Have you ever been asked, “What’s your passion?”—and found yourself coming up blank? In this heartfelt episode, CJMiller explores why so many of us feel disconnected from our deepest loves, and how passion is often something we remember, not find.

Drawing from personal stories, childhood insights, and spiritual reflection, CJ shares how our Creative DNA is imprinted long before society, money, or fear pulls us off course. You’ll be guided to reconnect with what once lit you up—without explanation, without apology.

This episode includes a powerful visualization exercise to help you quiet the noise and listen for the passions you may have been ignoring. Because when you honor what you love, you step into the joy of your true expression—as a Spiritual Artist, here to create from the inside out.

In this episode, CJ Miller shares a foundational insight for every creative: your best art doesn’t start with materials or technique—it starts with your state of being.

While many artists focus on what board to use or how to blend colors, CJ invites us to explore what he calls the space before creation—that quiet, present-centered awareness where alignment begins. As a spiritual artist, he’s learned that when he first connects with his emotions, body, and inner presence, his creative work becomes more powerful, intuitive, and alive.

CJ introduces his Alignment and Receptivity model—a simple but profound tool to monitor your creative state—and explains why your first job as an artist is to step into presence. When you’re in alignment, you can hear Creative Intelligence speak. You’re not forcing art into existence—you’re allowing it.

“Don’t focus so much on what you’re doing. Hold it lightly. But don’t lose yourself in unconsciousness.”

If you’ve ever felt blocked or disconnected in the studio, this episode offers a powerful reframe:
Align first. Then apply your technique. That’s where the real art begins.

In this deeply inspiring episode of The Spiritual Artist Podcast, CJMiller sits down with Antoinette Roze, visionary CEO of WPC Speakers Global Agency and host of the SPEAKPact Podcast. With over 30 years of experience, Antoinette helps experts transform into sought-after speakers, guiding them to increase their impact, income, and influence through the art of storytelling and authentic voice.

But Antoinette’s story begins long before the stage. Diagnosed with late-stage cancer as a child and navigating the foster care system, she shares her powerful journey of survival, spirit, and self-discovery. From refusing treatments that made her feel sicker to trusting her inner knowing, Antoinette's healing path led her to explore alternative wellness, host her own Texas Natural Wellness Expo, and ultimately become a passionate advocate for non-toxic, non-invasive healing—body, mind, and spirit.

Together, CJ and Antoinette explore:

✨ The moment that awakened her awareness and led to a life of service
✨ How to map your core talk and create a speaker's story bank
✨ Why authenticity comes from subtracting, not adding
✨ The difference between speaking to perform and speaking to transform
✨ How to “listen with release” and stay genuinely curious
✨ Why your voice is your power, and must never be buried

From motivational speaker coaching to spiritual insight, Antoinette encourages listeners to step into their truth, collect the data of their life, and share their message to create microtransformations in others.

💬 “Speak from your scars, not your open wounds.”
🎧 “Connection isn’t about you—it’s about them.”

This episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to find their voice, tell their story, and step fully into their purpose—on stage or in life.

In this heartfelt episode, CJMiller shares a personal story about teaching his son to drive—and the spiritual metaphor that unfolded along the way.

While navigating Central Expressway, a car sped by, weaving in and out of traffic. Instead of reacting, CJ pulled aside and let it pass. It became the perfect teaching moment: when someone operates from chaotic or aggressive energy, you don’t have to match it. Let them meet their own energy.

This story expands into a larger reflection on life. As CJ explains to his son, everything operates on a spiritual level. The consciousness of a reckless driver will eventually attract a similar consciousness. Our job is to hold steady—to stay centered in love. When we react, retaliate, or try to “win,” we step away from our love base.

Drawing inspiration from Abraham-Hicks and the concept of staying in the “vortex,” CJ explores the challenge of maintaining spiritual alignment in a world that constantly pulls us toward fear, outrage, and distraction. Whether it's doomscrolling on social media, toxic conversations, or drama-driven entertainment, we’re being called to a higher practice: holding the vibration of Love.

Be the broader Love. This isn’t romantic love—it’s the universal Love that ancient cultures and spiritual traditions have named again and again. The Greeks called it Agape. In Buddhism, it's Mettā—loving-kindness. In Hinduism, Bhakti. In Catholic mysticism, Caritas. In New Thought, it is the Creative Intelligence behind all form—Love as a force that moves through everything and asks for nothing in return.

