How to Be Creative is a self-paced, pre-recorded workshop designed to help you shift out of perfectionism, fear, and creative paralysis—and into movement, curiosity, and joyful mess-making. Whether you're just getting started or returning to creativity after a long break, this course is your invitation to start where you are, with what you have.
