Embracing Creativity: Celebrating 25 Episodes of The Download

In this milestone 25th episode of The Download from Wise Woman and Wordsmith, host Jill Marshall reflects on the journey of creating the podcast, which began as an experimental project with no following or advanced tech set-up. Despite modest metrics, the show has garnered around 500 listens and evolved into a platform for sharing wisdom and inspiration. Jill delves into the significance of following creative impulses, the ripple effect of one idea leading to another, and the importance of creating for the joy of it rather than for fame or success. She also touches on her personal journey which includes the interconnectedness of her writing projects and the evolution of her creative endeavours, encouraging listeners to trust their instincts and embrace the unknown in their own creative pursuits.
