Hey Creator,

Ever sat staring at your to-do list, paralyzed? You know what you should be doing — posting, recording, writing — yet, you scroll, second-guess, and soon the day’s gone.

This silent momentum killer is called analysis paralysis. It’s not laziness; it’s overwhelm. And it chips away at your confidence until you wonder if you’re even cut out for this.

But here’s the good news: you’re one checklist away from breaking free.

In this week’s episode of Creators That Crush, I share the exact 5-question checklist I used to get unstuck when I found myself spiraling — and I bet it’ll work for you too. No fluff, no guru nonsense — just simple, punk rock, creator-friendly steps to help you make faster, more confident decisions.

Imagine looking at your project list and instantly knowing what to tackle next. Imagine feeling momentum again.

Let’s get you back in motion.

Shawn

When obligation crushes your art, try this

Hey Creator, You didn’t become a creator just to check boxes and keep up with obligations. But over time, that’s exactly what starts to happen. You start out fired up by creative ideas… and end up stuck fulfilling content calendars, client demands, and self-imposed routines. You know the spark is still in there, but it feels buried under the weight of everything you “have” to do. That’s the ten...
