Really enjoyed this!! I think its such a hard balance today to strike today when artistry has become conflated with content creation and content creation comes with an expectation of pace & immediate feedback. It is hard to feel like we can just create at our own pace, that there really isnt a rush!
I love this! I felt compelled to share my life all the time on social media platforms and recently got off of them... In the quiet, I've been able to take my own life back and be okay with living a mostly unwitnessed life.

Thanks Grace. You are totally right, I feel the pressure especially on Substack right now. We must resist!
Great and thought provoking post. I’ve just started reading The lost art of silence by Sarah Anderson - highly recommend!
Thanks Debbie - I’ve never heard of Anderson’s book, I’ll check it out!
