GODDAMNIT I AM FRIGGIN GROUCHY TODAY. UGH. And that is what this whole episode is ABOUT DANGIT. AGH. 

Remember how I said I was going to lean into my feelings more? Even if they were GARBAGE LIKE MY FEELINGS TODAY? WELL. FRICK. I'm fricking DOING IT. And bringing you along for the flip floppin' journey OH HECK.

If you aren't familiar with the hero's journey, basically it's like... you are the hero of your own journey. When you are working towards accomplishing a thing, you learn skills, you explore those skills, you try to figure out what the FRICK you are doing with them, and then something happens that brings everything to a grinding HAULT. And you have to do some stupid frigging deep introspective dumb work to figure out who the heck you are and why your journey is important and GAH. And then it leads to a decision which ultimately leads to the transformation of your "character" to get you to the final result of whatever you're trying to achieve.

Go watch any superhero movie, you'll see it all play out in real time in front of your eyeballs.

In fact, most stories follow this arc. 

AGGGGHHH. ANYWAY.

I am in the stupid dark night of the soul part where i'm like... "AM I EVEN GOOD AT THIS? AM I EVEN FUNNY? HAVE I LOST IT ALL DURING THIS 2 YEAR ISOLATION OR WHAT???" 

Which I really hope means that by the time I get to the next episode, I"m in the decision part of the story. Or better yet, the transformation part.

The problem is, I just have no clue what decision I need to make in order to get there. WHAT HAS TO CHANGE? Ohhhh I weep. I weep. 

Creativity... so cool, man.

Anyway. 

LOVE YOU BYE!

If you ever get stuck with your creative projects, maybe it's because you're only working on one at any given time! AHHH! MAYBE THAT'S MEEE!

In this episode I get deep with ya about wtf is going on with my comedy album this week, why I think I might have creative tunnel vision, and I have literally no solutions for this problem this week, other than to just have more than one creative project going at a time. 

I guess this is also a creative project! Right here right now!

What do you do to get unstuck?!?!?! How do you smash through creative blocks?!?! TELL MEEEE!

This week I realized that I have been resisting my creativity by FORCING MYSELF TO BE CREATIVE. What a world. WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE!

Join me on this harrowing journey of self-discovery... will I have a song for you to hear at the end of this? MAYBE! But you'll have to stay tuned to find out!

LOVE YOU BYE!
