Founder of the SPARK method and recipient of Best of Boston award, Diana Stelin is on a mission to reduce burnout through creativity. Ms. Stelin published a highly acclaimed novel about the importance of art for our psyche, and in recent years has presented a TedX talk on using creativity to fight burnout, appeared as a guest on multiple podcasts, wrote a children’s book, founded a clothing line based on her art, and exhibited her work at the 2022 Venice Biennale. She lives in the Boston area but her pieces are in corporate and private collections worldwide, and she uses her expertise in her proprietary flow processes as a consultant in creative corporate workshops and talks. Through getting people of all ages out of their comfort zones, she helps them awaken to the beauty and fragility of our world, while finding their inner child in the process. -- Ms. Stelin writes deeply about the connections between artmaking and our psyche. In her debut novel, 'Searching for a Place to Call Home', she explores immigration and its effects on one's family ties and a certain course in life. In her second book, 'Hannah in Venice', Stelin explores the complex atmosphere of Venetian culture and once again demonstrates the power of creative talent as a means to step out of one's limited worldview. Complete with Stelin's artwork inspired by Venice, this is a stunning children's story that acts a catalyst for future generations to explore their innate creativity. A co-author in 'Radical-Self Love', the 2nd book in the International best selling series of Creative Lifebooks, Stelin outlines her perspective and walks readers through an exercise she explores in her TedX talk. Her belief - getting people out of their comfort zones and into the exploration of the child within heals and propels true growth. In 'Forgotten', which is still under way, Ms. Stelin explores the conflict between motherhood and a career of an artist. Through parallel analysis of dreamwork she battles her demons instilled by a generational and cultural divide on notions about child-rearing and a woman’s role in society. Her aim is to prove that being a mother does not negate the required narcissism of a creative and that the two callings in life can and should peacefully co-exist and balance each other out.
