In this solo episode, Erin Aquin digs into a question so many vision-led entrepreneurs wrestle with: how do you make meaningful progress on a major creative project when your life is already full?

Drawing from the behind-the-scenes story of writing multiple books during some of the busiest seasons of her life—new babies, lockdowns, growing the business, teaching, coaching—Erin shares what actually makes big creative commitments possible. Spoiler: it has less to do with time-blocking hacks and far more to do with how you care for yourself, how you relate to your vision, and the honesty with which you assess your own energy.

She walks through the practices that keep her grounded while working on her next book, including the non-negotiable self-investment rituals that make creativity sustainable. She also breaks down how she structures her days, why she abandoned the fantasy of 5 a.m. hustle, and what she learned from repeatedly creating ambitious projects inside busy, very human seasons of life.

What you'll take away:
  • Why self-investment isn't a luxury but the foundation for major creative work

  • How to distinguish between genuine desire and "goal swamp" motivations

  • A simple, clarifying daily question that keeps your projects aligned with your real vision

  • How to identify your personal peak creative windows and use them well

  • What to stop doing when you're avoiding your big work (and how to replace those habits)

  • How to celebrate progress when your project feels more like a marathon than a sprint

  • Practical ways to start today without waiting for life to "slow down"

For anyone with a book, program, product, or passion project sitting on the back burner, this episode offers a grounded reminder: you don't need more time, you need the right relationship with your vision.
