Episode Synopsis

In this episode, Amber sits down with Irish oil painter Julianne Guinee, whose deeply emotive figurative works explore the unseen emotional and cultural pressures shaping women’s lives. Based in Buttevant, County Cork, Julianne left her teaching career in 2019 to pursue painting full time, a decision that required courage, trust, and a willingness to finally call herself an artist.Together, Amber and Julianne dive into the inner world behind her paintings: the tension and tenderness of domestic spaces, the expectations placed on women, and the quiet contradictions that shape our lives. Julianne speaks openly about the fear of visibility, the discomfort of being truly seen, and how learning to believe in herself changed the trajectory of her career.She shares the practical and emotional realities of being a working artist in Ireland, from exhibitions and rejections to confidence-building milestones — and the transformative moment she was awarded the prestigious Accenture Women on Walls commission to paint eight pioneering women for permanent display at University College Cork.This conversation is a powerful exploration of creativity, identity, self-worth, and the messy, beautiful unfolding of purpose.🌿 Connect with Julianne:WebsiteInstagramRecorded as part of ALIGNED | The Path to Purpose with Amber DoyleThank you for listening to ALIGNED |The Path to Purpose.
