About this listen

Do you see yourself as an artist?

Colin Egglesfield never thought an artistic career path was realistic. He always made room for creativity, but it was never his life’s focus.

A chance encounter with an acting class, before committing to medical school, made Colin realize that an artistic career was possible. The path wasn’t easy. Breaking into Hollywood can be quite a challenge. On top of that, he was diagnosed with cancer, not once but twice.

In Agile Artist, Colin shares lessons he learned from his struggles to make a career in Hollywood, finding courage and support through personal health battles and tragedies. Along the way he shares the riveting story of his ground-zero experience on 9/11 as well as his social impact projects in Chicago. This is the story of Colin’s journey into creative discovery and his attempts to connect with a more authentic version of himself to become an Agile Artist.

Colin emphasizes his belief that we are all artists in some form or another, even if we haven’t connected with that part of ourselves. In Agile Artist, he shares his rich life stores and provides plenty of inventive strategies to help you break through to your creative, true self. Beyond this powerful book Colin invites you to join his artist community, where together, we can all support, motivate, and share who we are to create not only better lives but a better world.

One of the most inspirational book I have read so far!

Agile Artist is one of the best inspirational book I have read so far. Unlike many other inspirational books that full of big ideas,Agile artist did truly explains his story you can easily relate to,just like listening to an old friend sitting next to you. You can draw on so many lessons from his life journey,such as how to face up to adversity circumstances and how to be appreciative and make the most of life.

A must listen

From witnessing 911 to cancer, Colin has a perspective on life that you don’t often hear. He has emerged from
his past as someone who genuinely walks the talk, giving back to his community, giving talks actively changing peoples lives.

The themes in this book you might have heard before, but the book delivers these themes wrapped in his diverse experience and genuine care for people and the world, which shines through in all his words.

An inspirational and enjoyable read

I really enjoyed listening to Colin’s book, Agile Artist, and gained a great deal of inspiration and motivation. Colin’s sincere, open and often confronting stories and reflections will impact me over the years to come, in particular his tremendous courage in the face of health issues. His initiatives and philanthropic work are making a true difference, and have me wanting to contribute more for the good of others, particular the communities in need. Colin’s love and gratitude towards his family, and to those who have supported and challenged him over the years, is a reflection of his infectious positivity and the power of thanks. Thank you Colin, the agile artist !
