Listen "Dealing with Creative Burnout & Making Your Life Magical"
Episode Synopsis
In every field, burnout is our antagonist.That's why this week, Gumption hosts the multi-faceted Ohio-based creator and author who's sure to inspire, Kathryn Houghton. Houghton has built a community of people who appreciate the fantastical, both on the page and in real life. Her Instagram, @fieldsofliterature, is a beautiful collection of books, outfits, vintage and antique treasures, art, adventures, and VIBES. (Seriously, if you're a fan of the dark academia aesthetic, her page might as well be Heaven.) We chat about her journey into content creation and seeking out magical experiences everyday. And very timely to Lil's recent announcement, we delve into Houghton's process of publishing her first novel, Come to the Lighthouse.You can grab your copy of CTTL on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple Books, or look out for local bookstore events to get your signed copy. (Hey Columbus folks, next one is at Griffeys Book Emporium on January 12th, 2024). You can also secure some CTTL merch here, and check out Kathryn's Youtube for more content! Also explore the Mount Vernon Inn's Instagram and website. HIGHLY recommend staying here if you're traveling to Ohio, or for a staycation!Speaking of MERCH, we just dropped our FIRST EVER merch collection. Rep the show with these cozy, cool designs from our merch website. Share photos of what you chose when you're "in the wild", and tag us @GumptionPod! You can find our bookworm holiday gift guide on our Instagram story, including allll gift links.Sign up to receive email updates about Lily's debut poetry collection, Airports & Art Museums, and check out her brand new website while you're at it (pssst- Gumption will have a landing page here soon)!
