I just ordered the book and it will be here tomorrow! I suppressed my artistic calling for 20+ years while I traveled some very dark paths. Now I feel this divine push back to rediscover and build upon my God given gifts, similar to the unconscious push for Elli to write this book. Thank you!
I just love how I slowly realized the relationship you all had with one another. I just thought you were complete strangers who were nice with each other.
😍wow I feel that way. I don’t want to work for no one anymore. Plunging soon full time.
I've just bought the book - I can't wait to read it!!! Thanks for sharing your story.
This was so interesting. It would be cool to have a session talking about Dimitra’s journey as a full time artist when she first started
Hey Nadine, we're so glad you enjoyed it! We definitely will do that in the future with Dimitra, thanks for the suggestion!
While I enjoyed this video, the title is a little misleading. I learned a little bit about Elli’s past and her book, but not really much about the path to success as an artist.
I can relate to what Dimitra said about reiterating what MG says to do it or the muse/feeling/idea goes to someone else and they will do it, as this has happened to me a few times.
Yeah it's super relatable!
Half way through the book and I’m so inspired. I can relate a lot and it empowers me to keep pushing on. Thank you for sharing your story Elli!
Thank you so much for sharing, we're so glad that you're enjoying it!
You guys have come a long way ! This set up looks so nice ! Hope you all have happy holidays, and a blessed new year to come !
Thank you so much Arianna, we hope you have a blessed New Year and Happy Holidays, too! We'll be coming out with new videos every Tuesday and Thursday!
Loved watching you all interact!! Very informative without telling too much. Jake you are a beautiful soul!❤
I really love this channel and the content you guys provide. It feels like the guide I never knew I needed. And I’m very grateful for that. I’m sorry if this comes across as entitled but I felt this particular video was misleading having a title like “The” path to success and taking about other equally interesting things that aren’t the topic
Balancing home work life especially when you have your own business is damn hard. You can have both it’s just scheduling time for everything. Much much coffee is how I do it..also letting them help me paint too, it’s a win win. Thank you for sharing.
So glad you enjoyed the video and YES it really is tough, but so worth it.
ENORMOUS HEARTFELT THANKS!!!!!!! THANK YOU ~ THANK YOU ~ THANK YOU!!!!!!!!💗
These are Interesting talks. It would appear that Elli Milan has an extraordinary ability to think back to experiences from recent times and also from very long ago, and in a sense 'be there'. And now to articulate a walk through with a lot of depth - right off the top. This is a rarity.
Perfect description of what happens when you've (effing) got to write. Lol! If you know, you know. ❤
Great pod cast . Please do an audio book Elli then I can access your book x
you are amazing
Thanks. It is a bit spooky when you list thought in the same order I have them. 😂😮. I am an example that these videos inspire. 👍👍✌️
another really good episode👏👏
So glad that you enjoyed it Tanya!!
I had no idea there were art factories like that outside of Asia much less in the US!!
🔥🔥🔥
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sounds like a really helpful course but as I already have established my technique this course is not suited as learning to paint is a required part of the course. .Its a shame they dont do courses for artists who, having already found their style and technique, need help to make a business with their work. hope I get some feedback on this please.
It sounds weird I had to use my sister's bathroom next door and there's an ambiguous image on the wall I've been building container house next door and there is a like image 😳
my main issue 8s that my illness is effecting my arm, eyes
❤❤❤❤❤💕💕💕💕💕🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I would love a video that explains how Jake came into the family and then became part of the M.A.I., from his perspective.
I know he is married to Dimitra and I have seen the video's aboht him taking the mastery program. But I just would love an insight video about how his road was into the family and then into becoming a co owner of the institute etc.
Because we hear bits and pieces and this gets me wondering about all this.
Or, if this video also exists, I would love somebody showing me which one that is.
ITS ALL GATEKEEPER
My man, please, make jokes and work the sense of humor, but when you laugh at your iwn material, i feel coerced to laugh but being an artist aka rebellious black sheep etc, will never be coerced. Youre sweet, be less so. You might be funny, let us decide. That woman is a bonafide genius btw. I do enjoy and keep watching. Thanks
