Evolution, revolution and rants


Hey everyone, Daniel Gregory here. In this episode, we're diving into the topic of resistance and how it can seriously mess with our creative flow. I'll be sharing some personal insights on how resistance shows up in different ways and what we can do to push through it. We'll talk about how resistance can actually serve a purpose, but also how it can hold us back from embracing change and trying new things. I'll also touch on how to overcome resistance when it comes to our photography work and how to find joy in the process again. Plus, we'll explore the idea of having multiple priorities can be a good thing, and how stubbornness can be a major creativity killer.
