Imposter Syndrome: One habit every artist must adopt to get rid of it |Susan diRende|

This week on the Arts to Hearts podcast, we have Susan diRende as our guest. Susan has led a very fascinating life to say the least. Apart from being a painter, she has also been a teacher, has made some films as a writer, and spent a few years in real estate as well as a theatre company. Her books include ‘Knife Witch’, a fantasy adventure, and Unpronounceable, a sci-fi/fantasy farce. Susan continues to remind us that age indeed is just a number, and you can pursue your dreams as long as your heart is in it. She did various jobs to support her passion for making art, and today, she is still very much consumed by her ventures. Her biggest fear is that she will regret not having done enough, and so now she is making sure that that doesn’t happen! Susan’s positive energy is evident in the podcast as well as the Instagram reels she posts on her account. She believes in living each day to the fullest and showing up every day. Through her travel experiences and the work she has done so far, Susan has a lot to share. One thing she has learned from her life as an artist is to be consistent. Even if it’s a small thing, you must stick to it and do it every day as it is the one thing that has helped Susan successfully keep in touch with her inner creative. Susan’s philosophy in life is to seek novel experiences, as they are the ones that keep us young. She still loves to travel and takes things as they come instead of worrying over what she will do after a couple of years. This attitude has opened vistas for her, as she always tries to do things she has never done before, and in turn, this practice keeps her creativity alive! Catch up on this week’s podcast to listen to a very candid and lively conversation between Susan and Charuka, where Susan details the many adventures she has been a part of in her life!
