What happens when a creative takes time off instead of pushing through burnout? After taking a two-month hiatus from creating content, I've returned with profound insights about the necessity of pausing, processing, and recalibrating before continuing to serve others.
During my break, I experienced what some call being "triggered" but what a wise friend reframed as being "activated" - receiving the blessing of learning new lessons about my energy, boundaries, and communication patterns. Rather than speaking from an unhealed wound, I chose to step back, process with trusted friends, and return only when I could speak from the scar.
This episode explores the transformative power of cultivating internal safety as a content creator. When we create from fear or scarcity, our audience calibrates to that energy - showing up with guards raised, lacking trust. But when we create from a place of genuine safety and abundance, we invite our audience to consume our content from that same open, receptive space.
For high-performing, heart-led creative women who struggle with loneliness, feeling unsafe online, analysis paralysis, and tying their worth to analytics - this message is especially for you. The audience you seek isn't waiting for perfect thumbnails or algorithm hacks; they're waiting for YOU to step fully into your authentic self.
Ready to cultivate safety from the inside out? Join me at the Empowered Podcasting Conference in Charlotte (September 26-28) for my workshop "The Regulated Creator," or access my free 30-question workbook at janaswancom/safety30. Because you deserve to experience what it feels like to openly express yourself online with no pressure, no expectations - just love and authenticity.
