Leaving substack with a gift
Last month, I said I’d be doing a bi-weekly advice column there. I wrote one, then I didn’t write another! That’s because I’m leaving Substack (unless the spirit moves me to return some day; never say never.)
One reason is because I’m pouring my creative energy into so many new things behind the scenes. What was going to be the advice column has turned into my new podcast coming out this spring! Do you have any questions you’d like me to answer on the podcast? Hit reply.
In the podcast, I’ll answer questions from you, as well as talk with other culture makers about creative living.
Never fear, this news doesn’t mean you need to subscribe to a new email service. You’ll still get emails from me; they will be less Substack-essay-ish and shorter, more conversational. (If you’re just ‘following’ on Substack instead of subscribing, make sure you’re subscribed!)
I’m excited to share lots of new things with you.
In related news, if you’ve been in the vicinity of Maria Bowler headquarters for a while, you know I’m not a fan of trying to “overcome” your creative blocks and challenges. I think your resistance has wisdom in it. I talk about this from a lot of different angles and work with my clients on it, but I wanted to give people an experience of it before stepping into one of my coaching containers.
I made something for you that I think you’ll love!
This is an experiential and intuitive guided audio experience to work with any resistance you have about doing something you say you want to do.
After you listen, share it with a friend and let me know what it reveals to you!
Talk to you soon,
Maria
P.S. If you’re reading this on Substack, make sure you’re actually subscribed to Make Human (this newsletter) instead of just following. For some reason, those are different things and if you’re not subscribed, you won’t get emails moving forward!




The notes of caution say not to use the summary as a substitute, but for those of us that can’t hear, are we missing anything significant we should keep in mind while still following the listed steps? (Thank you!)
The audio is gold! ✨ led me to a beautiful insight and a funny, perfect idea. Thank you. Looking forward to the podcast :)
