In episode 5, Brie Stockwell shares a powerful practice for creatives: collecting evidence of your own success. Drawing from neuroscience and her own photography journey, Brie explains how retraining your brain to focus on what’s working can increase confidence, reduce self-doubt, and boost creative momentum. She shares why our brains are wired to focus on the negative, how to work with that wiring (not against it), and the small but powerful ways we can begin to shift our attention toward the positive.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
What negativity bias is and how it affects your creative work
Why noticing small wins leads to bigger success
How to train your reticular activating system to see what’s going right
Simple tools to build your “evidence collection” of wins
How this practice reduces stress and builds resilience
This isn’t about fluff or feel-good affirmations—it’s a practical, grounded approach to boosting your creative mindset with real data: your own wins.
