EP 10: Exploring the seasons with Rosie Steer

Posted on October 21, 2024 by Sarah Robertson

Today, I’m thrilled to welcome Rosie Steer, the creative force behind Everything Looks Rosie and Sow, Grow, Harvest, Rest. Together, we explore the journey behind her debut book, Slow Seasons, as she shares her approach to honouring nature’s cycles.

In this episode, we delve into:

  • The book’s structure, inspired by the Celtic Wheel of the Year and its seasonal celebrations
  • Rosie’s role in shaping the book’s visuals, collaborating closely with her publisher to bring her vision to life
  • Building and nurturing an online and offline community, including seasonal events, signings, and workshops
  • How storytelling fosters belonging and connection, grounding us in shared experience
  • Finding flow in work and life through the grounding season, and how the seasons can nourish our creative process

We also touch on all four Brand Seasons – Sowing, Blossoming, Harvesting, and Grounding – and how each season can deepen our approach to creativity and connection.

Throughout the episode, Rosie highlights some of the inspiring individuals and businesses involved in her journey, including:

In what ways do the seasons influence your own creative journey? Have you adapted your process to align with nature’s rhythms? And how do you cultivate a sense of community around your creative projects?

In Gaelic, Saorsa means ‘freedom’—serving as a beacon for those eager to amplify their impact in the world, in a grounded and gentle way.

Freedom lies in being bold, and if you’re looking for deeper meaning, you can carve your own path with a combination of coaching and psychology, where you’ll be guided through the wood, the trees and the spaces in between.
