Made Remarkable with Kellee Wynne

For years I believed some of the same stories I hear from artists every week.
I'm too old.
The market is saturated.
The economy is too uncertain.
Who am I to do this now?
In this solo episode, I'm sharing why I no longer believe any of those stories.
Inspired by conversations inside Build It Remarkable, I talk about what I'm witnessing as women in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and even 70s build businesses, grow communities, and create work that matters. I also share my own journey of starting later in life, the mindset shifts I've had to make, and why I believe creative dreams don't have an expiration date.
Along the way, I revisit the stories of women through history, like Julia Child and Grandma Moses, all of whom found remarkable success later than most people imagine.
If you've ever wondered whether you've missed your chance, whether there are already too many courses, or whether your dream is still worth pursuing, this episode is for you.
Because sometimes the biggest thing standing between us and the life we want isn't our age.
It's the story we've been telling ourselves.

When Tanya Ahmed first created her online course, it was called Gel Print Academy. It was a wonderful class, but over time she realized she wasn't simply teaching a technique. She was helping artists tell their stories through printmaking, color, texture, and personal expression. That realization changed everything.
In this conversation, Tanya shares how her signature course evolved into Story Printer, why slowing down helped her build a stronger business, and how becoming a mother reshaped her priorities without asking her to let go of her dreams.
We talk about building a creative business that grows with you instead of demanding that you sacrifice yourself for it. We explore why your niche is often found by becoming more yourself, how giving yourself permission to pause can actually create better momentum, and why meaningful teaching always begins with genuine connection.
If you've ever worried you're growing too slowly, changing direction too often, or wondering whether your story belongs in your work, this conversation is a beautiful reminder that your greatest strength isn't becoming someone else. It's bringing more of yourself into what you create.

Four years ago, Cat Rains was selling her artwork, calendars, and handmade products online, trying to piece together a living as a working artist.
Today, she has built one of the most successful collage education businesses in the online art world, serving thousands of students through her signature program, Collage Joy.
In this conversation, Cat shares the real story behind that growth.
We talk about what it looked like to transition from selling physical art to teaching online, why building an audience came before building a course, the power of focusing on one offer, and how a simple business model helped create extraordinary results.
We also dive into the realities of growth, perfectionism, delegation, launching, and what happens when your business becomes bigger than you ever imagined.
Whether you're an artist, maker, creative educator, or someone sitting on an idea you've been afraid to pursue, this episode is a powerful reminder that meaningful businesses are built one step at a time.
In this episode:
• Why selling art wasn't the business Cat ultimately wanted
• The moment she realized teaching could change everything
• How she grew an audience before launching her first course
• Why one offer can outperform a dozen smaller ones
• Building trust through newsletters, content, and community
• The realities of scaling a creative business
• Letting go of perfectionism and learning to delegate
• What success looks like after four years of steady growth
If you've ever wondered whether your creative skills could become something bigger, this conversation will leave you thinking differently about what's possible.

Artists are carrying a lot right now. Burnout. Pressure. Perfectionism. The feeling that you have to do business a certain way in order to succeed online.
In this episode of the Made Remarkable podcast, I sit down with artist, teacher, and Create to Breathe founder, Tish Reed, for a deeply honest conversation about creativity, motherhood, mental health, community, teaching art online, and building a business that actually fits your life.
Tish shares how she walked away from art for years after becoming a mother, the depression and creative disconnection that followed, and the powerful moment that brought her back to painting. What started as quietly writing painful thoughts onto a canvas became the foundation for the work she teaches today.
We also talk about:
 • Why creative play matters more than perfection
 • The difference between selling art and teaching art
 • How artists lose themselves trying to create for buyers
 • Building a slower, more sustainable teaching business
 • Why YouTube is becoming a powerful platform for artists
 • The pressure of Instagram and content burnout
 • ADHD, motherhood, nervous systems, and creative energy
 • Letting your business grow at the pace that works for your real life
 • Why Build It Remarkable is more mentorship than “course”
This conversation is for artists, teaching artists, and creative educators who want to build something meaningful without becoming another exhausted content machine online.
You can find Tish Reed at Create to Breathe, on YouTube at Tish Reed Art, and through her beautiful Play-ing Cards designed to help artists reconnect with creative play and presence.

Artists and creators don’t just make things. We carry things. We process, we hold, we try to make sense of a world that often feels too heavy.
In this episode, I’m sitting down with Colleen Attara, one of the most impactful teachers I’ve ever experienced, to talk about what really happens inside a creative space that feels safe, honest, and alive.
This is a conversation about:
 what it means to be a teaching artist beyond just technique 
 why making art in community hits differently than doing it alone 
 how creativity becomes a way to come back to yourself after burnout 
 the role of vulnerability in both art and teaching 
 and why gathering, creating, and expressing yourself is not frivolous… it’s necessary 
We also get into the behind-the-scenes of Colleen’s workshops, her philosophy on teaching, and how something as simple as being seen can completely shift the way you create.
If you’ve been feeling disconnected from your art…
 if you’ve questioned whether what you’re doing even matters…
 or if you know you’re meant to share your creativity with others but don’t know how…
this episode will inspire you to remember who you are when you’re allowed to create freely.
