Moments to listen for:
It's a practice to live in an emotionally available sort of way. - 18:27
So easy to be like, it's, it's a practice to live in an emotionally available sort of way. Yeah, but also not just like, take on everybody shit all the time. Like, it's a very, very fine line, because a lot of people who are very emotional, you know, become very empathetic, and then they take on everybody else's crap. And it can become overwhelming.
The struggles are similar. The causes are what are different - 22:50
There are definitely similar struggles. And I mean, I think it's pretty obvious to say things like, you know, low self-worth, or lack of confidence, or imposter syndrome, like, those are things a lot of creative people struggle with. And so I see those come up. But often the causes are, what are different.
Are you getting on the wrong bus - 34:34
Take a random Tuesday from five years from now, if everything were to go right in your life, and you were to have everything that you absolutely want. What does that Tuesday look like? From the moment you wake up until the moment you go to bed. Write as much detail as possible what art is on the walls. What do you eat for breakfast? Who do you see that day? How much do you work everything else like that, because it gives you a place to aim. You can then ask yourself, is it moving me closer or further away from that? Am I getting on the wrong bus, essentially.
