Lovely to read about your word of the year. I've shared mine in your subscribers chat.
I find joy in doing my art and in journaling. And writing when the overwhelm sets in. But when it's really bad, I just sit with it, knowing (from experience) that it will pass.
I too have a husband who does grocery shopping, chemist runs, bill paying and everything else in between while I stay buried writing Substack posts, books, novel edits, social media comments. Sometimes I wonder why the hell I am doing it. The feeling passes soon and I am back to my writing.

I am terrible with sitting with things. That’s one of the reasons why I paint! And then yes, it does pass!
Write/create for yourself first, everything else comes second.
Yes!! 🙌
