Overthinking used to keep me stuck in inaction—until I found a way to turn resistance into momentum. In this short episode, I’m sharing the super simple hack I use every day to play with resistance, stay consistent, and create without the drama.
After a long break, I decided to rip off the perfectionism Band-Aid and record one podcast episode every day for seven days...no scripts, no edits, just pure creative expression. In this episode, I reflect on what the 7 Day One Take MESSTERPIECE challenge taught me about resistance, consistency, and reclaiming my creative identity. If you’ve been waiting for the “right moment” to start, this episode is your sign. Start messy. Stay messy. That’s Big Artist Energy.
If you’ve ever felt the pressure to get it right, be perfect, or play by someone else’s rules—this episode is for you. On Day 6 of the One Take Masterpiece Challenge, I talk about how "good girl conditioning" keeps artists small, and why you need to stop trying to fit into someone else's box and start creating your own. We’ll talk about big artist energy, defying creative gravity, and how to dance with the shadows instead of running towards the light. It’s time to make a mess and call it a messterpiece.

Learn how to surrender control, express without a plan, and unleash your inner artist—one nonsensical messterpiece at a time.
Ever feel like the biggest cheerleader for everyone but yourself? In this episode, I explore what it means to stop being just the muse...and start being the artist.
