    Where Do You Go From Here?

    You’ve done the work. Now it’s time to begin. In this final episode, I bring the Pick Your Next Project process together and talk about how to turn clarity into momentum. Once you’ve chosen a project, the next step is building a simple structure to support it — what I call the Triangle of Momentum. By setting supportive boundaries, taking consistent action, and surrounding yourself with the right people, you create the conditions that allow creative work to move forward. Creativity isn’t a single decision — it’s an ongoing cycle of choosing, making, learning, and choosing again. You can explore this step further in the Pick Your Next Project Workbook, which includes guided exercises to help you apply what you hear in this episode.With infinite love and gratitude, Beth Get full access to The Infinite Creator at bethlapides.substack.com/subscribe

    My Constellation

    After all the inner work of choosing your next project, it’s time to look outward! In this episode, I introduce the idea of your constellation — by placing your project at the center of a creative constellation. This visual method of mapping influences and communities helps you envision your work out in the world, seeing it as others will — in relationship to other work. By understanding that context, you can better understand the work itself and how audiences might find it. Rather than comparing or diminishing yourself, your constellation helps you see the patterns that create visibility and a sense of belonging.

    Fear and Hope Invenstory

    Fear and hope. Two powerful and connected forces shaping our biggest creative decisions. Well, our whole lives. In this episode, I invite you to take inventory of both. I actually call it the invenstory. Because they do tell the story of your past and help you create the story of your future. By naming your fears clearly — instead of avoiding or generalizing them — you can begin to understand how they influence the projects you choose. At the same time, by cultivating and understanding the nature of your specific hopes - and recognizing how a hope is different than a wish - you reconnect with what your true heart’s desire is. Both in terms of what you want to make. And who you hope to become. Together, these two inventories offer a deeper way of choosing your next project: not by eliminating fear, but by balancing it with a clear vision of what you hope for — and by learning to notice the “green lights” that signal possibility.

    What Not To Do

    Sometimes the most helpful step in choosing your next project is knowing what not to do. In this episode, I share some of the most common traps creatives fall into when trying to make an important decision. From beating yourself up about past choices, to endlessly postponing the moment of picking, to listening to the many “shoulds” that surround creative work — these patterns can keep even the most talented people stuck. By recognizing these traps and gently shifting away from themyou create space to make a clearer, more honest decision about what to do next.

    Your Triangle

    There are many things - maybe even an infinite number of them - that make you who you are. But three of them often carry particular gravity and clarity, and can be key to picking your next project. In this episode, I introduce The Triangle, a deceptively simple tool that I have been using for years with clients and students. It helps you go deep, and identify three defining qualities that shape how you move through the world. They shine a light on your best material. By placing these qualities at the corners of a triangle - with your creative life at the center - you can begin to see more clearly which projects are aligned with your story as well as who you are - and which ones may fight your nature. Your triangle becomes a decision tool, helping you choose projects that are fed by your life rather than starved by it.

    What's Your Story?

    It’s true you have lots of stories. But also, only one story. In this episode, we explore how your stories — the experiences that shape your life — can help reveal the projects that are meaningfully yours to make. I invite you to begin collecting the stories that have formed you. Then to start looking for the thread that connects them. Why? Because answering the question What is my story? can also help answer another one: What project does my story compel me to do?

    Why Me? Why Now?

    Why Me? Why Now?Why is this your project—and why is now the moment to begin? What makes you the one to bring it to life? What is yours to bring to it? Projects are like butterflies. They land on us, and it always feels magical. Purposeful. With a butterfly, you can only guess why it chose you. With a project, you don’t have to guess. You can understand why it found you, and why it found you now. In this episode, I introduce one of the most powerful questions in creative decision-making: Why me, why now? Every project lives at the intersection of personal experience and timing. When you recognize why a particular idea belongs to you — and why this moment in your life and in the world is calling for it — the path forward becomes much clearer.

    Your Questions

    Your Questions Questions come before answers - but in our rush to find the answer, we sometimes skip this step. It isn’t always immediately clear what our real questions are, but discovering them is one of the most important parts of the creative process. In this episode, we explore how curiosity becomes a creative compass. The questions that stay with us over time—the ones you can’t stop asking—often reveal the direction your creativity wants to go. Instead of forcing an idea, you begin by listening to what’s already alive in you.

    Start Where You Are

    Before choosing your next project, before deciding where you're headed, you need to know where you are. Pick Your Next Project is a nine-part guided audio experience designed to help you choose your next project—and, in the process, become the person who can make it. In this opening episode, Beth Lapides introduces the core idea behind this life-changing work. Deciding what to make next is one of the most important decisions on a creative path. Every creative work begins with a decision—but the project you choose doesn’t just shape your work. It shapes you. And maybe even the world. Instead of searching endlessly for the “right idea”—the one that will become a bestseller, win an award, or turn into a hit show—start by locating yourself. Take stock of your life, your energy, your experiences, and your circumstances. Clarity doesn’t come from looking farther ahead. It begins by knowing where you are. Explore this step further in the Pick Your Next Project Workbook, with guided exercises to help you discover where you are now—and where you want to go next.
