A Mighty Practice

Are you running on empty? Not feeling so inspired? In this episode, I'll talk about the difference between inspiration (which I call "fuel") and obligation and how the two exist within your life. I'll talk about the importance of identifying authentic fuel and where we can find it.

In this episode, I'll talk about how to make time for your creative work and what might be blocking you from building a creative habit.

In this episode I'll talk about the importance of having a creative process that works for you.  I'll share the 5-stages of my creative process, and the intentions I set at each stage so I don't get overwhelmed when starting a new project. I'll also explain why we can get stuck at certain places in our process, and some ways to work through it.

In this episode, I'll talk about the expectations we place on our creative work and how that can hold us back from developing our voices and identifying our values. I'll talk about the importance of making your art in service to your life and how you can follow your "creative thrills."

In this episode, I'll talk about our creative self-worth as artists - our belief that we deserve to make things and that those things bring value to the world. I'll talk about where it comes from, why it's important, and how you can cultivate it.

In this episode, I'll talk about all the fears that come up when you want to start a creative project (it won't be any good! It's all been done before!)  and how to overcome them. I'll talk about my own fears around starting a podcast and the baby-steps I took to help me get out of my own way.
