Do you feel more inspired in certain seasons? You’re not alone. This week, we dive into how creativity mirrors nature’s cycles—blooming, resting, gathering, and letting go. From painting spring skies to cozy winter crafts, Briana and Tasha share how tuning into these natural shifts can bring more joy, grace, and flow to your creative life.

Peace isn’t the absence of hard things; it’s how we show up inside them. We share our imperfect return from vacation, why community shifts can rattle creativity, and what helps us keep going: slow growth, aligned intention, and tiny, consistent acts. You’ll leave with listener-friendly tools—an easy “Pinterest scavenger hunt,” print-your-mood-board ideas, and ways to create with your people so it nourishes you and deepens connection. For artists, writers, parents, and anyone rebuilding a creative rhythm.

What if the first step isn’t “make something,” but “help your body exhale”? We trace how rest made color choices easy again, how journaling became possible by starting with the truest sentence, and how comparison loses power when your goal is honest delight.
This episode offers practical takeaways—breath and visualization cues, gratitude pages, picking the right medium for your current state, and daily micro-rituals—to help you return to presence, create with ease, and show up for the people you love with more warmth and bandwidth.

This episode holds a split screen: one vacation loosens the grip of stress until wonder returns—clouds, flowers, small glimmers that say, “create again.” The other vacation stirs old habits of shrinking and people-pleasing… and still, creativity insists. We talk about claiming a pocket of solitude, painting anyway, and how making—even as an “escape”—can be a faithful first step toward voicing what’s true.

We explore the link between nervous-system safety and creative flow, how revisiting childhood delight can re-align a practice, and why gentle accountability (these weekly check-ins) helps us notice what’s actually happening inside. If you’ve ever felt both called to create and tempted to disappear, this one’s for you. What helps you feel safe enough to try? Tell us on Instagram or in the comments—we’d love to hear.

After weeks of feeling stuck, something shifted. Through play, poetry, and reflection, we remembered that fear isn’t a stop sign—it’s an invitation to listen. In this heartwarming conversation, we talk about the tender process of returning to creativity with compassion and curiosity. From painting mugs with our kids to writing morning pages and dreaming in color again, we explore how childlike wonder, rest, and imagination can rekindle the spark within. This is an episode about grace in the in-between—about honoring the quiet seasons and trusting that even in stillness, your light is never lost.

Ever hit a creative slump and wonder where your joy went? In this episode, we retrace our steps—back to library aisles, childhood wonder, and the playful beginnings of our friendship—to rediscover why we create at all. We talk about reconnecting with the feelings behind your art, gentle nervous-system resets, and finding your way back to delight.

This week, we explore what happens when creativity meets big emotions—especially anger. Can art still bring peace when our hearts feel heavy? After weeks of busyness and big feelings, this episode is an invitation to pause and return to center. We talk about tracking our emotions, rediscovering what feels nourishing, and checking in with ourselves as part of the creative process. Through conversation, humor, and honesty, we remember that art—and life—both flow best when we come back to the basics: curiosity, joy, and care for ourselves.

At 18 weeks into this experiment, we’re realizing the importance of gentleness and balance. From candy bouquets to fish-themed surprises, from launch deadlines to pastel sketches squeezed into the edges of the week, creativity took many forms—but not all of them felt nourishing. We reflect on what happens when output starts to feel heavy, how accountability can help us keep showing up, and why returning to joy, play, and delight matters for long-term creative thriving. It’s an invitation to notice not just what you create, but how it makes you feel, and to allow language, awareness, and balance to guide you back to a more sustainable rhythm.

Thank you so much for listening.
