When Creativity Goes Silent: How to Keep Showing Up When Nothing's Flowing

 

Episode Highlights:

  • What to do when you're ready to create... and your brain goes completely quiet

  • Why silence doesn’t mean something’s wrong—it means your mind might need space

  • How to tell the difference between a pause and a problem

  • Why creativity comes in seasons—and how to stop panicking in the low ones

  • The trap of thinking everything you create has to be deeply profound

  • Why consistency matters more than constant inspiration

Kim's 3 Quick Tips to Reignite Creativity:

  1. The Obvious Dump:
    Write down everything around you, no matter how random or “dumb” it seems—spark creativity by naming the obvious.

  2. Ask a Lazy Question:
    What’s something you could talk about for 5 minutes without prep? Use that to get your brain moving in anydirection.

  3. Five-Minute Messy Creation Time:
    Set a timer and give yourself permission to make something bad on purpose. Let it be cringe. Let it be chaotic. Let it be honest.
