What happens when you challenge yourself to write 100 songs in one year? How can structure, within creativity, free you? In this episode, artist and longtime Unleash listener, Maria (aka her stage name, Monelise), shares how her year-long songwriting experiment helped her reconnect with her creative essence, release perfectionism, and merge her onstage persona with her true self. From burnout to flow, this conversation is for any creative who’s ready to recommit to their authentic voice, get unblocked and see the limitless potential of your own creativity.
From this episode, you’ll learn:
-How to create flexible structure that unlocks, not stifles, creative flow
-Why showing up every day (even when it’s hard) builds trust with your muse
-What to look for in a creative accountability partner
-What to do with unreleased creative work and how to stop seeing it as wasted
