Trust the Dress

Trust the Dress

Trust the Dress is a podcast about creativity, visual elegance, gentle change and style. It’s about experiences that can beautify your life, infuse you with courage, confidence and help generate joyful vibes. This podcast is hosted by Elena Sullivan. I am a photographer and creative adventurer who one day took a 180-degree turn and changed my life. With a one-way ticket, a camera, and 3000 USD in my bank account, I flew halfway around the world to a country I had never been to and didn’t speak the language. I stayed there for nine years, built a photography business. And it all started with the question “What if I try” Being inquisitive is part of human nature, and questions are a road map to a life full of enthusiasm, appreciation and happiness. “Trust the Dress” is not about perfection, but INSPIRATION with capital letters. I want this podcast to be a place where we DON’T talk about how to achieve more, be more, and earn more, but rather how to experience more, enjoy life more, and create a joyful flow in everyday life. I will talk about art and design, creativity and colors, personal style, travel and culture, visual elegance, and the aesthetics of everyday life. Why should you “Trust the dress”? How to find a balance between business goals, personal life, and grace? What is visual elegance? Where is it better to look for inspiration? When is the right time to change your life? How to have an elegant lifestyle and financial independence? Answers for these and many other questions are going to part of “Trust the dress” podcast. Join me every week for a new episode. This podcast ”Trust the Dress” is a part of my creative project and website fineartislifestyle.com

"Happiness isn't solely about quantity; it thrives in the realm of quality. To embrace happiness, prioritize enriching your life with captivating, innovative, and stimulating experiences. Challenge your own boundaries, venture beyond limiting beliefs, and explore the new. By fostering curiosity and occasionally going against the current, you can curate your unique and exceptional happiness."

Creativity is one of the key elements in personal growth and an amazing process that unfolds your potential in a gentle way. Creativity is not about the quantity of something but rather about how you use what you have at your disposal. The abundance of materials is not a prerequisite for creativity; on the contrary, sometimes, the absence of something can fire up creative thinking.

2 - Don't concentrate on perfection! 

3 - Get ready to feel comfortable while feeling uncomfortable.
