Welcome back to The Creative Life Podcast.

In the last couple of episodes, I talked about a period of resistance in my creative life. 
Today, I wanted to go deeper. Not to repeat myself — but to make the lessons clearer, more practical, and more usable for anyone facing their own block.

Because resistance isn’t abstract.
 It has a message.
 It has a direction.
 And when you finally stop avoiding it, it becomes the doorway back to your real work.

In this episode, I break down exactly how I moved from being stuck — creatively, emotionally, spiritually — to reconnecting with the centre of my project, rebuilding momentum, and making the big decisions that changed the year.

Whether you’re a musician, writer, or artist trying to find your way back to what matters, this episode gives you a step-by-step you can actually use.

What's Inside: 

• 🧭 How resistance shows up when you’ve drifted from your real creative driver
• 🙏 Why surrender, not effort, is often the turning point
• ✍️ How to name the one move you’ve been avoiding — and finally make it
• 🧹 What removing obstacles does for your creative energy
• 🎶 How reconnecting to the habit brings the work alive again

Let’s get into it.
