The Calm Within The Storm

Creative Coping

Listen on

Episode notes

This episode is all about coping with difficult experiences and issues through the means of creativity and artistic activity, whether that's journaling, writing poetry, creating art, composing music, building things, or more. We also discuss how to navigate periods of feeling uninspired and unmotivated and how to deal with a general lack of creativity.


I am joined by Aleksandra Zak, all the way in Poland, for our first remote session of the series! Aleksandra is a writer and has worked on novels, short stories, poetry and more.


Do you find creative coping to be a helpful strategy for you in negative situations? What difficulties do you encounter with trying to maintain your creativity? Do you have any helpful tips for others who might be struggling to find the right creative avenue for them, or are perhaps struggling with a lack of artistic inspiration?
