Hey Friends, Welcome back to Season 4 of the Creative Force Podcast! I am so excited to be back, and I am kicking things off by talking about something that was a huge part of my 2025 - Change. Honestly, it's part of the reason I took such a long break between seasons!

Last year, brought a lot of unexpected transitions for me, including multiple moves, and in this episode I talk aboutthe lessons I learned (and wish I knew sooner) on how to handle change well. If you're in a season of transition right now, or you can feel one coming, this one is for you.
