    Do you feel like your work is very you-ish?

    How do you make creative work that really feels authentic?

    What does that even mean!?

    Today’s episode is a deep dive conversation and we cover a lot of topics around making authentic work.

    We talk about:

    How to strip away the ego and throw off trying to be cool.

    Why instagram being kind of over for artists might be a good thing.

    Why doing your thing often starts with being part of something bigger than yourself.

    Why art and collaboration is a fight and why that’s a good thing

    And we touch a bit on ai and why it doesn't matter what it can and cannot do!

    Some other ai thoughts I haven’t heard anywhere else!

    This is a different type of episode, this time I am being interviewed, on the captain offscript podcast, and I had so much fun that I had to share it with all of you here! Hope you love it.

    You have the ideas. Where you trip up is the executive dysfunction. It’s getting yourself to start, middle, and finish the thing strong.

    Most of us start making things because on some level it feels good! It feels like a meditation. It brings flow. It helps us process.

    But if you ever get serious about your work, you may also accidentally lose all these positives and replace them with negative side effects like pressure, anxiety, and even despair.

    If you want to get back to the kind of creative practice that lifts you up instead of triggers you, this episode is for you!

    Gemma Correll is a world-renowned illustrator and cartoonist with one of the most personal and practical creative practices that I know of. She has been art journaling way before it was cool, and it’s turned into a cathartic experience that she now shares with the world through her online comics and now her phenomenal graphic memoir “Anxietyland”.

    We discuss:

    1 - How to access that energy of making just for yourself before you think about anyone else.

    2 - The power and pitfalls of mixing creativity with your mental health.

    3 - What type of creative community we hope to see evolve in a post-social media-centric world.

    It’s been 2 years since we originally aired this episode.

    This is part 1 of our 6 part audio memoir series “Right Side Out”.

    On the surface it’s about my journey with ADHD and making peace with being “just like my mom”. But underneath, what it’s really about, is YOU. It’s about how to love yourself enough to get curious about who you are.

    If you have had trouble finding your style, voice or sensibility as an artist, it might be because you’ve jumped to making for others too quickly. First and foremost, creative work helps us get our inner world onto the page so that we can get an outside perspective on ourselves. Kind of trippy, right? HAHA. But it’s true.

    Listen to this episode:

    1 - If you want to remember who you are.

    2 - You need tools for putting more of yourself into your work, whether it’s creative work or not!

    3 - You are longing for a more gentle, loving and ultimately more productive relationship with yourself.
