Practical Ways To Increase Your Creative Productivity with Sam Bennett

In addition to being an actress, improviser, and best-selling author, Sam Bennett is a highly respected creative coach whose business, The Organized Artist, has inspired thousands to channel their creative urges into RESULTS.  

Sam is the author of ‘Get it Done’ From Procrastination to Creative Genius in 15 minutes a day, a wonderful book for creatives on how to be more CREATIVE, CONSISTENT, SUSTAINABLE and SANE. 

The beauty of Sam's work is that she's her number one customer - as a wildly creative but easily-unmoored creative herself, Sam created this philosophy to help herself, and by extension, she's helped so many. 

On today's show, Sam and Jen discuss:

• Why you might be a terrible judge of your own work
• How not to get stuck just because you’ve made a decision
• Performing isn’t just for actors and how acting allows Sam to use 100% of herself
• How ‘the prison of desire’ can stop you from growing and experiencing new things
• How to push through the "groan zone" that accompanies every creative project
• How and why creative productivity can boost our self-esteem
• The difference between our lives and our "lifestyle."
• The secret ingredient to knowing whether or not a creative project is "worth it."
