Balancing Creativity and Presence

The speaker, Jakob, discusses his dilemma of balancing his creative work as a filmmaker with staying present and grounded in his body.

However, the speaker acknowledges the importance of staying present and in touch with his body, as it allows him to find inspiration and creativity that is aligned with his true self.
