E166. Maintaining Motivation for Creative Work in Challenging Seasons
From Stepping Off Now: Support for Neurodivergent Creatives by Kendra Patterson

About this episode
Kendra discusses maintaining motivation for creative work during challenging seasonal conditions.
Here in Florida our challenging season is summer--it's both broiling hot and rainy. My backyard turns into a literal swamp. It can be hard to maintain motivation for our creative work when the weather and climate are so uncomfortable. Maybe in your area it's winter that's the challenging season. If you struggle to keep up your momentum during these times, I have some suggestions on how to handle your creative work in ways that can create motivation.
