    When you lose momentum | honoring slow creative seasons

    When you lose momentum | honoring slow creative seasons

    Creativity moves in seasons — and sometimes the season we find ourselves in are slow and tender. It’s these slow seasons where my mind is often the harshest — rattled with criticism on why I’m not moving faster, producing more, or showing up in a particular way. In this video, we contemplate how to honor these slower creative seasons, tune in to the medicine our body needs, and find some magic along the way.
