Have you ever wondered if creating is even worth it when life feels heavy, uncertain, or overwhelming? In this episode, stationery designer and author, Janine Kwoh, is diving into the deeper “why” behind making art, especially during hard seasons. If you’ve found yourself asking questions like “What’s the point?” or “How can I keep creating when I’m emotionally drained?”—you’re not alone.

We’ll explore how creativity can be both a refuge and a response to grief, burnout, and big emotions. I’ll also share insights on redefining productivity, how small acts of creativity can still count, and why community matters more than ever when you’re navigating hard things.

Whether you’re in a creative rut, dealing with loss, or just feeling the weight of the world, this episode will remind you that your art matters, your rest matters, and it’s all part of the creative journey.
