Episode 67: Why We Get In the Way of Our Creativity and Self Care with Maggie Frank Hsu

Hello, hi! Today's episode features one of my favourite people on the internet, Maggie Frank Hsu, writer, book coach and editor and my favourite Big Sister Energy account @maggiefrankhsu. 

Maggie and I deeeeep dive into the subject of creativity and we stumble on a parallel conversation about self care. Is creativity self-care? Why is it so hard to just get started? What are we hiding from when we indulge in face masks and ice coffee instead of the real things that nurture our identities and sense of well being? I know you'll love Maggie's FRANK (see what I did there) point of view and refreshing perspective.

Maggie hosts a weekly *free* writing group called Time to Write that I have loved being a part of since she launched earlier this year - if you're interested in Time to Write make sure you connect with Maggie's instagram bio for the link to join! It's welcoming, serene and low barrier entry. All you have to do is make the "time". 

We also touch on Maggie's book "Be About Something" that I credit with being a big part of why I started my podcast in the first place. It's another great way to benefit from Maggie's wisdom and coaching - in book form!
