The Empowered Creatives

Letting Go of the Timeline


Listen Later

Ever feel like your well-crafted plans are just invitations for the universe to throw you a curveball? This week join me from the cozy confines of my closet-turned-studio in Asheville, North Carolina, as I share the raw and real side of adapting to life's unpredictability while chasing creative dreams. This episode promises an intimate look at the tug-of-war between intention and reality, and the profound lessons learned when timelines need to be tossed aside.


I open up about my personal journey over the past year; from the thrill of travel to the honest reality that not every goal I set last year came to fruition. On this episode, I'll offer 4 strategies for finding balance and the importance of reassessing goals amidst life's chaos. Whether you're a wandering nomad with a microphone or a dreamer with a plan, this episode is a heartfelt reminder that sometimes goals and dreams need a little longer to bloom.
