About this Episode

In this episode of Fishing Without Bait, host Jim Ellermeyer continues his deep and insightful conversation with Rubina Chadha — a mindfulness-based creative educator, breathwork guide, and trauma-informed life coach, and founder of Inner Design. Together, they explore the power of observation and mindful creativity as tools for healing and self-discovery.

Rubina shares how art and mindful looking can help individuals slow down, break from judgment, and reconnect with their inner creativity—even in the most mundane parts of life. The discussion touches on the barriers that block creative flow, including depression and anxiety, and how creative practices can be both the first casualty of stress and a path to recovery.

Rubina and Jim dive into what it means to live authentically and develop one’s own “singleness of purpose.” Listeners are invited to consider how lived experience, not just knowledge, shapes wisdom—and how mindful living can be an invitation, not a sales pitch, to transformation.
