In this chat with Alison from @LittleCocoStudio, I’m checking in on The Artist’s Way at the halfway point—weeks 1 through 6. We reflect on how the process feels once you’re past the initial excitement and into the real, day-to-day rhythm of showing up for yourself creatively. It’s very much a “what’s working, what’s hard, and what’s surprising us” kind of conversation, and I share the mindset shifts that start to click when you stick with the program for a few weeks. And yes… we also talk a lot about stationery, because of course we do. We weave in how journaling and analog tools can support the Artist’s Way journey—especially when you’re trying to build a consistent practice that feels cozy instead of stressful. If you’re doing the program (or thinking about starting), this is a grounded, halfway-through perspective: real talk, creative check-in energy, and plenty of pen-and-paper enthusiasm along the way.
