Writing, for all the beauty and goodness it brings into the world, can also be a force of destruction. It requires such a huge amount of emotional energy that we are prone to fill the subsequent void with things that make us feel good in the moment but leave us empty. When a creative person pursues their craft to the exclusion of everything else, the art destroys the artist. Why is this?

On this episode, you’ll be reminded why it’s vital for us to maintain balanced, healthy lives, so our art allows us—and others—to flourish.
