0:00.0	On the creative journey it's easy to get lost but don't worry you'll lift off
0:10.0	sometimes you just need a creative pep talk.
0:17.0	Hey, you're listening to Creative P Talk, a weekly podcast companion for your
0:26.5	creative journey. I'm Annie Jay Pizza. I'm a New York Times best-selling
