Do you ever find yourself wondering any of these:

+ Why can't I create (or be as confident) as everyone I see online?

+ Why can't I just stay off social media?

+ Why am I so tired?

+ Why do I have so many doubts?

Guess what? YOU ARE NOT ALONE. And also: there is nothing wrong with you. Promise.

This week, I'm breaking down some of the most common questions I hear from people about their creative habits and where they think they need to change and am diving into why these questions consistently come up as well as some new ways you can approach them when they do.

There are no formulas for success. There are no absolute right answers. And I promise you this: someone else is asking themselves those very things you're asking yourself right now.

You're doing great. Keep going.

Show Notes:

What do moving to San Francisco (without my boyfriend at the time), coming off of maternity leave, and quitting drinking have in common? They were all major turning points in my life.

In this week's episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes of these three huge transitions in my life and sharing everything I've learned in the process of making my way through them, including how I now face those "things have to change!" whispers now.

If you're in the midst of a transition, this episode is for you. If you're about to be in the midst of a transition, this episode is for you. And if you too have survived challenging transitions in your life, I've got you covered as well. Big BIG love.

Show Notes:

Think you need to find the One Perfect Idea to act on? Or are you drowning in inspiration and have more ideas than you know what to do with? Either way, I've got you covered.

This week, I'm taking you behind the scenes of one of my own recent "I can't do this hard, scary thing!" freak-outs and sharing why ideas don't matter as much as we think they do.

Enjoy and then: GET TO WORK!!

Show Notes:

I am thrilled to be kicking Season 5 (!!) off with a return appearance from my friend Camille T. Dungy.

In this episode, Camille and I dive real-talk look at what happens behind the scenes of the life of a successful poet, author, speaker, and teacher and how she maintains success and keeps her creative train on the tracks.

We also talk about self-care, how to find/ask for/get help, the difference between doing and promoting the work, and how to navigate the tension between wanting success yesterday and finding the patience to let your ideas simmer.

I loved this conversation and suspect you will too..
