So many of us struggle with procrastination. There are many causes of procrastination—fear of failure, fear of success, perfectionism, comparison, exhaustion, and overwhelm, just to name a few. We often need rest, but procrastination isn't the same--and tends to feed your inner critic, while eroding your motivation and productivity.

"No thanks. I’m going to play today."

This episode is a little different.

If you feel exhausted, demoralized, or like a "ghost of your old self," you aren't broken—you are a human being responding to a global situation that feels less stable every day. In this episode, I explore why creative rebellion is a vital act of resistance. This isn't about being productive or making a statement; it’s about reminding yourself that you are still alive.

I’m Nancy Norbeck, Messy Muse Mentor, and I help exhausted perfectionists find gentle, playful ways to spark expression again. This episode is a call to reclaim your aliveness through small, five-minute acts of "useless" play that keep your head above water.

What you can expect from this episode (and this show):

• 🤦🏻‍♂️ No Pressure: I’ll never tell you to force productivity through resistance.
• 🤷🏻‍♂️ No Bypassing: We won't ignore reality or live in denial; we reconnect with the parts of reality the headlines miss.
• 😁 No "Shoulds": This is a sanctuary, not a school. There are no requirements to be an "artist" or produce "good" art.

I discuss the logic of demoralization and why staying connected to your joy makes you harder to control. If you’ve been yearning for a space to just be without the pressure to perform, this conversation is for you.

Ready to join the rebellion?

If this episode resonated with you, please subscribe so you never miss a dose of creative permission.

Take Action: If you need a physical space of sanctuary right now, I invite you to join our free Follow Your Curiosity Creativity Circle this Saturday at 3:00 PM Eastern. It’s an online, low-to-no pressure space where you can draw, daydream, or simply exist in a creative community.

If you’ve been feeling demoralized by the 24-hour news cycle and the weight of the world, you aren't alone and you aren't broken. In this video, we explore why creating a safe haven for yourself isn’t about denial or being "unproductive"—it’s about reclaiming the aliveness you need to keep going.

Most advice tells you to "stay informed" until you're exhausted or "just crush it" despite the chaos. On this podcast, I provide a sanctuary for messy, joyful creativity for people who are tired of the pressure to perform when the world feels like it’s burning.

My Promise to You:

• 🤦🏻‍♂️ I’ll never tell you to force productivity through resistance.
• 🤷🏻‍♂️ I won’t ask you to ignore your intuition or reality to fit an ideal.
• 😁 I will never imply you are "broken" because you need a break.

What we’re exploring today:

• The News Cycle Cost: Why it’s okay to say "no" to the constant beating at your attention.
• Creativity as Survival: Why awe, wonder, and beauty are the things that make being here worthwhile.
• Finding Five Minutes: How to give yourself permission to pull back and reconnect with yourself.

You don't have to earn your own kindness. This episode is a look at why radical self-compassion is the creative lifestyle shift your exhaustion has been asking for.

If you’ve been treating self care like a "treat" for good behavior rather than a necessity for your wellbeing, you aren't alone and you aren't broken. In this episode, I explore why radical kindness is a vital act of resistance for exhausted perfectionists struggling with the pressure to perform.

Most mental health and self-help advice tells you to "just crush it" or optimize your way out of burnout. But on this podcast, I provide a sanctuary for messy, joyful creativity that focuses on your aliveness, not your productivity.

My Promise to You:
• 🤦🏻‍♂️ I’ll never tell you that you need to be "productive" to deserve a break.
• 🤷🏻‍♂️ I won't ignore the systemic pressures that make self-compassion feel like a luxury.
• 😁 I will never treat your need for rest as a failure of discipline.

What we’re exploring today:
• The Reward Trap: Why we think we have to "earn" our own kindness.
• Creative Resilience: How practicing kindness as a life force changes your creative process.
• Finding Five Minutes: Small, gentle ways to improve your well-being without the pressure to be perfect.

