Artist, speaker, and creative visionary Dionne Woods joins Editor in Chief Susan Harold for an inspiring conversation on awakening your creativity and stepping into who you’re meant to become. As the founder of The Turquoise Iris and creator of the Motivatarian Method™, Dionne shares how a journey that began painting furniture in her Oklahoma garage grew into a global brand rooted in bold expression, connection, and purpose.
We explore breaking through self-doubt and imposter syndrome, what courageous expression looks like in everyday life, and how creativity shapes leadership. Dionne also reflects on the pivotal moments that guided her path, building a deeply connected creative community, and the meaning behind her 2026 word: Embody.
At its core, this conversation is about unlocking what’s holding you back, trusting your voice, and creating a life and business that feel aligned, expansive, and authentically your own.
