When I think back to earlier this summer, I recall feeling stuck creatively. I felt like I was a total mess. I felt lost, unmotivated & I felt like I was really struggling.

The first half of this summer felt super intense, emotionally. I’ve spent most of it completely twisted up and totally riddled with anxiety, uncertainty and paralyzing self-doubt. I’ve been doubting everything I’ve been doing, everything I’ve been writing–whether anyone out there cares or is even listening at all.
