Episode Synopsis

I spent many years needing to feel “productive” everyday — a word that was programmed into me, and which I clung to — but which felt wholly insufficient in trying to measure creative work, especially when self-employed. in this episode, I’ll tell you my journey — from being a productivity addict, to rejecting all imposed structures, to slowly, over time, reimagining what a sustainable, regenerative system actually looks and feels like.I made this podcast shortly after creating my zine, in preparation for teaching a new course, Creative Systems. 📓 Zine: Deconstructing the Productivity Machine (download)🪺 Creative Systems Course (self-paced study)also mentioned: The Serviceberry: an Economy of Abundance (essay) by Robin Wall KimmererA Moody Creative’s Guide to Work Overwhelm ~💌 sign up for ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠my letters⁠⁠🏡 explore ⁠⁠⁠house on the webs course⁠🪷 inquire about ⁠⁠⁠advising sessions⁠⁠⁠💧 ⁠⁠⁠water⁠⁠⁠ my world
