    Why I Make Things

    Why do we make things — even when we’re tired, busy, or not sure they’ll go anywhere? In this first episode of Overworked, Under Creative, I talk through the quieter reasons behind making things — not for productivity, success, or validation, but because sometimes creating is how we process, survive, and make sense of ourselves. This isn’t about goals or outcomes. It’s about the pull to make something, even when you don’t fully understand why. If you’ve ever felt the urge to create without a clear reason — this episode is for you. Why do we make things — even when we’re tired, busy, or not sure they’ll go anywhere?

    When The Creative Brain Won't Shut Up

    Some brains don’t power down. Ideas stack on top of each other. Thoughts loop. Connections keep forming long after you’re supposed to be “off.” And while that’s often framed as a problem to fix, it’s also the engine behind creativity. In this episode of Overworked, Under Creative, I talk about what it’s like to live with a brain that won’t shut up — the constant thinking, the overprocessing, and the pressure to quiet it down. Not to solve it, but to understand it. This isn’t an episode about calming your mind or becoming more focused. It’s about recognizing that for some people, a loud brain isn’t a flaw — it’s how ideas form, how meaning gets made, and how creativity shows up. If your mind rarely goes quiet, this one’s for you.

    You're Not Lazy, You're Just Drained

    When motivation disappears, we’re quick to blame ourselves. Lazy. Unfocused. Unmotivated. But what if that’s not what’s happening at all? In this episode of Overworked, Under Creative, I talk about the difference between laziness and exhaustion — and how often we confuse the two. When you’ve been carrying too much for too long, the problem isn’t discipline. It’s depletion. This isn’t an episode about pushing harder or finding motivation. It’s about recognizing burnout for what it is, and giving yourself permission to stop turning exhaustion into a personal failure. If you’ve been beating yourself up for not having the energy you used to — this one’s for you.

    Momentum Matters: Why Comparison is Not the Enemy but a Distraction

    Comparison rarely shows up as jealousy. More often, it’s quieter than that. It sneaks in while you’re making progress, resets your internal clock, and convinces you that whatever you’re working on suddenly isn’t enough. In this episode of Overworked, Under Creative, I talk about how comparison quietly kills momentum — not by stopping you outright, but by draining the energy you need to keep going. It’s not about wanting what someone else has. It’s about losing trust in your own pace. This isn’t an episode about avoiding comparison entirely. It’s about recognizing when it’s stealing forward motion, and learning to protect the momentum you already have. If you’ve ever felt progress disappear the moment you looked sideways — this one’s for you.

    I Just Needed A Snowblower

    We’re diving into the wild world of curiosity and how it can turn a simple snowblower crisis into a full-blown project frenzy! Picture this: my snowblower crapped out on me mid-clear, and instead of just replacing it, I found myself knee-deep in research about horsepower like I was prepping for a trivia night. It’s a classic case of curiosity gone rogue, where one question leads to a rabbit hole of outdoor equipment, 3D printing, and all sorts of creative tangents. We’re chatting about how our brains love to expand when faced with a problem, morphing casual interest into a whirlwind of projects that can leave us overwhelmed. So, we’ll tackle the fine line between letting curiosity fuel our creativity and knowing when to hit the brakes before we drown in half-finished ideas. Grab your snow gear—it's gonna be a fun ride!
