Have you ever said, “I suck at _________?” You could fill that blank with meditation, exercise, baking... For me, it was — and honestly still is — “I suck at art.” Many of us have struggled throughout our lives to identify with our creative side. Here on the Habit Thrive Podcast, we like to embrace our creativity - in all forms! And on Episode #179 today, we explore how creativity in our Me-Now years looks nothing like it did in our 20s or 30s — and why that’s actually a gift. Instead of focusing on traditional “art,” we talk about creativity as the way we shape our days: Reorganizing a drawer so mornings flow better Swapping scrolling for a stretch Creating a cozy ritual corner Gently changing a routine that no longer fits These small shifts wake us up from autopilot, return energy, and remind us that we’re intentionally shaping our lives. Creativity builds confidence through self-trust, not perfection. Every time you pivot thoughtfully, you’re practicing creative decision-making. And when you bring play into your routines, whether through music, candles, colour-coding, or tiny rituals of comfort, enjoyment naturally increases. Creativity also deepens your engagement with life. Instead of just getting through the day, you participate more, try new things, nurture friendships, and build rituals you actually look forward to. My own creativity lives in this podcast, my writing, and the classes I create — proof that creativity has endless forms. We all have it, and in these Me-Now years, we get to celebrate the unique ways it shows up in each of us.
