"With refreshing enthusiasm, Rachael Renae offers up her first book Prioritize Play as an invitation for us to investigate the many-layered process of authentic creative expression. Renae leads us down an illuminated path of permission, guiding us into self-exploration with a unique, bright energy that is both silly and supportive, simple and expansive. She reminds us that no matter our age, daily life can be a fun experiment filled with color and curiosity. With her generous reflections and exercises, Renae affirms that we all inherently carry our own wacky sparkle of artistry that is meant to be shared."

"I started Prioritize Play thinking it was a book about creativity, but it's actually a book about life. Rachael's book is stuffed with nuggets of wisdom, practical exercises, and tangible examples that will help you transform your mind, your creative practice, your LIFE into the one you've dreamed of living. It's a book you will devour on the first read, and return to again and again."

"Rachael is the cool art teacher and supportive big sister of your dreams. Her authenticity, vulnerability, and creativity are infectious. This book will change your life over and over again!!!!"

"This is the EXACT book our overstimulated, dysregulated brains need! A book about PLAY that is fun, inspiring, digestible and contagious! Whether you read the book cover to cover, or just pick it up to get a shift in perspective and mood, Rachael's innovative exercises, real-life-application, and researched based prompts are GOLD! "--Alison Faulkner, Author of You're Already Awesome @thealisonshow

"This book is a permission slip to have fun again, both in and out of the studio. Rachael's enthusiasm for play is simply contagious. I dare anyone to read this and *not* feel encouraged to begin creating a more joyful, creative life!"
