The One Where I Came Back From the Dark
After a month-long break from the mic, I’m back and today I’m opening up about the depression, burnout, and creative rut that took me completely out. With 1 in 5 adults facing mental health challenges and 76% of people experiencing increased holiday stress, I wanted to share what the last few weeks have really looked like for me and what helped me slowly feel like myself again.
In this episode, I talk about what it felt like to hit a wall creatively, emotionally, and physically and how medication, honest conversations, and rebuilding healthy habits helped me climb out. I get into the pressure of feeling behind, social media comparison, and the IG post that reminded me that setbacks often lead to breakthroughs.
I also share my journey out of a major creative rut, including why my old DSLR stressed me out and how finally buying a camera I love brought joy and confidence back. Sometimes the problem is not you. Sometimes it is the tools you are using.
We walk through real and practical ways to get out of a rut: starting with the bare minimum, leaning into gentle movement, improving sleep, building anchor habits, and giving yourself permission to slow down. With research showing that tiny habits are more likely to stick and movement can reduce symptoms of depression, this episode is a reminder that small steps matter.
I close with what personally helped me reconnect with myself: better sleep routines, medication, movement, opening up to trusted people, a new camera, and rebuilding joy in small and sustainable ways.
If you have been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like you are starting over again, this episode is for you. You are not behind. You are not alone. And it is never too late to begin again.
