Holding Back Will Help

Things That Will Help

21-09-2020 • 28 mins

Buffy extends the idea of“birth” out of the sole context of birthing a child, and into the world of birthing ideas, business, creativity, relationships, and family structures. In our creative lives, an incubation period is necessary, and how when we over-share, or share too soon, we jeopardize a vital, healthy birth. “When we let things marinate in the dark, they build blood, bone, and nutrients, just like a baby in the womb.”

Who are your midwives for your creativity? Where could you let ideas and beliefs ripen? You’ll hear stories of tomatoes, naysayers, and more.

Buffy references Valarie Kaur, Walt Whitman, and W. B. Yeats.
