Santa Fe/Seattle fine artist Robbi Firestone and mindful marketer Kimberly Maska discuss spiritual entrepreneurship on Maska’s weekly podcast
Santa Fe, NM (PRWEB) September 25, 2014 -- Artist Robbi Firestone divulged stepping stones to entrepreneurial success, selling her first oil portrait, conscious business, and inspirational business strategies in a recent interview with mind, body, spirit marketing extraordinaire Kimberly Maska.
Kimberly Maska recently launched a new podcast (available on iTunes), called Mindfully Marketing, focusing on marketing strategies for today's mind, body, spirit thought leaders. Maska says, “It is always so incredible to see someone turn their passion into a thriving business. I want to be able to share knowledge and experience with my listeners.”
Firestone, who admits to struggling in New York City advertising at a young age, is a likely candidate for mindful marketing. As a fine artist, creativity retreat facilitator, workshop instructor, and creator of SantaFeArtClasses.com, Firestone openly admits the struggles in accepting that money is not at odds with spirituality.
Firestone’s lifelong curiosity with ancient wisdom and new thought prompted her current project, Twelve Global Visionaries. Don Miguel Ruiz, best selling author of The Four Agreements, and Dr. Michael Bernard Beckwith, Founder of Agape International Spiritual Center and contributor to global best selling book and film, The Secret, have personally met with Firestone for their portraits. Twelve Global Visionaries promises to be a distinctive body of work infusing each sitter’s teachings into audiences where they might not normally be found: politics and art.
“Somehow we are taught to see money as if it’s some evil thing. That is a true disadvantage for those of us who focus on spirituality... I am committed to being a distribution point for good. Success and money are powerful tools for healing,” states Firestone.
Maska began her spiritual journey several years ago. During the sudden illness and death of her mother, Martha, she understood the lessons she learned from the great spiritual leaders like Deepak Chopra, Eckhart Tolle and Rumi, to name a few. She has made it her mission to help Mind Body Spirit Thought Leaders reach as many people as possible with their beautiful and life changing messages.
Firestone was deeply inspired by T. Harv Eker’s, Secrets of the Millionaire Mind and considers it incredible schooling for mind, body, spirit entrepreneurs. One of the biggest takeaways is to rarely watch television until you are financially free. Instead, Firestone uses this time to reading, studying investing and marketing, and keeping her spiritual practices in check. Maska says the same lesson applies to social media and computer time.
Firestone says it’s been a long journey to accepting her passion and following her life’s journey. Advice for others itching to unleash creativity? “Go and spend the next 10,000 hours toward what you love, because you’re inevitably going to either choose that passion at some point in your life, or die exhausted because you never did.”
