Loved this interview 👏🏼

You’re both so inspiring, and yet you each have such different approaches and capacities to me.

I’m thankfully, mostly, past comparing and finding myself ‘less-than’, instead I cherry pick the little pieces, little permission slips that resonate and expand my own approach.

I love how Christin speaks about outlining a piece while she might be cleaning up crumbs etc. I think I’ve been overly boundaried with my thoughts, overly segmenting ‘this is not my writing time, therefore I can’t think about writing’ which of course puts a lot more pressure on the time I do have carved out to write.

So I’m keen to let the lines blur a little more - not block ideas or thoughts so much when I’m with my daughter, and watch out for the guilt monster that I’m ‘not being present enough’

I also MUST write to music. Ludovico Einaudi if I’m feeling blocked, he really moves me into my heart. And Binaural Beats for focus when I want something calm and steady so I stay in the zone. I can’t write to anything with lyrics, it’s way overstimulating for me!

Hey Sarina, lovely to hear from you.

I'm intrigued by your thoughts on Christin and I having different approaches and capacities.

Hooray for pushing past that less-than BS (we never feel good on that treadmill) - and I am, like you someone that plucks what feels good to my soul and leaves what isn't for me 💖

The image of clearing crumbs while crafting a piece is evocative. I love it too. And blurring lines has treasures in it. I wonder what you'd discover if you carried your guilt monster, opened a drawer and tucked it up safe while you got on with yourself and your hearts dreams.

I'm going to listen to the music you mentioned, thanks so much! xx
