    🌀Spiraling? Here's What Actually Helps

    Have you ever had one bad day that suddenly made you question everything? Yesterday, that was me. After my most successful month as an entrepreneur, I found myself crying hysterically, convinced I wasn't doing enough and wondering if I was failing.  Looking back, I realized my brain had turned one incredibly stressful day into a story that wasn't fully true. In this solo episode, I'm sharing what happened, the surprising lesson it taught me, and the framework I'm using to move through creative spirals without letting them define me. In this episode, you'll learn: - How to recognize when you're spiraling instead of seeing the full picture -Why your inner critic says the things it does and how to respond with compassion instead of shame -How to separate what's actually happening from the story your brain is telling you -A simple practice that's helping me regain perspective and move forward one step at a time If you've been feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, or like you're somehow falling behind, I hope this episode reminds you that one hard day doesn't get to write the story of your life. 🎙️ Connect & Work with Me:If you love this episode and want personalized support to break through creative blocks, build confidence, and finally share your work with the world, I’d love to help.

    Say You’re the Thing Before You Become It + Codependency vs. Creativity | Erika Wright

    Have you ever noticed that the moment you step into a new, big, chapter of your life, your old patterns can suddenly come rushing to the surface? I have…  In this episode, I share a major realization I’ve had during week three of full-time entrepreneurship: sometimes you have to start saying you’re the thing before you fully become it. I share how I came to this, how it helped me manifest one of my biggest dreams and how you can use it in your creativity and career.  Now back to what I started with…every time you level up, you need to level up your growth and self-development… and for me, one of those edges is continuing to heal codependency, people pleasing, and learning not to abandon myself while building a life and business that’s truly mine. So today, I’m replaying one of my favorite conversations from the archives with codependency facilitator and spiritual counselor Erika Wright. This conversation completely changed the way I think about self-worth, relationships, creativity, emotional resilience, and what it actually means to stay connected to yourself. From this conversation, you’ll learn: -How to identify and heal codependent patterns -The difference between creativity and codependency -How to stop abandoning yourself for other people -Why emotional discomfort is not an emergency -How to stop giving unsolicited advice and start turning inward -And how to stay connected to yourself while still loving others This episode is especially for you if you’re in a season of reinvention, entrepreneurship, healing, motherhood, transition, or personal growth.

    How to Stop Over-Functioning & Start Creating with Lindsey Lerner

    Have you ever wondered if all that doing is actually getting in the way of your creativity? What if I asked you to let yourself be less useful? This week I'm sitting down with photographer, documentarian, and creative force Lindsey Lerner, founder of Field Notes From the Work in the Wild, a stunning project on Substack that documents people in the messy middle of their most meaningful work. Lindsey started out as my creative coaching client and has since become one of my dearest friends and creative allies. And in this conversation, she gets radically honest about what happened when she finally stopped over-functioning, stopped building everyone else's dreams, and started making room for her own. We get into: -Why being less useful might be the most creative thing you can do -How to keep the faith when your path makes absolutely no sense -What it really means to ask for help, and why it's so hard for high achievers -How to braid your passions into something only you can create -Plus the moment Lindsey's wife said something so simple it rewired everything. If you've ever confused hustle for worth, or wondered if there's a more holistic, authentic way to create, this one is for you, cutie. And if you're in New York, Lindsey's bringing Field Notes to life on September 26th at Bronxlandia in the South Bronx.
