Wherein I Find Myself Declaring “I’m Not A One Woman Show”
and other ramblings about the creative process

For the past month or so, I’ve been having honest, unedited (and scarily revealing) conversations with my friend Sandra about living a creative life.
First, I bared my soul in a conversation about copying vs. inspiration. Next I owned my jealousy and envy when it comes to blogging. Now I share my struggles with balancing it all as Sandra asks, “What is realistic when you want to create AND you have a life too? What about our dreams?”
Today on Raincoast Cottage I reveal my secrets: how I juggle my personal/professional projects with kids home all day, what I’m working on next and also offer my three pieces of advice to friends who ask how I manage it all. [Spoiler Alert: I don't always.]
Head on over to Sandra’s site to listen in. We’d love to have you add your own thoughts, struggles or solutions in the search for “balance”. We’re all in this together! You can catch an excerpt from the exchange below. See you there.
