For Amanda Crew, art imitates life. While she is largely known for her role as Monica Hall on the HBO series Silicon Valley, she recently sat down with me to talk about the duality between her personal life and experience playing a woman who feels torn between the life she’s created and the life she really wants.

Yet at the same time, this system of continuity also works against our wellbeing. Now more than ever, people struggle with overwhelming stress and anxiety, depression, burnout, and even chronic physical pain as a result of their day-to-day realities.

Are you having a bad day? Or was it a bad 5 minutes that you milked all day? I love this question. Because it’s so true! How often have we let something small ruin our entire day. Of course there are terrible things we all experience that are difficult to cope with, like tragedy. But that not what we’re talking about here. I’m talking about the small stuff.

Have you ever started a project and felt inspired and motivated, only to find yourself lost in the middle of your creative endeavor? You know the place I'm talking about: the messy nebulous phase of creativity in between vision and reality. It's where ideas get watered down and "shoulds" start to creep in. But here's the thing: The messy middle is where all of our best ideas are hiding — if we can just permit...
