Sit With That Feeling

Feel stuck?

Here’s the trick: stop running from your emotions.

In creative work (and life), emotions can feel like uninvited guests - stress, frustration, self-doubt.

The knee-jerk reaction?

Distract, suppress, or power through.
But here’s the secret: when you actually sit with your emotions, they lose their grip on you.

Instead of pushing them away, give them space.
Notice the tension, the discomfort, the fear. Let them be.

Because emotions are like waves - they rise, peak, and then pass.
And when you sit still long enough, you start to hear what they’re trying to teach you.

That frustration? It could be a boundary you need to set.
That anxiety? It might be calling for a new direction.

It’s not weakness - it’s wisdom.
Pausing to feel is how we process, grow, and make decisions that actually stick.

Creative pros, your best work comes from self-awareness, not stuffing your feelings into the ‘later’ pile.
