Episode 7: Practical Ways to Squeeze Creativity Into Your Busy Life

We definitely don’t want to be like those parenting books that tell you what you’re doing wrong (which you already knew), but don’t offer any practical advice on how to actually make changes. In this episode, we compile a bunch of actual road-tested strategies to squeeze creativity into the nooks and crannies of our busy lives. We hope some of what we share will be helpful to you, and we would love to hear your ideas! This week’s Good Fight Spotlight highlights Callie Murray whose debut novel The Brunswick comes out today. Today also happens to be our very own Brynn Barineau’s release date for Jungle of Ashes so go out and support these moms who are doing the dang thing, y’all! Leave Snack for this week: Look for one part of your day where you can take something you already have to do and make it a little less mundane and a little more creative. Whether it's packing lunches, listening to music, making up stories or songs with your kids — where is an opportunity to notice and add some creation? Maybe make yourself a creativity first aid kit to take to ball practice, for example. This is a public episode.
