No. 35 Childhood passions, toxic productivity, and feeling apathetic
In this episode of The Evergreen Rx, we explore the question: How do I reconnect with my creativity without falling into comparison and self-doubt? A listener writes in about feeling disconnected from the creative spark they had as a child.

How to realign with your priorities and values
The imposter trap and the true purpose of creativity
