Welcome to The Mama Artist Podcast where I help creative mamas like you reclaim your artistic practice while embracing the beautiful chaos of motherhood. I'm Coco, your host and fellow mama artist. In this episode, I answer your heartfelt questions about navigating creativity during summer months with children at home. After years of watching mama artists put their creative practice on hold for entire summers, creating damaging disconnects, I've discovered that summer requires us to reimagine rather than abandon our creative work.

Learn how to create meaningful work with kids present through micro sessions and parallel activities, maintain creative momentum through constant disruptions using portable continuity tools, and find inspiration within summer's unique rhythms by embracing seasonal immersion. Discover why summer isn't a creative obstacle to overcome, but a different creative season with its own unique gifts.
