For a long time, I hid my challenges from my creative work.  I thought vulnerability made me less credible, less polished, less "put together". The Truth is....... People don't connect with perfection.  They connect with humanity.  Your struggles aren't roadblocks to your creativity; they are the raw material.  They are the stories that make someone feel seen.

I would tell myself, I will start " when things slowdown", "I am not prepared", or "Life is life-ing right now, I need to get myself together" Ever told yourself any of these lies....... Well here is the plot twist: The perfect moment doesn't exist. Waiting for the perfect moment only delays your growth.
