overconsumption in creativity, scarcity mindset + learning to value what you have over what you want
WE DID IT! This is officially the last episode of Season 1 of Lessons in Creativity! **For those watching, I apologize for my camera being out of focus half way through the video, ahh! -- Alas...we move.** I filmed this video towards the end of 2024, when I was thinking a lot about how and where I was spending my money when it came to my creativity and how overconsumption was holding me back. Today’s episode is about the effect of overconsumption on our creativity. It’s important to be mindful of the ways we invest in our creativity and how we are often told that we need more than we actually do to create. Being intentional is a huge part of valuing our creativity in ways that are sustainable and attainable. In this episode we’ll talk about… The Urge to Impulse Buy - You don’t need everything that you see online in order to create you just think that you do. What are some of the ways that you can creatively challenge yourself to use what you have differently? Attaching Your Value To Material Things - What is quality content? How do we go about defining value in our content? Getting Unstuck from Scarcity Mindset - Are you able to determine a want vs a need? How can this be a true investment for you instead of losing value as soon as you press “buy”?

This is the reality of bouncing back after losing creative momentum.
This reality of “falling off” while finding your way. I felt very discouraged after missing one episode, and then another… and then I fully had to accept that this is a part of my journey and I’m learning what sustainable consistency looks like for me. This episode I just want to give you the words of encouragement I’ve given myself during this time and talk through a few of the thoughts that have kept me from creating. We’ll talk about… Bouncing Back After Losing Creative Momentum - Understanding the root of your own momentum and encouragement to continue after taking a break. The Courage To Create What You Haven’t Seen - Pushing through feelings of uncertainty and creating through uncertainty Remaining Curious in Your Creativity - What it looks like to try new things creativity and finding yourself through your “why”.

Consistency as we have learned it, is not sustainable.
Consistency caught up to me..I had to take a short break from the podcast but I’m back with a special episode that I believe is right on time. I think one of the biggest hurdles that creatives have to jump over along the creative journey is consistency. It’s something that has been simplified and broken down to a science but I still think all social media gurus forget the “human” aspect of the process as well. Consistency as we have learned it, is not sustainable. However we can make it work for us. In this episode we will talk about: Redefining Consistency: Finding a flow and pace that works for you and your individual lifestyle & redefining what consistency looks like in your life. Momentum vs Consistency: The importance of momentum in getting started & how momentum sets us up to be consistent. Staying the Course: Momentum is a season, the importance of rest, & unlearning toxic productivity and hustle culture whilst navigating consistency in your creativity. Thank you for being here!

the keys to a balanced life as a full time content creator with a 9-5
My creative journey has not been linear. It’s been full of ups and downs and plenty of lessons learned. We don't talk enough about the anxiety that comes with leaping into your passions. There are so many things I had to learn and unlearn along the way. I’ve come to realize that “creating the life” that I want to live doesn’t always have to be a leap. A small movement towards your passions can be just as powerful as jumping in head first. In this episode, we will discuss the mindset shift to developing a creative lifestyle and balancing content creation + a corporate job. I hope that me sharing my freelance journey helps you to feel less alone in yours. I can’t wait to see what you create.

feeling stuck in life + creating through grief
Today’s episode is about feeling stuck in life and grieving different parts of yourself while trying to create. This was a very vulnerable episode to film. Over the past few weeks I’ve been truly understanding how my grief has manifested into a serious creative rut. It’s forced me to acknowledge the parts of myself that aren’t exactly caught up to my current timeline. To realize that I’m still operating on thoughts and feelings of the past because I hadn’t addressed them…is such an eye opening experience. However, I’m learning how to release and exist beyond the grief I’m processing.
