Welcome to Another Episode of the Women in the Middle Podcast
Today’s episode is about giving yourself permission to play with creativity in midlife because it can be self-care in disguise.
It’s quite common to regret not allowing yourself to be happy. Nobody wants regrets in life. Having increased awareness about your thoughts related to what makes you happy and how creativity can help your happiness is important.
It’s also important to take care of yourself. Self-care is one of those things that we all like to talk about, but prioritizing it can be challenging.
On today’s show, we consider the idea that being more creative can be important for your self-care. When you appreciate the benefits of creativity, it’s easier to embrace the concept. But you have to challenge your mindset about creativity, slow down and be less concerned about perfection and what you think is productive. Are you up for the creative challenge?
