It's not all about you.
One of the challenges of being a creator is learning how to share your progress without making every conversation about your work.
It’s easy to get caught up in the wins— landing a client, finishing a draft, hitting a streak— and want to tell the people closest to you.
But the people we love also need space for their own updates, routines, and small joys.
That balance matters.
It keeps relationships grounded in more than just productivity.
It reminds us that life is bigger than the next project, and that creativity grows best when our connections outside of work feel strong too.
