Why Discipline Isn’t the Problem (You’re Too Depleted to Create)

You don’t actually lack discipline. You’re trying to create from a body that’s completely depleted. In this episode, I reflect on a recent conversation with a corporate leader client who has a powerful creative vision she wants to bring into the world, but feels unable to access it because of chronic pressure, exhaustion, and burnout. I see this pattern constantly among high-achieving women who are still performing at a high level in demanding roles while quietly carrying dreams of writing, building, creating, or expressing something more. I talk about why creativity feels impossible when you’re depleted, why “just be more disciplined” is the wrong advice for exhausted women, and how we often skip a critical middle step between burnout and our next creative chapter. This episode is about understanding the conditions creativity actually needs, and why rest, environment, and relationship are not indulgences, but requirements. If you’ve been trying to force your next chapter through pressure, this conversation will help you release that belief and reorient toward a more sustainable, honest way of creating.
