🎤 Welcome back to The Creative Life Podcast.
This episode is a counterpart to last week’s — but where that one was raw, unscripted, and full of spontaneous ideas in real-time, this one is more structured and delves deeper into the underlying themes.
It all began with a moment that shook me: walking into my creative space and feeling I had nothing to give.
But that feeling turned out to be a doorway — not into emptiness, but into the deeper truth of why we drift from our creative Self, and how we start finding our way back.
Drawing on ideas from Jung and Joseph Campbell, I explore why a creative block isn’t a dead end but an invitation. An inner signal that something in our life, our work, or our attention needs to change.
If you’re a creative feeling overwhelmed, flooded, or disconnected from the work you love, this episode offers a path back to building up new momentum & a way to reconnect with your centre of meaning:
- 💧 Why we feel “empty” when the real issue is inner flooding
- 🧭 How a single honest sentence can guide you back to the Self
- 🌀 Why blocks are signals of transformation, not failure
- 🔍 How societal + tech pressure seeps into your inner life
- 🔥 Where momentum returns when you rebuild from the core
Thank you for all the support for getting here, guys - here's to Episode 50!
