Yayyy! I love that you found your way back. Have had many thoughts about creativity and its source lately. That creativity shows up in both rest and disruption—in the quiet, spacious moments, but also the friction and chaos of change. I've noticed that it tends to find me when I'm not trying to force it. And the more I create, the deeper the wellspring grows.
Thank you! I really really love this take—that creativity arrives in the quiet and chaotic moments. I personally find that emotions are such a catalyst for creative expression; some kind of outlet. Curious if you relate to that, and if you see emotions and creativity as inextricably connected?
Yes! Absolutely! The emotional exchange between the two is fascinating. Though I find creative insight during different emotional states, I'm learning that the act of creating (bringing vision to material) is heavily dependent on being in a peaceful, neutralized, grounded state. Wondering what your experience is?
Loved this read! I’ve found financial constraints (especially in starting a company) to be one of the greatest drivers of creativity. Makes you think about what really matters and what creates the most impact.

Couldn't agree with this more! Having a self-funded company in a world of VC-backed start ups, you really have to write your own playbook.
