Summary

Some folks think creativity is all about the ideas, and others say that ideas are a dime a dozen and what really counts is the execution. But the truth is - each layer of a creative project matters and in this episode we identify the crucial layers and how to approach them to give your creative projects everything they need to take off! Whether you’re someone who rushes to put stuff out there before it’s ready or someone who gets bored after the idea phase and can’t seem to finish anything, this episode is for you! In this episode my collaborator and friend Kyle Scheele go through the 6 lessons we learned over the past few years on the journey to publish our new kids book “A Pizza with Everything On It”. This episode is jam packed with tips and mindset shifts that will help you take your next creative project to the next level!
