Episode description
Award-winning visual and performance artist Rachel Perry challenges every excuse you may have for not stepping towards your creative dreams. She attended art school at 36 while raising a first grader -- not the most practical time to begin an intense program of study -- and her work is now exhibited in collections around the world. You are not too old and it is not too late!
