E325 | Battling Inner Demons: How to Work Out of a Creative Funk

The Art Of Coaching

Struggling with your work? Feel like you’re not hitting the mark? You’re not alone. Today’s chat dives deep into what it feels like when nothing seems to work and how to find your way out.

In Dr. Seuss’s book “Oh, the Place You’ll Go!”, he writes “And when you're in a Slump,

you're not in for much fun. Un-slumping yourself is not easily done.” We’ve ALL been there and no one or nothing can pull you out. It’s an inner struggle that we all go through and must conquer, and to be honest we don’t really have a choice.

In this episode we cover:

• Why some common advice just doesn’t help and what to look out for instead
• Tips on how to step back and see your work differently, gaining new insights that matter
• Simple strategies to better understand your audience, ensuring your work resonates
• How to tackle self doubt head-on, paving the way for more authentic and satisfying work

It's hard to get out of your own head if you never get a chance to talk out some of the issues or problems you're struggling with. For this exact reason, we offer 1-on-1 Art of Coaching virtual mentoring. Coaches need coaches too, and that's the value we can provide to you if you let us.
