We all experience periods of low energy and motivation; but as Chaotic Creatives, our ideas and goals never stop calling to us. Rachael and Lauren talk about the necessity of giving ourselves grace when we’re feeling drained. They outline some actionable approaches that might help us advance towards our passions even when we aren’t feeling up to the task.
