What drives you to be creative?
In the case of my guest and friend, Tracey Fischer, some of its FOMO. Basically it kills her to feel like she’s missing out on any creative adventure; she just wants to be EVERYWHERE experiencing ALL THE THINGS. In this episode of Threads and Bone: exploring creativity, I sit down with this creative force, and intuitive explorer for a deep, meandering, and soul enriching conversation about creativity not only as a way of life but the only way to exist.
From modern dance and Butoh, to sculpting, hairdressing, architectural design, world travel, and aquatic bodywork, Tracey’s path defies linear definition. Together, we reminisce and explore what it means to create without editing, to trust intuition before technique, and to let creativity serve as a direct path back to spirit.
This episode is an invitation to rethink creativity, not as a product, but as a practice of listening, surrendering, and allowing something greater to move through you. Expect stories of sculpting faces that seem to arrive from elsewhere, dancing as meditation, water as healer, and the courage to keep reinventing yourself at any age.
📝Show Notes & Key Takeaways
💨 Creativity Begins With Surrender: When engaged in any creative pursuit Tracey learned that the first attempt must be completely freeform. Begin with no judgment, no perfection, no brain because trying to refine too early will block the creative flow.
🧭 Movement As A Path To Spirit: Dance and movement have been Tracey’s lifelong portal to spirit, healing, and self-understanding. Even as her mediums shift, movement remains central to how she processes and creates. Creativity then becomes a cyclical relationship between movement, stillness, and inspiration.
🌍 Curiosity Is A Compass, aka FOMO: Travel, sculpting, artist residencies, diving, sailing, tango, and design, the girl is curious about (and good at) it all! Tracey follows fascination wherever it leads because for her, creativity thrives on trusting her intuition, saying “yes” before certainty arrives.
👁️ Art Can Arrive Through You, Not From You: Some sculptures felt less “made” and more received. Tracey describes continuing until “someone is staring back,” blurring the line between artist, channel, and witness. She speaks of embodied knowledge and trusts that the body knows shape, form, and truth without conscious thought.
🌊 Water As Collaborator And Healer: Tracey’s current love and work centres on aquatic bodywork, blending dance, stillness, and somatic healing. She emphasises that the water is the primary healer and she is a guide. She feels honoured creating a safe container where the body can unwind, remember, and resolve on its own terms.
🌀 Reinvention Doesn’t Expire: Tracey’s continuing story challenges the idea that bold change belongs only to the young.
