TODAY'S EPISODE

We’ve been sold a lie: that creativity is a goal, something you reach if you hustle hard enough, suffer long enough, sacrifice deep enough.

But here’s the truth: that path doesn’t just fail you — it erodes life itself.

This episode is about breaking free from the outcome-obsessed culture that keeps us trapped on the treadmill of productivity, and rediscovering creativity as a way of living — something to embody, nurture, and expand every single day.

Whether you’re building a project, chasing a dream, or simply trying to reconnect with joy in the process, this episode is about choosing immersion over obsession — and reclaiming your creativity as part of life itself.

What's Inside:

  • 🌀 Why obsession kills creativity — and immersion sustains it
  • How chasing goals too hard makes life itself vanish
  • ❤️ Why joy, love, and connection are fuel for breakthroughs
  • 🌈 How to stop running after the rainbow and actually live under it
  • 🔥 Why creativity isn’t a goal — it’s a way of being alive

I'm your host, Jim. If you're ready, then let's dive in!
