Have you heard the expression "don't pick up the rope"? I first came upon it in a book about codependency while supporting my son through his struggles with alcohol and addiction. Time and time again, I found myself trapped in unproductive cycles, engaging in conflicts that led nowhere. This expression encourages us to let go of the need to have the last word, and to instead prioritize our own well being and personal journey.You might be thinking. What does this have to do with creativity?Admittedly, it might not be an obvious connection. But on my walk to the studio, I was thinking how social media, our phones, and the limitless access to endless inspo can be a bit like the rope. We can choose not to pick it up and to stay focused on our unique vision, calling, or creative path.This idea might resonate with you or, perhaps, you, like me, simply needed a reminder that we don't have to pick up the rope in conversations that ultimately lead us nowhere.

I accidentally (maybe not accidentally at all) stumbled upon a new-to-me inspiration this week. Trevor MoawadIn 2021, Trevor Moawad passed away at the age of 48. He was a sport psychologist who had worked with notable professional athletes such as Russell Wilson and authored the books "It Takes What It Takes" and "Getting to Neutral."Though I have only just begun exploring his ideas, I am eager to share what I have learned so far.Pour a cuppa, put in your earbuds and have a little listen. And as always, I’d love to hear your thoughts, in the comments or in my Insta-Dm’s.Links+Getting to Neutral by Trevor Moawad+The Momentum MethodIf you’re enjoying the podcast be sure to subscribe on your favorite podcast app. And I would LOVE it if you’d leave a review and/or 5 stars. ♡ xxKim

I love this entry from Julia Cameron’s Artists Way Everyday book.When we are unable to work we can work at the work of getting ready to work. Writers can lay in supplies of paper and enticing pens, notepads that plead “Please write on me.” Painters can prepare their canvases, clean their brushes, neaten their studio space. Potters can acquire a new lump of cool clay and clear the table space where they will knead and shape it. Gentle things can be done.Whether you’re feeling inspired, so-so or completely stuck, creatively or in any part of life.This beautiful wisdom from Julia Cameron is one to hold on to.Gentle things can be done.”HTTP://kimklassen.com
