    How to Design a Home That Supports Your Creative Work w/ Kim Costa

    A creative environment that works with you, not against you, might be the one thing standing between you and the writing you keep putting off. Kim Costa won an Oprah essay contest, then said no when cameras came to her home. That choice taught her how much your creative environment shapes what you can actually do there.  Her wheelhouse framework covers eight areas, from career and health to friends and finances, that reveal whether to stay, go, or renovate.  Kim Costa is a REALTOR®, author, speaker, podcast host, and creator of Lifestyle Foundations and the Wheel House Assessment. With more than 30 years of experience in residential construction, design, and real estate, she helps people determine whether their homes truly support the lives they want to live. She is the author of Live in Your Wheel House: An Empowering Guide to Stay, Go, or Reno.   For anyone who wants to learn more,here are her links:   Website: https://lifestylefoundations.comVirtual Workshop: https://lifestylefoundations.com/virtual-workshop Want to write your story?

    I Pulled My Books Off the Shelf. Here's Why.

    I can do hard things, and so can you, but first you have to name what's actually unfinished. That question stopped me cold while prepping to publish my 3rd book, and the answer led me to pull books 1 and 2 off the shelf completely. I've got over a decade of materials cluttering my space, and this season I'm clearing it out. Proving i can do hard things starts with honest creative inventory. Welcome to season 8 of Creative Life in Motion. Writing a book after 50 means your decades of experience are the outline. Lucky you!! there is so much to draw from!.

    Writing a book at 50 hits DIFFERENT

    Age is Power. Writing a book after 50 is a completely different beast, and if you're feeling stuck in the chaos of too much material, too much perfectionism, and a shifting identity, you're not alone. I cover why having too much to say keeps you frozen, how to stop editing before you even start, and why your lived experience is actually your structure.

    Your Writing Routine is the Problem (Do This Instead)

    Think you need a rigid 5 AM writing routine to finally finish your book? Think again. Most writing advice tells you that if you don't write every single day, you aren't a "real" author. But for midlifers, a rigid schedule is usually a one-way ticket to a shame spiral. In this video, I’m sharing why your writing routine might actually be the thing holding you back—and what you should use instead. I’m breaking down the difference between a fragile schedule and a forgiving rhythm, and I’m giving you my personal "Comeback Ritual" for returning to the work when life "gets in the way".
