Every creative hits seasons where the path feels messy, confusing, or slow. You’re adjusting to a new team, picking up a new tool, rebuilding your portfolio, or grinding through a project that feels never-ending.

Remember, growth shows up in small shifts, new ideas, sharper instincts, better craft.

Never try to convince a loud mind. Do this instead...

Get out of your head and into your body. 🧠 👉🏾 🧘🏾‍♀️

✅ Take a few slow, deep breaths.
✅ Go for a walk or stretch.
✅ Do a quick workout ... anything to move.
✅ Call a mentor or a friend who helps you feel grounded.

#MentalHealthAwareness

Every creative hits resistance. I know I do often.

When the work feels off, don’t fight it. Do this instead:

✅ Step back and breathe. Clarity comes in stillness.
✅ Follow the mistake; it might lead to something better.
✅ Remember, flow isn’t control, it’s trust.

Want to develop greater emotional awareness?

The first step is learning to pause and listen.

When emotions run high and overwhelm sets in, don’t push them away.

Listen to what they’re trying to tell you. 🦻

Designers are my superheroes!

This is exactly what it’s like bringing in a graphic designer after a project’s been on fire for weeks.

No copy.
No brief.
No strategy.
Just vibes and a deadline.
And somehow… they still deliver.

Graphic designers…you’re the real ones. 🫡

Darwin (kind of) said: It’s not the strongest or smartest who survive, but those who adapt.

As designers, that’s the truth.

Let go of old ways. Stay curious. Take feedback.

Adaptability isn’t optional. It’s the job.
