Chaos and Creativity
The 12 Days of Christmas, Creative Edition
We’ve made it to our last episode of the year and the season one finale.
To close things out, Lou and Kimi are sharing 12 things they’ve been loving lately. These are things that have inspired them, helped them slow down, or simply made life a little better as creatives.
This is our version of the 12 Days of Christmas. No endorsements, no sponsors. Just books, shows, tools, and ideas we genuinely enjoy.
We’re talking about what we’re reading, watching, and adding into our lives as we head into a new year.