CJ shares how he's begun pulling back from negative media and limiting his exposure to people who feed off fear and anger—not out of judgment, but to protect and nurture his own vibration. He encourages you to do the same: gently guide conversations back toward light, or walk away when necessary.

We’re often taught that we have to fix the problems we see. But sometimes, the highest form of action is demonstration. Be the lighthouse. Engage in passive resistance. Send money to organizations you believe in. Set intentions, offer prayers, donate to the disadvantaged. Staying in Love Consciousness is enough. Don’t push against—go toward Agape Love.

This episode is a gentle yet powerful reminder: we don’t fix the world by sinking to its level. We change it by holding our ground in Love, and letting others rise to meet us there—when they’re ready.

Want to improve your artwork? It might be time to look beyond your brushstrokes—and into your mind. In this episode, CJ Miller explores how the thoughts you carry into the studio directly affect your creative process, your confidence, and even the final piece.

Drawing inspiration from The Spiritual Artist, Eckhart Tolle, and contemplative wisdom from Father Richard Rohr, CJ shares practical tools to help you monitor your thoughts, practice presence, and awaken a deeper connection to your art.

You’ll learn:

• How being present in the studio improves flow
• Why watching your thoughts is the first step to creative clarity
• What happens when you stop judging and start observing with curiosity
• Breathing and body awareness practices that anchor you in the Now
• How to start a parking lot journal for mental clutter

Whether you’re painting, sculpting, or simply navigating life as a creative, this episode is a gentle reminder that your mind and your art are deeply connected.
The Spiritual Artist learns to listen—before the brush ever hits the canvas.

In this episode, CJ shares a recent experience of true connection after being invited to a student’s home for an artist playdate. Surrounded by different materials and supplies, they created art, exchanged ideas, and rediscovered the joy of in-person community.

But why is this kind of gathering so rare today? CJ explores how social media, the “junk food of social life,” gives the illusion of connection but leaves us feeling empty—much like a fast-food meal that satisfies in the moment but lacks real nourishment. From doom-scrolling to quick-click interactions, we’ve replaced deep relationships with fleeting digital moments.

Where are the bookstores, cafés, and gathering spots where we once met new people? Instead of engaging in real-world community, we isolate behind screens. But there’s hope.

CJ announces his new Creative Spirit Community program, launching this August at Unity Church of Dallas. Meeting on the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month, this gathering will include a talk, meditation, and small-group discussions to foster genuine connection.

Want to start building community today? CJ is offering five free copies of his book to anyone who hosts a book club at home. Or, if nothing else, just pick up the phone and make lunch plans with one friend. Real relationships start with small steps.

What calls you?

We spend so much of our time wrapped up in what we should do—clean the house, pay the bills, check off the endless to-do list. But what if we set aside the “shoulds” for a moment and listened to what truly calls us? What if Spirit speaks, not through obligation, but through excitement?

In this episode, I explore the powerful concept of the Daimon, as introduced in James Hillman’s The Soul’s Code. This inner guide—your unique blueprint—has been with you since birth, nudging you toward your true destiny. I share a personal moment of realization, where a simple painting reminded me of my own creative calling.

What brings you joy? What sparks that deep inner yes? In my book, The Spiritual Artist (available on Amazon), I call this your Intelligence of Being—the unique code within you that guides your creative and spiritual journey. Today, I challenge you to listen to that voice—the one that knows your path better than your to-do list ever could.

When you hear the calling, what will you do?

While tending to the garden, The Spiritual Artist Podcast host CJ Miller reflects on the deeper spiritual truths revealed through nature. Inspired by the resilience of a simple dandelion, CJ explores how Creative Intelligence expresses itself through diversity, adaptability, and the unstoppable force of life.

In response to those who seek to limit the freedoms of others, CJ shifts focus to the spiritual reality—one where God, in infinite wisdom, operates through love. Just as nature finds a way to thrive despite obstacles, so too do truth, freedom, and diversity.

Through the lens of the natural world, CJ shares how shifting perspective can reveal deeper meaning. Even what is labeled as a nuisance—like dandelions—has a role to play in the grand design, benefiting pollinators and enriching the ecosystem. In the same way, every expression of life holds value.

The power of Spirit cannot be stopped. While temporary forces may appear to dominate, nature always finds a way. Spirit always prevails. Diversity is not just supported by God—it is God’s very demonstration.
