11. Creativity Isn’t a Luxury: How Creative Expression Fuels Life & Business

In this episode of Embody Your Brilliance, I share why creative expression is a core value in my life and business. It’s not a luxury or a nice-to-have, it’s a non-negotiable.

After nearly two years away, I returned to traditional Korean dance and felt that familiar surge of creative life force moving through my body.

I talk about what this practice means to me as a Korean American eldest daughter of immigrants—and how prioritizing my creative expression actually regulates my nervous system, fuels my business, and helps me feel more alive.

We explore:

  • The backstory: my love for ballet when I was younger, quitting on a “bad day,” and why I’m reclaiming dance now

  • Traditional Korean dance as ancestral remembrance and somatic practice

  • Why creativity sustains momentum (and why “I don’t have time” isn’t the full truth)

  • Shifting creativity from “luxury” to a calendar-backed priority

  • How stage performance translates to visibility, presence, and speaking in business

✨ This is an invitation to reconnect with your creatorship energy and let it support you as both a human and an entrepreneur. Because when your body and spirit are resourced, everything you’re building gets better.

🎧 I’d love to know how this episode resonates with you. What are your top values this season, and which ones are you treating as optional?

And if you’re ready to embody your unique brilliance, share your creative voice in a bigger way, and grow a thriving, profitable, values-aligned business that reflects who you truly are (without overthinking, overworking, or burning out), I would love to support you.
