What’s Beyond Your Creative Limits? Creative Currency, Blocks, and Why You Might Want to Burn Your Vision Board with Victoria Granof
Thursday, 26 March, 2026
“What's beyond the limits of your own creativity and your own ability to manifest.” —Victoria GranofThis episode is your invitation to rethink everything you’ve been told about creativity, productivity, and what it actually means to be “in flow.” I’m joined by food creative, cookbook author, and creative force Victoria Granof, and we’re diving into the energetic, spiritual, and deeply human side of the creative process.Victoria shares her perspective on creative currency, the idea that creativity is meant to move through you. Instead of chasing ideas or trying to “make it happen,” she invites us to become open conduits, allowing creativity to flow in from something greater. Victoria challenges manifestation, including why she is against vision boards (and why you might want to burn yours).We talk about what it looks like to nourish creativity, from meditation and spiritual practices to hands-on creative experiments like watercolor, cooking, and making just one imperfect thing. Victoria tell us about “kicking a brick out” when you feel blocked, small, physical acts of creativity that shift your energy and open new channels.We also explore the tension between structure and flow, perfectionism and play, and how stepping outside of productivity (yes, doing something just for fun) is often the exact thing that brings your best work back online. This episode is a reminder that creativity doesn’t need to be linear, polished, or profitable to be powerful.Whether you’re feeling creatively blocked, questioning your process, or craving more freedom in how you create, this conversation will be the gentle nudge to finally sign up for the pottery class and perhaps, be more open, present in your own creative process.Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, or on your favorite podcast platform while you cook, clean, or create.
