Thanks for listening. With infinite love and gratitude, Beth What does it mean, right now, to march to the beat of a different drummer? This week, a hand-lettered poster, a decades-old comedy joke, and a drum set in the background of a photograph lead Beth to rethink one of our oldest creative assumptions. What if "different" isn't about standing apart from people you don't admire—but about staying true to yourself, even when your own heart changes? A reflection on creativity, courage, kindness, rhythm, and learning to listen for the beat beneath the beat.

So today we’re talking about goals.

Or more specifically, why I’ve changed my mind about them.

In this episode I explore why goals aren’t targets but trellises, how they help us grow, and why the transformation we experience along the way may be the real goal after all.

With infinite love and gratitude, Beth

Manifestation: The Part We Don’t Talk About

What if manifestation isn’t about hacks, frequencies, or perfect morning routines?

What if it starts with understanding what you actually believe?

This episode is about stories. How the idea that we are not our stories rubs me the wrong way — and what does rub me the right way about loving our stories.

So there’s a moment before beginning a project…

In this episode, Beth Lapides explores what she calls “the long hello” — that strange threshold between wanting to begin and actually beginning. The circling. The almost deciding. The emotional weather around choosing what to make.

An unattended leaf blower, running loud and moving nothing, becomes a lens on modern life: all that noise, zero signal.

This episode explores the difference between noise and signal, why fighting chaos with more chaos doesn’t work, and a quieter way to create real change.

In a world of leaf blowers, be a rake.

There are times when something is already in motion.

You can feel it before you understand it.You don’t have to force it.You can meet it.

In this episode, Beth explores the idea of recognizing when a moment is already unfolding—and how to align with it instead of trying to control it. Drawing from the current astrological conversation around “all the planets in Aries,” she reflects on beginnings, energy, and what it means to move with what’s happening.

This isn’t about belief.It’s about perception.About learning to name the moment, and step into it.

This is one of the core ideas behind Pick Your Next Project.

Working to clarify—but not waiting until everything is completely clear.

Working to be ready—but not waiting until you’re certain you are.

Working to move forward—but always starting… where you are.

Today reminded me—that where you are isn’t the obstacle.It’s the starting point for solutions.
