In this episode of The Courage to Live a Big Life, I share a powerful reminder from the life of Hayao Miyazaki—one of the greatest animators and storytellers of our time. After watching the documentary, “10 Years with Hayao Miyazaki,” I was inspired by his honest, raw process, revealing that even the most legendary creative geniuses face doubt, despair, and uncertainty.
Miyazaki’s journey teaches us that doubt isn’t the enemy—it’s the signal that we are on the edge of something real. His story reminds us that the dark phases of creation are signs of a vital, generative process, not failure. If you're stuck, return to your work, trust the process, and remember that greatness is born from creating anyway, even when you can’t see the whole picture.
Join me as I celebrate the messy, beautiful process of creation, and encourage you to stay in it until your breakthroughs appear.
