What’s really behind our creative blocks? 

Are you actually "blocked" or is there a truth trying to make its way out and give you a message? 

Sometimes what looks like procrastination, resistance, boredom, and blocks is really your inner self raising its hand to deliver a message.

You’re not broken, you don’t need fixing. You just need to listen to what the blocks might be telling you. 

In this episode, we explore 5 things a creative block might be revealing about your business and marketing: 

  • What happens when we're evolving and changing 
  • How it looks when the method is wrong (even if the goal is right) 
  • What to do if you're bored 
  • Looking at areas of misalignment or being out of integrity 
  • Watch out for being too busy 
  • And more! 

Maybe… this isn’t a block at all. Maybe you’re not actually stuck, maybe you’re just ready to step up a little bigger and bolder and create from the inside out.
