#18 Creating Calm from Chaos with Anna Macdonald (Part 2): Organising Your Creative Life
In Part 2 of my conversation with minimalist artist and founder of The Organised Artist, Anna Macdonald, we dive even deeper into how she created clarity and calm in the midst of life’s chaos.
Anna shares how her experience with ADHD, anxiety, and motherhood led her to seek a more peaceful, structured way of living and how her passion for minimalism, organisation, and creativity came together to support her own healing. Now she's helping artists to take control of their lives, through her membership - The Organised Artist.
We talk about:
The overstimulation creatives often experience and how to gently reduce it
How physical space affects emotional wellbeing and creative focus
The power of giving yourself permission to do what feels right
Simple ways to create structure when time, energy, or brain space is limited
How Anna discovered her gift and built a business around helping others do the same
Whether you’re navigating overwhelm, ADHD, or just craving a more intentional way of creating and living, this episode offers both comfort and practical insight.
🌿 LISTEN NOW to hear how Anna turned personal challenges into a calm, connected creative life and how you can too.
