Today I’m talking about the stages of creativity and how we might work with them in a really practical way in our lives. I’ll also be launching monthly Creative Moon Circles as of TODAY! These will consist of me talking a little bit about the particular full moon we’re experiencing, how it might play into […]
What is creativity anyway? What does it mean to create, to be creative? Is it something we all have? Can we all do it? Can we all be it? And if so, can we become more creative? Is there some kind of definitive measuring stick for creativity? Now that’s the INTJ in me speaking, but […]
Today I want to talk to you about wanting things, all the things – and why we simply can’t get what we want. Ever. Sorry to burst your bubble. I promise there will be something redeeming and positive in today’s message: I want to prove to you that it can actually be a GOOD thing […]
This maybe the podcast I’ve done most research for in the history of the Creative Introvert, and not just book research.

If you remember back to 2018, my theme for that year was FUN. I attempted my year of fun, trying one new fun thing a week, and I learned a lot in the process about what I call fun. This year I decided to focus on… adventure. I’m still not sure what I mean by […]
Some of us have known what we wanted to be since we were little rug rats scribbling with crayons. A doctor, a firefighter, an astronaut – for some this has actually come true. But for the vast majority of us, we’ve floated through life – occasionally drawn to and captivated by something that convinced us […]
According to today’s podcast guest, being single does not mean being broken, lonely, or desperate. And whether or not you already knew that, it can feel like society at large is sending us another message. I rarely talk about matters of relationships on the podcast – mostly because I’m certainly no expert there – but […]
Everything we’ve experienced to this point plays a part in our overall story. And they don’t all have to flow together neatly into some overused Heroes Journey (though, it is overused for a reason, I’ll grant you.) The story I most often tell is how I left my job. I use this to illustrate how […]
