Description

Lately I’ve found myself stuck in an outdated story around success, failure, and where I think I “should” be by now.

This seems to happen every summer when sales/downloads/open-rates dip right as my creative energy surges. And while I can notice that pattern… it doesn’t make the feelings go away.

So to support myself through it, last week I re-listened to my episode on Success Being a Cycle and put up my feelers for some creative wisdom on how to orient yourself when everything seems to go dark.

And I found inspiration from a few unlikely places!

So in this Clubhouse-exclusive minisode, I weave together:

• Tilda Swinton on softening your dreams
• Scottie Scheffler on finding satisfaction outside your work
• Kevin Kelly on a different way to do great work
• & adrienne maree brown on being satisfiable

I hope this episode can serve as the pep talk you/me might need to pause, reorient, and keep working toward our dreams.
