If you've faced creative failure, despair, or you feel like you're facing insurmountable cynicism, it may feel exhausting and impossible to create. Or even worse, it may feel pointless. And trust me, we get it. BUT, there are still a million reasons why the beautiful act of creation is often our way out, and we discuss those reasons today.
