Guided journaling session: releasing the starving artist
I’ve spent a lot of time reflecting on the “starving artist” narrative—the idea that to be creative means to struggle, especially when it comes to money. And honestly? I’m done with it.
That’s why I created this guided journaling session, designed to help you (and me!) release limiting beliefs about money and build a more empowered, confident mindset around our creative work. This session is gentle, introspective, and something you can return to again and again.
What This Session Is All About
Whether you're a photographer, creative business owner, or just someone who wants to feel better about money, this episode walks you through a simple but powerful process. With calming music and prompts to guide your thoughts, we’ll work together to:
Let go of old, limiting beliefs about money and success
Reframe how we see our creative value
Create positive, supportive affirmations
Ground those beliefs in real, tangible action
You don’t need to believe in hustle culture to thrive creatively—and you certainly don’t need to suffer financially to be a “real” artist.
✨ You are allowed to thrive creatively. You are allowed to be financially abundant.
