In this episode of The Creative Advantage, host Nicole Shannon speaks with San Francisco Bay Area-based visual artist, metalsmith, and educator Amy Tavern about the creative strategies that have guided her through a dynamic, non-linear careerโ€”from music student to arts administrator to acclaimed artist and teacher.

Through careful, intentional work, Amy turns personal experience into something others can connect with, offering care, reflection, and shared humanity.

This conversation is an exploration of Amyโ€™s creative practice as well as her transformative life journey. Her story reveals how creative problem-solving, intentional daily habits, and openness to possibility can help anyone navigate uncertainty, overcome challenges, and move toward a more meaningful, resilient path.
