our inner critic gets very, very LOUD.
Chetna Mehta, a multidisciplinary artist, alchemist, and creativity doula, shares profound wisdom on how to connect with the inner critic instead of fighting against it, allowing us to experience true creative freedom and end generational cycles. In this powerful conversation, we explore what it takes to shift from being on autopilot to living as conscious, embodied creators.
