Episode 5. Have we forgotten how to be creative?

Creativity is something many of us build our careers and lives around, yet somewhere between deadlines, responsibilities and the constant noise of everyday life, it can become harder to access, often without us even realising. In this episode, we explore the subtle signs you might be creatively stuck, why inspiration can feel harder to find, and how constant consumption can leave little room for original ideas to surface. We also discuss the surprising role boredom plays in creativity and why making space to do less might actually help you create more. A conversation for anyone who feels a little flat, uninspired, or disconnected from the thing they once loved doing. When was the last time you created something just because you wanted to?

But over time, the physical side of the job can start to catch up.We talk honestly about pushing through, ignoring early signs, and why many of us only start thinking about our bodies later on.

Episode 2. Ashleigh Hodges, Ambition, burnout and knowing when to speak up and step back

In this episode, we talk with Asleigh Hodges about experiences that many people quietly hold within the creative industries. Feeling out of place in rooms you’ve worked hard to be in. Wondering whether to speak up or stay quiet. Pushing yourself to reach goals, only to feel completely drained once you get there. Ashleigh shares honest reflections on navigating intimidating environments, finding her voice, and being open about mental health and burnout. We talk about recognising patterns of overworking, learning when to step back, and understanding that ambition doesn’t have to come at the expense of your wellbeing. This is a conversation about confidence, boundaries, and redefining success in a way that feels sustainable.

Episode 1. Do you live in the moment? with Siobhan and Ollie

As creatives, we often find ourselves constantly looking ahead, thinking about the next idea, the next project, or the next stage of our careers.  In this episode, we discuss ageing, perspective, and the subtle pressure to feel further along than we actually are. In creative careers, time can start to feel like a race, and it’s easy to overlook what is working for us right now while fixating on what’s to come.  We explore the notion that one day we might wish we could return to this stage of life, filled with energy, brimming with ideas, and navigating busy lives that we sometimes rush through.  This isn’t about stopping the ageing process or forcing ourselves to feel grateful. It’s about recognising what we already have without losing our ambition and understanding that feeling restless doesn’t always mean something needs to change.  If you’ve ever felt like life is moving too quickly and you’re struggling to keep up, this conversation is for you.
