Should I Always Be Working And Hustling As An Artist? - Artist Podcast

from ARTIST PODCAST With Rafi And Klee · host Rafi And Klee Studios

In this podcast, Klee and I (Rafi) dive into the relentless pressure of the "hustle culture" that seems to follow artists everywhere. We tackle the big question: Should you always be working, or is there a point where the hustle actually starts to kill the art? We talk about the guilt that comes with taking a break, the fear of losing momentum, and why "scheduled laziness" might actually be the most productive thing you can do for your creativity. Whether you’re feeling burnt out or just wondering if you’re allowed to step away from the easel without the world ending, this episode is a reminder that you are a human being, not a content machine.
