Watch the YouTube episode here: How To Move Past Artist Block And Be Inspired Again - Ep 016
Ros and Laura dive into the reality of artist block—what it is, why it happens, and how to work through it without judgment. Laura opens up about her personal journey with a creative block linked to physical illness and depression, while Ros explores the psychological roadblocks artists often place on themselves, including perfectionism, fear of failure, and burnout.
This honest conversation is full of actionable tips for reigniting your creative spark. From simplifying your materials and processes to habit stacking and using journaling as a tool for self-reflection, we walk you through how to gently move through a creative rut and re-discover the joy in your art practice.
Whether you're recovering from burnout or just feeling creatively “off,” these insights will help you rebuild your momentum and reconnect with your art on your own terms.
