👉 We walk through a gentle, no-guilt year-end reflection for dancers, actors, singers, writers, and visual artists who are tired of grading themselves on output alone.

👉 You’ll learn how to name the kind of year you actually had (recovery, seed-planting, survival), how your nervous system distorts your “year in review,” and three simple questions to honour your season instead of attacking it.

Comparison is one of the fastest ways to disconnect from your own creative identity. In this episode, we’re talking about what really happens inside an artist when the noise gets loud — the scrolling, the pressure, the “why am I even trying?” spiral — and how to quiet it so you can show up with clarity again.

Whether you’re a performer, maker, storyteller, or creative soul of any kind, this episode will help you understand what comparison is really doing to your nervous system, your confidence, and your momentum — and how to reclaim your voice before the noise convinces you to disappear.

You’re waiting for the perfect moment, the polished idea, the breakthrough project that finally proves your art matters — but the pressure to make something big keeps you frozen.

In this What Works episode of Healthy Wealthy Wise Artist, Lara Bianca Pilcher shares how small, sustainable steps reignite creative momentum. You’ll learn the psychology behind why “big goals” overwhelm the nervous system, how to use micro-movement to rebuild confidence, and why small work is often the truest work.

If you’ve been stuck under the weight of your own expectations, this is your gentle permission slip to begin again.

🎯 In this episode, you’ll discover:

🎨 Why the brain confuses big goals with danger — and how to calm that response.

🧠 How completion (not perfection) restores creative trust.

🌱 A 15-minute Creative Spark challenge to help you start small — and stay consistent.

Because thriving as an artist isn’t about constant output — it’s about rhythm, rest, and the courage to start small.

The silence can mess with your head.

You’re showing up — sending self-tapes, writing, rehearsing, painting, creating — and nothing’s landing. It feels like the world has gone quiet on your art, and you start to wonder if you’re doing something wrong.

But here’s the truth: the slow season isn’t proof that you’ve fallen behind. It’s part of both your creative rhythm and the reality of a saturated industry. In this grounded, honest conversation, Lara explores how to stay steady when your work feels invisible — and why your quiet seasons might still be shaping something powerful underneath the surface.

In this episode:

🎯 How to tell the difference between a true creative block and a slow season

🧠 Why your nervous system plays a key role in creative rhythm and recovery

🌱 What to do when you’re creating, but the world isn’t responding yet
