In this soul-stirring episode, CJMiller dives deep into the heart of originality in the creative process. Sparked by a listener’s comment that struck a nerve, “Little CJ” makes an honest appearance—offended, vulnerable, and ready to set the record straight.

CJ shares why he refuses to teach style mimicry—and how his method is rooted in helping artists discover their unique mark. Through music, mindfulness, somatic movement, spiritual asemic practices, and even back-and-forth dueling exercises, he guides students into the sacred space where true originality lives.

He also opens up about a painful past experience with a teacher who insisted that everyone paint like him—and how that moment shaped CJ’s commitment to honoring creative individuality.

This episode is a rallying cry for trusting your inner voice, not the loudest voice in the room. Whether you're an artist, seeker, or spiritual traveler, it’s a powerful reminder:

You don’t have to copy anyone to be great.
You already are.

In this inspiring episode, CJ Miller shares a deeply personal story about waiting for a sign from Spirit—and the pivotal lesson he learned about the power of setting an intention. Guided by Dr. Petra’s wisdom, CJ realized that Spirit knows our gifts, but as co-creators, we must choose and ask.

Reflecting on Matthew 7:7-8 — "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you" — CJ explores how intention activates the creative process. He encourages listeners to claim their desires with clarity and participate fully in co-creation.

Through mindful creative practices and the art of self-discovery, CJ reveals how we are all spiritually connected—and reminds us that there are as many possibilities as stars in the sky. The episode closes with a simple yet powerful visualization to help you set your own sacred intention today.

In this soulful episode, CJ Miller speaks with contemporary artist Victoria Tara, whose captivating paintings emerge from meditation, healing, and devotion. Raised by the Sea of Azov in southeastern Ukraine and now rooted in Miami, Victoria blends Eastern and Western traditions to create visual meditations—paintings that act as portals to inner peace.

She shares the moment her artistic path became clear while participating in Kumbh Mela, the world’s largest spiritual gathering at the sacred river Sangam, where dualities dissolve and Oneness is remembered. In the river, she received a vision and a word: Yantra—the ancient Hindu symbol of divine geometry. Today, she leads workshops where participants paint yantras as intentional meditations.

Victoria and CJ explore the role of stillness, the symbolic power of the lotus flower, and what it means to paint from a place beyond thought. Her work invites us into the space between the sounds, where the essence of light—beyond any name—reveals itself.

Art becomes the practice. The painting becomes the prayer.
