Creativity is your Superpower

What happens when you stop waiting for life to change and decide to take the driver's seat?

On November 2, I started a 62-day experiment. I decided that I was going to quantum leap my life.

After years of personal growth, spiritual work, learning, and having those little aha moments, I started questioning something: why was I still waiting for my external reality to catch up with all the changes I'd made inside?

So I decided to do something differently.

In this episode, I talk about why I chose 62 days, what came up when I started journaling, a very vivid dream, and some unexpected realizations during a trip to London. I also share how I'm beginning to notice changes in the way I think, make decisions, and take responsibility for other people's feelings.

I'm only seven days into this experiment, so I don't have a big conclusion or a success story to share just yet. I'm documenting it as it happens, and I'm curious to see where I'll be at the end of these 62 days.

Let's see what happens.

Have you ever felt that you're not creative enough, that your ideas aren't good enough, or that something is stopping you from creating?

What if creative blocks aren't really about losing your creativity?

In this episode of Creativity Is Your Superpower, I explore the connection between creative flow, our thoughts and the beliefs that can hold us back.

I'll share my own experience as an illustrator, how fear of making mistakes and not feeling good enough affected my creative process, and why I believe our creative power never really disappears.

We'll also explore why creativity isn't just for artists, how to recognise the thoughts behind your blocks, and how small shifts in the way you see yourself can open the door to a different creative experience.

Because perhaps your creativity isn't blocked. Perhaps it's simply waiting for you to let it flow.

Have you ever felt like your dreams are so close you can almost feel them, yet somehow your life doesn't seem to be moving forward?

In this episode of Creativity Is Your Superpower, I'm sharing something I'm experiencing right now. That feeling of being trapped, watching the world move fast while you feel stuck in slow motion.

We explore why we put so much pressure on ourselves to see results, how our thoughts can make us feel confined, and how creativity can help us rediscover possibilities when we can't see the next step.

Because sometimes, we don't need to push harder. We need to pause, listen to ourselves and remember that this moment is just part of the journey.

How often do you look outside yourself for an answer you already have inside you?

In this episode, I’m talking about our inner power and how easily we give it away when we constantly look to other people, Google, AI, or anyone else for the answers.

We’ve been conditioned from an early age to believe that when we have a question, the answer must come from somewhere outside of us. But what happens when we start trusting our own inner guidance instead?

I share what I’ve been noticing in my own life, why I’ve been doubting answers I already knew, and how those little intuitive nudges can help us rebuild trust in ourselves.

From ordering peppermint tea instead of my usual latte to following those seemingly random impulses to go somewhere or do something, I talk about how we can start practising listening to ourselves in the smallest ways.

Because you are the source. You are the main character of your life. And nobody knows you better than you.

At the end of the episode, I also guide you through a simple practice to quiet the noise and listen to what comes from within.

What if fear is influencing your decisions without you even realising it?

In this episode, I’m talking about the quieter kinds of fear — the ones that show up as a tight stomach, tense shoulders, overthinking, saying yes when you really want to say no, avoiding difficult conversations, or constantly worrying that you’ve made the wrong decision.

I share some very personal examples of how fear used to show up in my own life, from being terrified of being late to work, to avoiding conflict, to saying yes to work that I really should have said no to.

And the interesting thing is that sometimes we don’t recognise these reactions as fear at all.

We just think, “That’s how I am.”

But what happens when you start paying attention?

In this episode, I talk about recognising fear in your body, understanding where your reactions might come from, and gently teaching yourself that you are safe.

Because the goal isn't to get rid of fear completely.

It's to stop fear from being louder than your own voice.

If you've been feeling stuck, holding yourself back, struggling to say no, or wondering why certain situations trigger such a strong reaction in you, this episode might give you something to think about.

We are more connected than ever — but are we actually connected to ourselves?

In this episode of Creativity Is Your Superpower, I’m talking about social media, technology, AI, comparison, information overload and the constant noise of the online world.

The more voices we have around us, the harder it can become to hear our own.

I share some of the things I’ve been noticing in my own life — from scrolling and comparison to checking my screen time and realizing just how much of my attention is being pulled elsewhere.

Because when you constantly consume other people’s opinions, ideas and lives, how easy is it to hear your own intuition?

This isn’t about saying technology is bad. I love technology. I use AI, social media and my phone every day. It’s about becoming more conscious of how we use it — and asking ourselves a simple question:

Are you using technology, or is technology using you?

If you’re feeling called to reconnect with your creativity, your intuition and the life you genuinely want to create, I also have a masterclass where I explore how we can use creativity to create the life we deserve, dream about and truly want.

And if this episode makes you think, I’d love to hear from you — how does social media affect your connection with yourself?

Change can feel uncomfortable because we don’t know what’s waiting for us on the other side. We know what we have, even when we’re ready for something different.

But what if uncertainty isn’t something we need to fear? What if we could learn to see change with curiosity, possibility and even excitement?

In this episode, I’m exploring why we resist change, why we’re drawn back to what feels familiar, and what might happen when we start looking at the unknown differently.

Welcome back to Creativity Is Your Superpower — Season 3 is here! ❤️

After a summer break, I'm back with a little catch-up and a realization that surprised me: how much fear can hide in the things we think are simply “who we are.”

From feeling guilty about resting and constantly needing to be productive, to perfectionism, making mistakes and the fear of falling behind — I'm sharing what I've been noticing in myself and why I'm learning to let fear exist without letting it make my decisions.

Maybe some of the things you call “personality” are actually patterns you've learned along the way too?

Thank you for being here. Welcome to Season 3! ❤️

In this episode, I explore what perfectionism has really looked like in my own life, and why it isn't about creating perfect work. It's about searching for proof that it's safe to share ourselves with the world.

I talk about the hidden loop of checking, comparing, and looking for permission before we let our ideas, our creativity, and our work exist in the world.

If you've ever found yourself endlessly tweaking, researching, comparing, or waiting until you feel "ready," this episode is for you.

Because maybe you're not looking for information.

Maybe you're looking for permission.

I woke up at 3am with my brain racing so fast I almost thought a panic attack was coming back. In this episode, I trace exactly how it happened — a week of scrolling for fun during the World Cup — and what it taught me about the difference between entertainment and overload.

We talk about:

• Why social media can speed up your mind even when you're not comparing yourself to anyone
• The "corridor of doors" tool for when you feel mentally stuck
• How to talk yourself down at 3am using breath and self-cuddling
• Why the real question isn't what's in your mind, but whether you even know it's there

If you've ever laid awake with your thoughts on fast-forward, this one's for you.
