Hey, it’s Kailey and Kayla from Nonsexual Soulmates, diving into the "Trust" chapter of Elizabeth Gilbert’s Big Magic.

This week we are taking a look at trusting in the creative process and letting go of our tendencies toward perfectionism. We review our own journey into stepping out on a creative venture (with this podcast) and how it has given us the confidence to dream bigger and challenge ourselves with new creative ventures we might never have dared to dream before.

What's our biggest takeaway? Gilbert's quote is the most succinct takeaway we can come up with: "Done is better than perfect."

And literally editing this episode was a testament to this sentiment when I could not, FOR THE LIFE OF ME, to get the audio and video to line up. So, I said "done is better than perfect" to myself about 50 times and hit export because sometimes life and a day job constrain your time.

So here we are. This chapter has been a good reminder to quit cherishing social media metrics and not focus on the fact that it feels like YouTube blacklisted us for some unknown reason and focus on the creative process for the joy of doing the damn thing.

Tell us about your story and your creative journey because it's great to learn from each other. If you'd like to be interviewed about your own creative practice, creative dreams, or creation schemes, drop us a comment below and we will connect.

Thanks as always for listening and we will see you next Tuesday.

In this week's episode of the Nonsexual Soulmates podcast, we dive into the theme of creativity and courage, inspired by Elizabeth Gilbert’s Big Magic.

How can we push past fear to embrace whatever creative pursuit we enjoy? How do we take fear out of the driver's seat but recognize it will probably always be a passenger and how can we still enjoy the ride?

From sharing personal experiences like starting the podcast to reflecting on the balance of courage and fear, we emphasize that creativity isn’t just about art—it’s about living curiously and authentically. You don't have to engage in one of the "classical" arts or do something highbrow- you can glue glitter on a disco ball and hang it in your bathroom, just be curious, let yourself play, and get out there.

Finally, Kailey realizes the importance of being a “yes person” to support others’ creative endeavors and the value of practice in bringing ideas to life.

Tune in for an inspiring conversation about saying yes to creativity and no to fear, plus a sneak peek at next week’s special guest interview with artist Amanda Booth!
