When was the last time you flipped through a book and read from a random page only to discover the words were exactly what you needed? What does being mindful mean to you?

Who do you get inspiration from when creating your work? Can you discover something different about a song you've listened to hundreds of times? We hope this episode inspires you to create.

Are you going through life as the tortoise or the hare? Sometimes we're so focused on achieving our dreams that we forget to take time to enjoy the journey along the way. To remember that there is no finish line. Fiercely pursuing our dreams of tomorrow doesn't mean we can't be genuinely grateful for exactly where we are today.

In this episode, Kate and Shawn explore a fun exercise to help you break through your fears and go after your dreams. So what? It's a phrase we can use to help us discover that the worst-case scenario isn't really that bad. This activity takes us through a process to remove anxiety and give us the confidence to start doing the work we know we're meant to do. We would love to know if you give it a try.

In this episode, Shawn and Kate talk about recognizing our creative habits. Shawn recently read James Clear's book Atomic Habits. In it, James shares a great analogy to help us understand more about the impact our habits have when we're willing to trust the process and continue doing the work. Pushing through your creative practice when you aren't seeing results can be difficult, but when we believe in our work and know we may be just one step away from impact, it's easier to keep going. We would love to know your thoughts.

In this episode, Kate and Shawn talk about process, practice, and the power of your dreams. It may seem random at first, but it all comes together. There's nothing we can do about the past, let it go. Decide what's next. Believe in your dreams. Fall in love with the process. Shawn hates this term. He prefers the word practice. Either way, it's what makes you stronger to create the thing only you can create.
