The Anxious Creative

Author: Dawn Bradley

I know Im not the only creative out there who struggles with anxiety. But Im pretty sure we can all agree that it sucks. For a long time I felt so alone in my struggles. Like no one understood what I was feeling. I found the more I spoke up about it the more I connected with others just like myself. Thats why Ive created this space, so you can come hang out while I chat about everything from business to relationships and all the awkward and interesting inbetweens of living a creative life. Youll laugh, youll cry, and youll for sure cringe at an inside look of the life of an anxious creative.
