The Create! Podcast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Kat consistently delivers insightful, inspiring and motivational wisdom. I look forward to it every week. She somehow manages to balance the importance of expressing our creativity with the necessity of making it work financially. Her guests are terrific, but I have to say, I especially love the solo podcasts where she shares her own creative journey. She does it with such authenticity, that you feel like she really “gets us.” Thanks for the work you do for the creative community, Kat!

After reading The Complete Smartist Guide and The Creative Business Handbook by Ekaterina Popova and Alicia Puig, I started listening to this podcast - and it has been exactly what I needed. I am an artist almost ready to quit my day job. Balancing my two “lives” isn’t easy, but listening to Kat interview artist after artist, along with art business gurus, has been incredibly inspiring. She has curated a collection of episodes that blend just the right amount of girl-boss energy with healing, trauma-informed practices, and practical know-how. I appreciate the art biz insights, but it’s Kat’s overall positive and resilient approach to life, art, and business that keeps me coming back. Thank you, Kat and Alicia, for all that you do for your communities!

Kat’s podcast has been a beacon of light and hope this summer after my son was born! I was so afraid of losing my artist identity as a new mom, and this podcast became my lifeline in connecting to the Art world and not feeling so alone. Since I began listening, I’ve been answering more calls for art and applying to galleries, and just the practice of moving past my anxiety around applications has felt so good. I feel like every episode has been a delicious, bite-sized reminder of how we can do whatever we set our minds to. Kat, I can’t thank you enough for creating this podcast!!

I’ve listened to The Create! Podcast since the beginning, and it’s been such a gift in my art journey. Ekaterina Popova shares her experience with such honesty, warmth, and generosity that every episode feels like a conversation with a trusted friend. Her openness about life as a painter and entrepreneur has inspired me for years and helped me grow with more confidence, joy, and purpose in my own art practice. Thank you, Kat, for creating this beautiful, uplifting space for artists everywhere!
