I know I’m not the only creative out there who struggles with anxiety. But I’m pretty sure we can all agree that it sucks. For a long time I felt so alone in my struggles. Like no one understood what I was feeling. I found the more I spoke up about it the more I connected with others just like myself. That’s why I’ve created this space, so you can come hang out while I chat about everything from business to relationships and all the awkward and interesting inbetweens of living a creative life. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, and you’ll for sure cringe at an inside look of the life of an anxious creative.

The Anticipation Trap: Why Fear Feels Bigger Than It Is (and How to Take Action Anyway)
Do you ever feel like fear has a bigger hold on you than it should? In this episode, we’re diving deep into "The Anticipation Trap"—that overwhelming fear of the unknown that keeps us stuck. Using personal stories (like my skydiving adventure) and hard-earned life lessons, I’m sharing why fear feels so massive in the lead-up to action and how you can break free from its grip. Whether it’s a tough conversation, a big career move, or taking a bold leap, I’ll show you how to move forward with confidence—even if the outcome is uncertain.
