Most creative teams want to build inclusive environments, but without a clear process, things can fall apart quickly.

So, how do we move from intention to action?

In this episode, I’m walking you through the STAGES Framework—the six-step method I created through Art & Soul Consulting to help arts organizations build brave, resilient, and psychologically safe spaces. When artists feel supported, their work isn’t just safer—it’s better.

From setting the scene with clarity to striking with care, I’ll show you exactly how this framework transforms the creative process, step by step. I’ll also share how we used it in a real production of The Full Monty to navigate vulnerability, body shame, and bold storytelling with intention.

If you’re ready to create rehearsal rooms that support risk-taking, reduce burnout, and actually feel good to be in, this episode is for you.