“I am here to help people get their power back. I don’t want people’s power.”

Whether you know it or not, you have immense creative and personal power. But in a society that often tries to take that power away—or tells you that you should give your power to a "guru"—it’s easy to feel invisible in your own life.

In this video, I explore why creativity is actually the fastest path back to yourself. While traditional tools in psychology and psychotherapy are valuable for understanding our past, messy and joyful creativity focuses on your aliveness in the present. This channel is a sanctuary for those who want to reclaim their agency without the pressure of productivity or performance.

My Promise to You:

• 🤦🏻‍♂️ I’ll never tell you that you are "broken" or need to be "optimized".

• 🤷🏻‍♂️ I won’t ask you to give your power to a "guru" or follow a rigid system.

• 😁 I will never prioritize a "crush it" mentality over your need for a safe haven.

What we’re exploring in this episode:

• The Power Illusion: Why "power-over" is usually an illusion and how to tap into "power-with" instead.

• The Political is Personal: Navigating a world where authoritarianism and "guru culture" try to claim your agency.

• Creativity as Self-Relationship: Why playing with colors or words is a radical act of reclaiming your own decisions.

• Reclaiming Your Aliveness: How to use your creative power to make a difference in your community.

Sound good? If this resonates, subscribe to join our rebellion against the "shoulds." And if you want a physical sanctuary to practice this way of being, join us for our next free Creativity Circle.

In Western culture, we don't often think of creativity as something controlled, but the truth is, there's a place for chaos and control in our creative process. In this slightly-longer-than-usual pep talk, I give a couple examples of the push-pull of chaos and control, and how they can both be helpful—and detrimental—to our creative work, and why it's worth experimenting with a little more of one if you're used to working primarily with the other.

I'm currently in the home stretch of putting together my upcoming Make Bad Art group program, which will be starting in about a month. Make Bad Art is the anti-MBA, a safe place to come unlearn all those things you're taught you have to have as an "adult" (stress, perfection, conformity) so you can reclaim the inner wild, curious, creative kid who's always been inside you±the one who knows how to play, invent, have fun, and live with abandon and joy. It's a playground for the liberation of your inner artist AND your authentic self, and the effects will go beyond the class container.

I'll be posting more very soon at my newsletter, The Spark, so subscribe to get the details as soon as they're available! We'd love to have you! 

What happens when you make bad art? Sometimes you get really good art by accident! Here's a real-life story of a time when that happened to Doctor Who writer Steven Moffat, and why you should consider Making Bad Art yourself.

Welcome to the first in a series of creative pep talks—topics to help you get and stay unstuck in your creative process (aka your life). In this inaugural pep talk, I share my plan for these mini-episodes and tackle the age-old question of just who is creative—and why a lot of people believe they're not.

These episodes will come out every other week, alternating with my regular interview episodes (those aren't going anywhere!). I hope you enjoy them.

Welcome back for Creative Pep Talk #3! This week, we're delving into the deep, dark world of perfectionism. This is an overview of the evils of perfectionism, because to truly explore it would take more than 8 minutes, but I hope it'll get you thinking about how you fall into this trap, and what you might want to do differently to keep yourself out of perfectionism's clutches so you can enjoy your creative adventures instead of letting them torment you—because where's the fun in that?

Following on from last time, here are some thoughts on how to give feedback. Why is this important? For one, you really don't want to be the person who stops someone else's creative process. Just as importantly, though, you don't want to stymie yours! It really is THAT important.

Failure visits us all—and I've been thinking about it a lot lately. Failing doesn't have to be the end, and it definitely doesn't reflect our worth. It's actually a really important part of the creative process (and of growing/learning in general), so maybe we should start embracing it rather than fearing it.

Continuing from last time: more on comparison, and how it's actually a way to reject ourselves, even if we don't know it. Perfectionism factors into that process, too, creating an ugly soup of not-good-enoughness. The good news: you CAN do something about it. Details within!
