032: Steal This Imagination Practice to Break Through Creative Blocks and Perfectionism

from Creative Permission Slip: Empowerment Through Creativity

Your imagination is not a gift reserved for artists and inventors — it is a built-in human superpower you are already using every single day, whether you know it or not.Aimee Carlson sits down with writer and artist Sarah Bush to explore the untapped potential of imagination and what it truly means to live and create from a place of confidence and self-trust. Sarah breaks down the four dimensions of imagination — creating, imagining as, becoming, and protecting — and shares why worrying, perfectionism, and fear are all just imagination running in the wrong direction. She also walks through the predictable rhythms of the creative process, including the dreaded messy middle, and why hitting a wall is not a sign you don't belong in the creative space but a sign you are right on track.If you have ever told yourself you are not creative, this conversation is your permission slip to think again and to finally give yourself the grace to begin.Sarah Bush, sarahbushartworks.comhttps://sarahbush.substack.com/Connect with Aimee:https://www.sheforcecoach.comWith special appreciation to Crooked Line Studios https://crookedlinestudio.com in Billings, MT for their collaboration.
