With all my recent travels, I've gotten to examine my deep anxieties about traveling, my overwhelming desire for it to be over, to have already arrived.
I'm learning that the not knowing what will be, the inability to anticipate and solve problems that have not yet materialized, make it excrutiating to venture forth.
The same applies to creativity.
Not knowing where an opportunity will lead, who will control the final product, what compromises I might need to make... all of these worries keep me from stepping into the unknown.
I recently (attempted) to drive through a snowstorm. (I severely underestimated Canadian winters!) What I learned in watching myself navigate the unknown, in real time, is a lesson I'd like to take into my creative projects.
Learning to trust myself.
Come check out the Hot Mess series on TikTok, and watch as I lose my mind - and find it again - writing, producing, and acting in a show!
