Why does creating art feel so hard and complicated? Dear creative mind, you’re not blocked, there are knots in your creative process… which can be untangled. And you’re not stuck, you’re committed to certain patterns because they serve a purpose… and you can unlearn them and support yourself in a more helpful way. So let’s explore these creative knots.


Some typical challenges we go through + questions to reflect on:



  • Indecisiveness: Are you avoiding making a decision right now? Could this be creating this feeling of stuckness?

  • Perfectionism: What do you expect of yourself for the project you're working on, or your business this year? Is there space for joy here?

  • Procrastination: Am you truly too busy, or are you busy avoiding what you really need to do?

  • People-pleasing: Do you know where your boundaries are? And do you respect them?

  • Imposter syndrome: How do you not want to be perceived? How does it affect your creative growth?

  • The nature of our free-spirited mind: How can you use your creative mind to your advantage?

  • The stories, myths and social conditioning around being an artist: What story do you believe about being an artist? How does it affect your ability to thrive?


Which of these knots have you experienced before? Where do you feel it comes from? And what is the consequence of staying committed to these stories?


Because they really are just… stories.
