Liminal magic: navigating transitions with Kate Belew

In today’s episode, I’m chatting with the incredible Kate
Belew—author, poet, and Witch—whose work weaves together
creativity and magic in the most enchanting ways. Kate’s
dedication to poetry, the sacred wild, and finding enchantment in
everything she does is truly inspiring.


We dive deep into the magic of liminal spaces—those messy,
vulnerable in-between moments that hold so much potential for
growth in both life and work. With the summer solstice around the
corner, we also explore seasonal transitions and the ways we can
tap into our natural rhythms. We discuss rituals and practices
that help ground us through the ups and downs of the creative
process and how we can work with that energy rather than against
it.


Kate's upcoming book, Word Witch, drops this October, and you can
already pre-order it (check the show notes for the link).

About me


Pascale Côté is a creativity guide, therapeutic arts
practitioner, artist, and writer who helps creatives meet,
understand, and express themselves by guiding them to work *with*
their (creative, complex, unconventional) nature instead of
against it. She helps artists, visionaries, disruptors and earth
stewards break free from the vortex of overthinking and move
forward with their bold, rebellious ideas. Her work challenges
conventional norms, inviting creatives to explore what’s possible
when they release outdated narratives and embrace their true,
authentic expression. Pascale believes that art is a powerful
vehicle for both individual and collective change when it’s
grounded in truth—created outside the rigid systems that stifle
our creative spirit.





About the podcast


Creative minds are the architects of a new world, and their art
holds the keys to reimagining our reality. The challenge is,
creative minds often spend just as much time crafting
self-limiting narratives as they do creating their art. Dear
Creative Mind is a space for creative liberation—a pathway out of
the cycle of overthinking, burnout, and stagnation. This podcast
is for artists & creative entrepreneurs where Pascale,
creativity guide, shares grounding meditations, gentle coaching
guidance and heartfelt conversations with inspiring artists. The
podcast explores the real challenges that come with being
creative—overthinking, self-doubt, burnout—and how to navigate
them while staying true to our vision.
