Wow, I really needed this this morning. Thank you for tapping into the particular kind of angst we feel when we are ready to get started on our next creative act, and we’re also perfectionists. Rick Rubin is on my shortlist of people I would invite to my last supper. His book really sparked something in me. And I trust that permission to glow in the dark will do the same. I look forward to buying it and reading it. For now, Thank you for the “permission “to launch.
If Rick is coming, I kind of need to be there too. If only to bus tables or grab clean forks. Happy that resonated Rachel. It's time. Claiming our power is a ready-or-not proposition. I had zero plans to be on Substack on 1/4.
I have to come back to this after work, but for now, love (and to be honest, struggle) with that Rubin flow. Heard him on Brian Koppelman’s podcast and wondered to myself, could creativity be that joyful and easy? This is more evidence in that direction.
I’m somewhere in between, not a big planner (outliner) for my writing, and yet the critic pops up and keeps pretty frequently. Rambling now, but I wrote out a first/intro post and just need to publish it already. That’s the step this week, or at least today.
Yes. Thanks for the share Josh. I think it is that joyful and easy for Rick and artists at that level. Their privilege was won by paying dues really early in carving their own path. I *love* Rick and what he's teaching. It can also feel pretty ethereal for those of us who operate in a few different worlds. I released new music late late year, and that Petty doc was a big inspiration to make it happen.
