  • How I'm restoring my creativity
    Sep 16 2025

    Do you ever feel like your creativity has flatlined? Like you’re stuck in the same routine, or your inner critic won’t let you try anything new unless it’s “good” right away?

    In this week’s episode, I’m sharing the playful, soul-nourishing, and sometimes messy ways I’ve been restoring my creativity. This all started from a little IG story I posted, and the response was so strong that I knew I had to expand it into a full conversation. I can't wait to hear what you think and what this episode sparks in you!

    Mentioned in the Podcast:

    The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron

    The Creative Act by Rick Rubin

    MIT ChatGPT Study

  • WTF I've been up to and WTF is next
    Sep 9 2025

    After months away from the mic, I’m back, and a LOT has shifted. In this episode, I spill the tea (literally, over a Fruit Loop London Fog) about navigating the messy in-between of timelines, finding peace, and landing a job that feels wildly aligned. If you’ve ever felt torn between sticking it out or walking away, this conversation will give you the honesty, perspective, and encouragement you need.
