2.14 - Make space for creative joy; release expectations of yourself

How many times have you heard the term “don’t get your hopes up” when submitting your project to a contest or publishing organization? Whether this is a voice that comes externally, internally, or both, it can certainly throw a curveball in your emotional journey as a creative.

The last thing you need when putting yourself out there is a voice telling you to reign your expectations in. But where do these expectations come from? Are they all negative? And how can they play a role in renewing your life?

In today’s episode we’ll discuss:

• Not all expectations are negative. There are empowering expectations that can remind us of our Why.

• Why some expectations that may start off positive, can result in holding us back.

• Pulling the curtain back on these expectations to reveal narratives that need to be released.

Always remember to be aware of your intentions, and take accountability for the expectations that could make or break your creative journey.
