1KHO 161: Untangling Self-Worth from Productivity: Igniting Play and Creativity in Motherhood | Ashlee Gadd, Create Anyway

Welcome talented author and photographer, Ashlee Gadd! 

In this episode, Ashlee reminds us that our journey through motherhood has the power to ignite and nourish our creativity. Ashlee reveals how embracing the blessings and inspirations of motherhood can fuel our creative endeavors, enriching both our lives and those around us.

With an emphasis on the importance of play, Ashlee reminds us that our children innately understand the value of embracing creativity without seeking permission. Through their example, she encourages us to reconnect with our own sense of playfulness, unleashing the inner child that often gets buried beneath the responsibilities of adulthood.

Another significant aspect explored in this episode is the power of invitation. Ashlee reveals that all friendships begin with a simple invitation, and the same principle applies to creativity. She emphasizes that it's always easier to invite someone or ourselves into a creative pursuit rather than passively waiting to be invited. By actively seeking opportunities to engage in creative endeavors, we empower ourselves to explore new territories and build meaningful connections.

Tune in to this remarkable episode as Ashlee Gadd opens our hearts and minds to the transformative power of embracing both motherhood and creativity. Prepare to be moved as she challenges conventional beliefs, offering a refreshing perspective that will inspire you to "Create Anyway" and embark on a lifelong journey of self-expression and joy. Remember, there's always time to play, and your creativity deserves the spotlight it craves.
