Building consistency and creating with hope

A conversation with poet Edward Holmes

In Season 2, Episode 10, we’re talking to poet Edward Holmes about creating with hope.

We had an encouraging conversation about healing from burnout, balancing abiding with productivity, and how to keep creating even in the hard seasons. Edward is such a light, and I’m so excited for all you’ll receive from this episode.

So in this episode we’re exploring:

• Practical ways to be more productive and build creative consistency.

• How to find and lean on community for hope and endurance.

• How to shift your metrics of creative success to find more joy and purpose.

I hope this episode encourages you to keep living out your creative calling and leaning on Jesus and community to help you thrive in it.
