Glitter and Gravedirt Juniper & Aidan Black

A Return to Creative Projects and thoughts on being Enough. And the final episode in our first season!

Juniper and Aidan are back on the air and have missed this space so much.  

Thank you for your patience as we figured out some life and ourselves along the way.  Join us as we discuss what it means to return to our creative practices and what we feel "Enoughness" is. Shame and guilt around returning to creative projects and how we have found ways to move through those blocks. Thoughts on "Perfectionism" and how it relates to life, Neurodivergence, and everything.
