There are seasons when life feels busy, noisy, and full, and the creative freedom you once knew can feel like it belongs to another version of you. In these moments, it can be easy to assume your creativity has faded or that something is wrong. But often, it has simply changed shape.
In this episode, Sam shares her poem Creative Wind Chime, a tender reflection on how creativity continues to breathe through us even in demanding seasons. Rather than longing for how things used to be, this piece gently invites you to listen for the smaller, quieter ways your creative spirit still moves through your everyday life.
This episode explores:
• How creativity evolves rather than disappears in busy seasons
• Why “idle wanderings” and small creative moments still matter
• The shift from big, expressive creativity to softer, more subtle forms
• How to listen for your creativity like a delicate wind chime in the background of your life
• Why gentle beginnings can be deeply powerful in certain seasons
Creative Wind Chime is not a poem about loss, but about presence, patience, and learning to meet your creativity where you are now.
Reflection question:
Where, in the small and ordinary moments of your week, might your own “creative wind chime” be quietly trying to sound?
