Still Here - Why Resilience Is a Creative Act

This week’s episode isn’t about trends, trolls, or gear. It’s about something quieter — the part of you that refuses to give up, even when the work feels impossible.We explore the idea of creative resistance, the myth of “falling behind,” and why showing up (even in small ways) is its own kind of creative power. There’s a story about trees, Biosphere 2, and why life’s “wind” might be shaping you more than you think.We also talk about:The reality of trying to make work while making rent.How surviving is creative.Why creative seasons matter (even the dormant ones).Lessons from Toni Morrison, Gregory Heisler, and Joe McNally.This one’s for anyone who’s tired, unsure, or just needs a reminder that still being here — still caring, still seeing — is enough.CreditsEpisode Photo by Claudio Schwarz  | UnsplashSubscribe to Field NotesThe podcast is the campfire, Field Notes is what you take home.
