Episode Synopsis

Samantha Dion Baker has always seen the world a little differently. From her childhood days sketching in her grandmother’s sculpture studio and watching her mother make intricate designs on a drafting table to a decades-long career in graphic design, her creative path has been shaped by curiosity, beauty, and a deep desire to pay attention. In this episode of ReBloom, Sam shares her inspiring journey of rediscovery—how picking up a sketchbook in her forties led her back to herself and helped her reimagine a life as a full-time artist, illustrator, and author.Known for her evocative visual journaling and beloved books, Sam invites us into her process—one rooted not in perfection, but in presence. As she says, “Drawing isn’t about making something perfect—it’s about paying attention.”Tune in to hear how she made the courageous shift from designer to artist, why she believes creativity is for everyone, and how drawing the everyday can lead to extraordinary transformation.This conversation is a beautiful reminder that it’s never too late to start again—and that sometimes, the most meaningful reblooms begin with a pencil and a page.Links:Substack:  https://samanthadionbaker.substack.com/Website: https://www.sdionbaker.com/IG: https://www.instagram.com/sdionbakerdesign/Books: https://www.sdionbaker.com/booksPre-Order Signed Copy:  https://www.booksaremagic.net/preorders/samantha-dion-bakerShop: https://www.sdionbaker.com/shop-2020Thank You to Our Sponsors: Jet Creative and UrbanStems!
