This week I'm diving into that frustrating feeling we all know too well: doing, honestly, way too much while getting absolutely nowhere. (Cue that Great British Bake Off meme of the woman frantically running around the kitchen accomplishing precisely nothing.)

I explore the concept of "ruthless clarity" — that magical state where you actually know what you're doing and why — versus what I call "chicken without a head syndrome" where you're making reels! Guest starring on podcasts! Starting seventeen newsletters! And still feeling like you're treading water.

You'll hear about Mozart's creative process (yes, really), the difference between panic-driven busy work and following what I call "cosmic doorknobs" — those delicious breadcrumb trails the universe leaves for you when you're quiet enough to notice them.

I also take an unexpected side road into my habit of blocking annoying influencers (life's too short lol), and why forcing all your interests to fit under your "personal brand" is the fastest way to suffocate your actual genius.

Whether you're currently drowning in shiny object syndrome or just wondering why your fifteen simultaneous projects aren't yielding results, this episode offers a witchy middle path: do less, but with ruthless clarity.

Thoughts on your own cosmic doorknobs? Drop them in the comments!
