Episode Description

This month on the pod, I’m going to be giving you a little creative pep talk about two things:

  1. Why your consistent creativity matters, even if you’re not publicly prolific
  2. A practical way to reach the level of consistency that feels right for your practice

After February’s episode on managing the overwhelm of productivity culture, I wanted to dig deeper into something specific that surfaced – the creative ideal of being prolific.

How can you escape the productivity ethos but still commit to creating more meaningful work (both in the sense of making stuff that captures deep meaning, and also in the sense of making that kind of stuff more often)?

I guess if last month was me talking shit about productivity, then this month is my follow-up on how to rehabilitate an aspect of it.

Tune in for three steps to nurture a more consistent creative practice – without getting sucked into the productivity trap.
