Listen to this if:

1 - You feel creatively off or can’t find your creative thread at the moment

2 - You’re in a season where you’re not making as much as you want to be

3 - You feel in a low place creatively and need to remember why you care about creating

4 - You feel ill from so much doomscrolling and consuming short form video!
