Is Your Comfort Zone Holding You Back?

Imagine you’re gazing out at the vast expanse of possibility before you. On one side lies the safety of the familiar, and on the other, the allure of growth and the uncertainty that comes with chasing your dreams. What would you choose—honestly? It's a decision we’re faced with every day, in both big and small ways. Do we play it safe, sticking to the well-trodden path, or do we venture into uncharted territory, risking failure... read more ›

Why Chasing More Is Leaving Us Empty

An illustration of a grass field looking. In the distance is a beach. There is a sense of longing.

On paper. Something felt missing, even though her longtime dream of living independently in the Big Apple had been achieved. She recalls being miserable without a clear idea of why. Eventually, ignoring the problem took its toll. Her body began... read more ›

Surprising Secret to Boosting Productivity

In the midst of a creative marathon, the sprint towards the finish line can feel all-consuming. For me, that's been the reality as I hammer out the final chapters of my next book. Picture it: weeks of rewrites, a direction that felt "off" until it was nearly scrapped and started anew. It's a doozy of a process, one that demands the lion's share of my attention and energy as I push to wrap things up... read more ›

The Dark Night of the Soul: A Journey to Self-Discovery with Amanda Crew

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. It’s a thriller, Amanda tells me, but the underlying turmoil her character faces is something she can relate... read more ›

Making Art for Art’s Sake

I’m a huge believer in making art for art’s sake. Taking photos that no one is going to pay you for. Shooting films that aren’t commissioned or funded. Writing words that the world may never read. I’ve said before that doing and making always trumps talking about it, but there’s also a difference between the doing and making that pays the bills and the doing and making that brings joy, that hones craft, lights creative... read more ›
