Why creatives stay stuck, even when the door’s wide open.
We all want freedom. Creative freedom, emotional freedom, professional freedom. But here’s the thing nobody tells you:
You can be free… and still live like you’re caged.
In this episode, I break down the three invisible cages every creative person ends up pacing:
It starts with a pacing lioness in San Diego, makes a detour through childhood Masonic mystery, and ends in a gallery in LA with a man named Jesse and a story I still can’t shake.
If you’ve ever felt trapped by your own success, your style, your niche, or your silence… this one’s for you.
Light Leak Assignment:
Choose your cage.
Take one honest step outside it.
Before the week ends.
No excuses.
