Soften the Edges

Beyond Your Limit? Permission to Rethink w/ Alain McAlister


Listen Later

Join Mary and Alain McAlister, a luminous artist who went from pushing through everything to actually listening to their body (and kept creating anyway!).

We get into what it really means to assess your bandwidth, how to scrap projects without shame, and why befriending your self-doubt might be better than fighting it. Alain shares what changed after an autism diagnosis in college, how they structure their days around energy instead of shoulds, and why sometimes the most creative thing you can do is stop.

If you've been ignoring your limits (or maybe pretend you don't even have them!), this conversation will feel like a gentle permission slip to assess your own bandwidth and move forward more gently.
