What’s stopping your creativity from getting real results?


It's not what you think.

Hey Reader

You’re not short on ideas.
You’re not lacking passion.
You’re not lazy.

But still, your creative work isn’t where you want it to be.

Maybe you’re stuck starting and stopping.
Maybe you're scattered, always busy but never moving forward.
Maybe you're not sure what “results” even look like anymore.

This isn’t a discipline issue. It’s a clarity and support issue.
Because when you're on your own, it’s easy to spin in circles.

But imagine this:

  • You show up consistently, even on the hard days.
  • You know what you're building and why it matters.
  • You’re not just dreaming, you’re delivering.

Whether that means finally publishing your book, launching that product, building your audience, or just reclaiming your creative identity again… you can get there.

That’s what the Daily Creative Habit is built for.

It’s not about forcing creativity.
It’s about creating a rhythm that helps you finish what you start, feel proud of what you make, and stop second-guessing yourself.

If you're ready to do more than dabble and drift...
Let’s work together.

You’re not broken.

You’re just one good habit away from momentum.

Tag. You're it. Hey Reader Remember when you were a kid, and every day felt like a big experiment? You didn’t overthink things. You just played, built, destroyed, and rebuilt until you made something awesome—or at least had fun trying. Somewhere along the way, we were told to get serious. (Insert eye-roll here.) Here’s the thing: serious is overrated. Experimentation and play are the keys to creative growth. In my book, Make Fun A Habit, I talk about how embracing a playful mindset doesn’t...

But I let go. Hey Reader I quietly hit publish on something that’s been with me for a long time. Blue: A Story of Letting Go is now available. It’s a small book. But it holds something big.I first wrote the words three years ago and tucked them away in the Notes app on my phone. I wasn’t sure if anyone else would ever read them. It started as something personal. A quiet reminder to myself about love, loss, and the courage it takes to let go of what we wish we could keep. Bringing it to life...

(and Making Your Own) Hey Reader You ever have one of those moments where you realize—Wow, I’m really bad at this? Yeah, me too. Hand-drawn typography was my kryptonite in art school. We had to recreate classic typefaces (Baskerville, Caslon, Helvetica—all the fancy fonts), by hand. With rulers, ink, and precision so tight it made my brain hurt (yes, making me feel like a dinosaur as this was pre-computer aided design). And guess what? I sucked at it. Smudges, spills, shaky lines—I was a...
