Do you ever feel an inherent tension between the pull of your creative passions and the need to pay for groceries?
When you think about developing the more creative parts of your life and yourself, do you get stuck worrying if it's selfish, entitled, or unwise to give into these desires?
Do you feel that your spirit gets deadened or dulled sometimes by the monotony of day to day living?
Do you sometimes settle for following “rules” that you believe will get you stability, security and ultimately a happy life?
How is that going for you?
In today’s episode, I unpack the topic of creativity and joy by asking questions more than providing answers. I challenge you to think critically about what it means to be a creative being, what happens when we abandon our true creative nature, and what becomes possible when we embrace our creative selves fully.

0:33.9 | Hi, and welcome back to the Write Your Story podcast. |
0:36.7 | I'm Ali Fallon. I'm your host and I have a really |
0:39.6 | great episode planned for you today. I'm excited to dive into the topic that I have written down |
0:45.8 | to talk about, but I want to preface this by just saying that this episode, and maybe all the |
0:50.4 | episodes of my podcast are like this, but this episode feels in particular like one that I'm |
0:55.8 | approaching with a lot more questions than answers. What I'm hoping that this episode will do |
1:00.7 | is to open a dialogue. And this is interesting because I feel like I've shifted into this space |
1:07.0 | as a creator, a content creator, a writer, a podcaster, a person of influence. I hate using |
1:14.1 | the word influencer, but yes, someone who has built a platform for myself and who tries to use |
1:19.7 | that platform to the best of my abilities. I've shifted from standing in confidence as an educator. |
