Why do we wait for permission to enjoy our lives?

In this episode, we explore the invisible permission many of us are still waiting for—permission to slow down, to rest, to create, and to enjoy things that don’t look productive on the surface.

This conversation looks at how creativity gets postponed in adulthood, why joy often feels like something we have to earn, and how waiting for approval quietly pulls us away from what makes life feel full.

We talk about:

• Why adults struggle to give themselves permission

• How productivity becomes tied to self-worth

• Why creativity and rest often feel “undeserved”

• The difference between responsibility and self-denial

• How to begin creating again without justification

This episode is for artists, creatives, and anyone who feels the pull to create but keeps waiting for the right time, the right conditions, or the right approval.

You don’t need permission to feel alive.
You need practice.

Life, Art & the Space Between is a reflective podcast about creativity, inspiration, and what it means to live honestly in the middle of real life.

Through solo episodes and quiet conversations, this channel explores how art and life are meant to move together—not as separate things, but as a shared rhythm. We talk about creativity, fear of judgment, permission, timing, inspiration, rest, and the seasons of becoming that often go unseen.

This podcast isn’t about hustle, perfection, or turning creativity into content.
It’s about slowing down, paying attention, and making room for what makes life feel full.

Whether you’re an artist, a creative at heart, or someone feeling the pull toward something more meaningful, this space is here to meet you where you are.

What do we do to stop, stop hiding, stop making ourselves small, stop allowing our shine to be dulled down. How can we come together to glow up and create and live the life we are meant? One that fills our soul and brings love to our hearts?
