⏱️ Making Time: Creativity over Productivity — with Maria Bowler

How do we stay creative — when there’s so much to do and so much at stake?

Today I’m joined by writer, coach, and retreat leader Maria Bowler for a practical and philosophical conversation about:
  • The difference between productivity & creativity
  • Why we don’t want to focus on “being efficient” or “maximizing ROI”
  • How to actually be present (without feeling like you’re just being told to “be present”)
  • The pain of alienation & how it permeates our daily lives
  • Distinguishing between creative friction & oppressive friction
  • Why creating more isn’t about doing less
  • How to stretch time, lose track of it, and be with yourself beyond the clock
  • What Maria thinks about social media this year
