“It’s not necessarily the action that you’re taking. It's the attitude in which you are taking the action that is the play part.” - Sharon Calderon

In this episode of Creatively Free we dive into the reasons why play is THE antidote to the modern culture of seriousness, consumption and stagnation. Dive in deep because it just might spark your inner child’s JOY factor!


Sharon Calderon is no stranger to living a life she loves on purpose! She's a certified life coach, play educator, passionate activist, and proud momma of two pretty cool kiddos.

As a native San Antonian, she carries the warm spirit of her community into her mission, embodying the mantra that “Play brings us together”. Through her own life experiences with adversity, she has discovered how the power of reclaiming play and recognizing the importance of emotional nourishment are keys to helping overcome life’s most challenging situations.

What sets Sharon apart is her innovative, compassionate, and evidence-based approach, skillfully merging the realms of play and trauma to help others live vibrant, resilient lives. She truly believes that by embracing play in every area of our lives, we will individually and collectively, positively revolutionize the way we learn, love, and live.
