Hey,
Challenges are an essential part of any creative process.
While they can feel overwhelming at first, they are an amazing opportunity for growth and development. It's often through challenges that we discover our true potential and create our best work. ✍️
One of the key benefits of embracing challenges is that they can lead to innovation and creativity.
When faced with a problem, we're forced to think outside the box and come up with new and innovative solutions. This can lead to breakthroughs that we never would have discovered if we hadn't been pushed outside of our comfort zones.
Ultimately, it's all about this one mindset shift: Instead of viewing challenges as roadblocks, we can see them as opportunities. 🧠
Always try to approach your work with a sense of curiosity. This completely changes the game.
So the next time you encounter a challenge in your creative work, embrace the feeling and use it to your advantage. You will be surprised by what you're capable of.

Weekly Favs ⚡️
Tools, content and other things I’ve enjoyed over the week.
📱 App – Spotify
After using Apple Music for a few years, I decided to give Spotify a try. I love it. The app feels much faster and the search feature is more powerful. Organising your songs and albums in your library is so much simpler. 🎶
📎 Article – How to Say "No" After Saying "Yes"

Prioritisation is one of the most important skills to master. Saying "no" is the key here – this article shows different ways to do it.
📷 Camera gear – Sony 16-35mm 2.8 GM
After several years, I finally bought my dream lens for some upcoming projects. Having used the Sony 16-35mm 2.8 GM for all of my videos over the last month (Instagram Reels, collaborations, client work, etc.), I now realise how big of a game-changer this is for me and my work. I can make videos SO much faster now. That means I can work on more projects and have more time for other things that matter.
Any thoughts, questions or feedback? I’d love to hear from you! ✍️
👋 See you next week!
