“breadcrumbs and allies”

Ahhhh, Andy J. Pizza is back… and just in the nick of time! I’m sure you know about Andy’s inspiring podcast, “Creative Pep Talk”… which was exactly what I needed today! HELP. ME. ANDY. Yep, we’re talking about creative slumps, being in limbo, feeling like a deer in headlights … and then following the breadcrumbs (or chip crumbs) back to our creative paths. Seriously, this was the therapy session I’ve been needing. I hope you get as much out of this episode as I did… you might want to get yourself some pizza-flavored chips to really duplicate the bliss I felt. Listen right up there, or subscribe on Apple Podcasts and/or Spotify.

Now, as I said, this discussion was more like therapy, but Andy and I did manage to talk about some artists that we both love to look at when we’re in a creative slump! Here are my three picks:

    Sigh, this is exactly what I needed to hear! Nice to know I’m not the only one going through the post-covid anxiety/creative slump/wheel spin! Thank you so much for this and all the great little tips 🙂

    Oooo I loved this Danielle. That bit about having to let yourself play sometimes. And I totally do that thing where I immediately start thinking about how ‘useful’ playing is and often don’t let myself do it. Really appreciate Andy’s advice and your lovely podcast 🙂
