In an age of constant content, we often find ourselves stuck in a cycle of watching, scrolling, saving… but not creating. This episode is a deep, honest reflection on what it means to reclaim your energy, time, and mindspace by prioritizing creativity over consumption.
We explore how the consumption of “certain content that doesn't provide value to you can lead to like watching or scrolling, can quietly become a distraction from doing the actual work. You'll learn why the act of creating (even imperfectly) leads to more opportunities, more growth, and more clarity about who you are and how it can change your life in the long term.
In conclusion, when you make more than you consume, you begin to lead your creative life from the inside out, not from what’s trending.
