Loved the audio version! So great to hear your voice and see you practice devotion with the live edits ✨

Aw thank you for listening. Devotion in the live edits and embracing that the imperfection of it might have it's own gift to offer. I was grateful my daughter didn't bust into the room and interrupt my recording -- would have been real but probably a lil too chaotic

The creative sphere is full of so much "advice" about rigor and routine. I can't tell you what a relief it is to be in community with other folks seeking devotion in their work. And, in a way, to hear that it is okay for me to have to *practice* loving my work.

Thank you so much for sharing this piece! As a young creative, I am feeling the pressure of having to find my path but I know that it will emerge through my process and curiosity; nothing is set in stone. I'd say that devotion, to me, is always staying true to myself and trusring my gut.
