          182: Your creative style will change

          Today we're debunking the myth that your creative style has to stay the same, and diving into how your creative voice evolves as you do!

           
           
           

          Episode transcript:

          Good morning, Daily Peppers, and a very happy Thursday to you. Your lesson to the daily pack, which is the only daily podcast. For creative, multi passionate, rebellious, and unconventional women, who wanna get out their own way and make shit happen. So earlier this week, we were talking all about this idea of finding your own creative style or your own creative voice and how it's something that so many of us struggle with. And we really dove into this idea that the only way you find it is by using it and by developing it and giving yourself permission to explore it. And I wanna dive a bit deeper into that today because I think so often there's this myth that you find your style and that's it. It's something that stays with you for life. It never changes, and you have to stick to that style.


          Now like we talked about earlier in the week, there are definitely gonna be patterns and themes that emerge in your work across your lifetime. There are things that make it uniquely you, that make it identifiable as you, but that doesn't mean it has to be this rigid concept. The reality is that over your life as your taste develop, as you have your life experiences and your stories, your style will evolve as you do. Our work and our creative voice tends to grow with us. And what that's gonna mean is that your work for one period of your life will probably look completely distinctly different to another period of your life. And I think sometimes we get caught up in this trap that maybe that means we didn't find our style or our voice after all, but that is just absolute bollocks. Your style is gonna change as you do. I know for me, if I look at my work from different years ago, there is the same thread that's running through it but it's definitely showing up in different ways.


          It's true for many of us creators that we look back on our past work and we see things that we would improve or we do differently. But that was a reflection of who we were at that time, of our experiences, of our tastes, of our styles. And it's okay if your style has evolved completely. In fact, I would be surprised if it hadn't. Around here, we're all about not fitting into a box. We're all about living the life that only you could live. And I just wanna remind you that that is true when it comes to your creativity as well. If you wanna change things up, do.


          And if you feel like you've stuck yourself in a box that you're outgrowing, I invite you to remember the Banksy quote, which is think outside the box, collapse the box, and take a fucking sharp knife to it. Your style will evolve as you evolve, as your interests evolve, as your passions evolve, as they do for us multipassionates. And that does not make you flighty or flaky or somebody who doesn't finish things. That makes you a human that is growing, that is changing, and that is emerging. So here's to embracing your creativity in all of its forms. Here's to not putting yourself in a box, and here's to knowing that change is natural. If you would like a weekly dose of rebel rising and permission to live outside the box in your email every week, make sure you're signed up to my Sunday emails where it's all about embracing being a creative, multifacetionate, rebellious, and unconventional woman. And it's all about building a life that only you can live, and I'm sharing how I'm building mine in the hope that it'll help you build yours.


          You can sign up to them by going to that therebelrousers.com and clicking on Sunday emails, or click the link in the show notes, and I would love to see you there. So until next time, stay creative, stay curious, and stay weird. See you then.

                                    168: Take a marathon approach

                                    Building a wholehearted creative life you love takes patience, grit and stamina. Today we’re diving into how to take a marathon approach instead of sprinting, which often leads to burnout.

                                     
                                     
                                     

                                    Episode transcript:


                                    Good morning Daily Peppers and a very happy Friday to you. It's nearly the end of the day. We made it. And if you're feeling a bit exhausted, and if you're feeling just quite worn out, well, hopefully this episode is gonna help. So yesterday on the daily pep, I was sharing all of my many issues with the idea of having positive vibes only. And today, I wanna dive into something that I find really personally helpful. I know a lot of my clients find helpful, and it's this idea of approaching life as a marathon, not a sprint. Now I can easily get really caught up into the whole kind of rhetoric around you only live once.


                                    And if I'm gonna be really honest with you, which I always am, that stresses me the fuck out. It feels like I'm being chased by a grandfather clock, and it just I don't even know where to begin. And I think there can be so much value with really looking and acknowledging how precious life is and really get an intention about what you wanna do with your time and what you want to leave with the world and how you wanna make the world a brighter place. But I think as well life can be long, and I know from a whole lot of experience that burnout is very real. While it can be tempting to approach life like a sprint, at some point, you're just gonna run out of steam. Like we were talking about yesterday about positive vibes only, it's just not sustainable and I think sustainability has to be a huge part of the conversation when it comes to building a wholehearted creative life that you love and that only you could live. And I think not only is it unsustainable, it's also pretty unrealistic especially at the moment when we're surrounded by so much uncertainty. I know so many of us are feeling so much more tired than normal and we're just not able to go at a a pace that maybe we're used to going at.


                                    And not only is that okay, it's probably to be expected at this point. So my daily pet for you today is just to get curious about taking your foot off the gas pedal quite so hard. It's about looking at how you can get intentional about how you spend your time in a way that's sustainable and really fills you up for the long term. Now I know there are gonna be some people listen to this where that just doesn't feel realistic at the moment because they're putting out fires every which way they turn. And if that's you, if you can find even the smallest pockets of time to take for yourself, and I get that might feel particularly impossible right now, Try to. But if you are not fighting fires right now, think about how you can really start to approach life like a marathon. See how you can schedule in breaks. See what kind of fuel you need to keep yourself going.


                                    Look at the kind of support you need and look at getting that support. And instead of giving a 100%, and let's face it, around here it's more like 310% to everything you do, What if you tried to give your equivalent of 70%? Because chances are your 70% is already fucking fantastic. So this weekend, remember that it's not a sprint. There is no gold medal of life and let's face it, there definitely is no gold medal if you're too burnt out to get to where you want to go. So take off your super speedy running shoes, get into something a bit more comfortable, and think about what a marathon approach would look like for you. I hope you have a fabulous weekend. I hope you get to take some time just for you. And if you miss a daily pep on the weekend, make sure you sign up to my Sunday emails where I share all the things I'm learning about all the tips and things that help build a wholehearted creative life that only you can live and all of the personal most vulnerable stuff that I just don't share anywhere else.


                                    And you can get those emails by going to that hummingbirdlife.com and clicking on send their emails or just click the link in the show notes. Have a good one and I can't wait to be back with you bright and early on Monday morning. Take care.
