"I don't have enough time!"

When was the last time you wailed this phrase? Last week? Yesterday? An hour ago?

I've got some tough love for you in this episode.

Time is not your problem, so time management is not the solution to your creating woes. If you're going to unleash your creating power then you're going to have to go beyond time management.

And I'm going to show you the three specific reframes you need in order to do this.

You probably think your dusty old resume has no use other than to save you from your current work nightmare. Not so! Your resume may hold the key to helping you get clarity on your unique contribution--the thing that makes you incomparable and will help you to get paid to be yourself.

In this episode, I take my guest Niko Turrentine through one of my signature processes--a Resume Excavation--that is designed to help my clients not only clarify their unique contribution but to gain a better understanding of what may support or detract from it in the long run.

Grab your resume or list of projects and tune in to come along for the journey!

In this episode, you'll see that one of the great benefits of creating is the many ways you can serve the world around you.

My guest does this by putting smiles on people's faces with her delicious food.

Margaret Kamara is the Founder of District Chop Bar, a West Africa fusion concept based in Washington DC. District Chop Bar offers catering services, meal preps, and wholesale products. I've known Margaret for years! She's someone whose ability to take consistent action in creating with her gifts so they become a reality serves as an absolute inspiration to me. And she's here today to talk to us.

She's the person who comes to mind when I ask myself "who do I know out here who is the portrait of a creating maven". That would be Margaret.

• We talk about the impact that tapping into her gifts to create has had on her community
• We talk about what she's looking to create next
• And We also talk about how creating can still be a powerful tool and experience for someone who doesn't intend to extend themselves beyond their 9-5

Are you feeling stuck and dissatisfied with your work again? Have you been toying around with the idea of finally finding your dream job? I hate to break it to you, but the dream job is dead.

In this inaugural episode of Reframe to Create I show why despite this sobering fact all is not lost.
