This week was a rollercoaster of emotions. At one point I felt so inspired, fulfilled, like I was on top of the world. And in the next moment, all of that confidence and excitement was squashed and I felt like I was worthless and ridiculous. And then I had to take some time to pick up the pieces and level myself. Let me tell you the story about what happened.
After reviewing the podcast, I do have some afterthoughts. I forgot to mention how part of that blow was that I didn’t feel appreciated for my work or my help, and that added to the anger and frustration. That’s another topic for another day. Today we can just focus on the creative ego aspect.
My point is, we all have issues and soft spots that we can work out. One at a time. Awareness is the first step, then rewiring your beliefs (like how I did in my digital journal afterward) is the next step.
Comment below if you can relate or if you have your own story to share. Wishing you all continuous healing <3
I certainly understand the fall of creativity. I’ve been living with it for a few years. Every time I try to get back to it my heart just isn’t in it. Your podcasts and videos are always a source of peace and inspiration. Thank you, Aileen
lavendaire! there’s one book I highly recommend if you haven’t read it about the asking for help-thing: the art of asking by amanda palmer. this book has helped me a lot and is such a great inspiration…:)
