Lauren, that so-called phase you are experiencing and writing about is not a phase. It’s evolution. Your personal evolution and, got to tell you, it continues. There’s no end period, only a continuation in perhaps different phases. You’re fortunate to feel such restless confusion, a type of creativity itself. I will keep an eye on you as you move through these strange and weirdly complex and frustrating phases.
I'm in a phase not unlike yours and have to remind myself to sit on my hands every once in a while. It's jarring to suddenly have a whole day in front of you. But I know you, and I know you deserve a break to be with your kids, to regroup and to be onto the next thing.
I know, isn’t that crazy?! It would be a lot easier to just lean into my tendency to go, go, go but I am going to force myself, if even for a short time, to practice staying still! ❤️

Thank you Luisita, I love framing it as creativity and agree that underneath it all it definitely is.

I am still learning this (as I take two freelance roles oops)
