Join the Becoming Obsessed Group Chat for Exclusive ContentWhat if you made something just because you wanted to—not because it would sell, perform, or go viral?
In this episode, I’m joined by certified life coach, voiceover artist, and SAG-AFTRA performer Maddie McGuire for a wildly honest convo on reclaiming your creativity and giving yourself permission to get a little messy.
We talk about the pressure to “make it,” the moments that make you want to quit, and what happens when you finally let go of the need for everything to be productive. From building a career in the entertainment industry to launching her podcast Get Messy with Maddie, Maddie shares how she’s learning to create from a place of joy—not fear—and how that one shift changed everything.
If you've ever felt stuck, stifled, or burnt out from trying to get it “right,” this one’s for you.
What We Talk About:
✨ What it really means to create without an outcome
🌀 Trusting your process—even in the chaos
🎭 Building a career as a multi-passionate creative
🧠 Learning how to stop waiting for permission
🎙 Launching a podcast just because you wanted to
🌊 Finding calm through play, routine, and creative rituals
