Deep dives
Reasons for Getting Stuck
Getting stuck in life often occurs because we cling to the familiar, even when it's not beneficial. Fears and anxieties associated with progressing in creative endeavors can hold us back. Lack of resources, such as time, funds, or opportunities, can also contribute to feeling stuck. Dependence on others, especially partners, can block personal growth. Uncertainty about the future and a desire to maintain comfort and stability further contribute to feeling stuck.
