In this week’s episode, we’re diving into the reality of navigating the colder, quieter months as a creative, and why your environment, routines, and mindset matter more than ever.


We start by talking about the importance of having your own creative space. Whether you’re working from home, a warm office, or a buzzing London coffee shop, the place you create in can completely shape your productivity, your motivation, and your sense of community, especially during winter when energy is low and projects slow down.


We also get into the guilt that comes with losing momentum. Those quieter months can make you feel like you’re falling behind, but the truth is: the year balances itself out. Busy seasons always return. Learning not to punish yourself for slower phases is part of staying in the game long-term.


Finally, we break down the practical side of winter: revisiting your business systems, removing old processes, updating portfolios, tightening workflows, optimising websites, and making sure your business runs clean so you’re ready for the next wave of work.
