LACKING CREATIVITY AND INSPIRATION - how...

Ashley Corbo
About this episode
Whether you're a podcaster, content creator, artist, or just someone feeling stuck, this episode's for you. I'm diving into the mindset traps that keep us from authentically creating and being inspired.

Today's episode I talk about
- The need to constantly be creating
- Being too focused on others: Comparison/Following rather than leading
- Perfectionism: Being too critical/Being scared of failure
- Worrying too much about the logistics: Having a niche/The details/Over saturation
- The steps for creativity and making it work
- Journal prompts to help you discover what matters to you
