The Key to Staying Creative Beyond Quarantine

May 20, 2020

Remember when creating consistently felt like a pipe dream for so many of us with relentlessly busy lives?

And then, COVID-19 happened. Beginning in March, many of us started baking bread, dusting off our piano, and painting for the first time in ages.

Stay-at-home orders forced us to dabble in new ways, and we found that even though we missed our friends and family, we really liked having time to express ourselves.

So: What’s next?

What will become of the creative renaissance that has blossomed in our lives post-pandemic? How can we hold on to the creative practices we cultivated while in quarantine—or finally push past self-doubt to get started?

On episode 28 of She Made It, Clara and I are coming to you from our closets to share a sneak peek of what we’ve been creating during quarantine and all of our best tips for embracing (and maintaining) your creativity in this unique era we’re living through.

Tune in to hear:
