I write a newsletter to help you stay on it 👉 https://jim-kroft.short.gy/0925A/Jim-Kroft-newsletter___________________Welcome back to The Creative Life Podcast.This week I’m sharing the story behind a three-month stretch of deep creative resistance — a period where I thought I was breaking down, only to realise something far more important was breaking out of me.It’s a personal episode, but a hopeful one. Because what came out of this resistance has given me the clearest sense of direction I’ve had in years.If you’re a creative who feels dispersed, off-centre, or unable to return to your core work, I think there will be lots of good stuff in here for you.🎯 Why resistance hits hardest when you’ve drifted too far from your centre🎹 How one raw moment at the piano was a gateway back to my own musical heart🧭 How to recognise misalignment before it becomes a full creative stall (especially when dispersed)✂️ Why radical subtraction can help you get back to the core🔄 How to rebuild momentum when you’ve lost the thread of a projectThanks guys - rating and reviewing (or even better sharing!) so appreciated!JimAll music in this episode is my own — stream it on Spotify.
