About this audiobook
It’s not uncommon for creatives to think they don’t have what it takes — that they’re not artists or that it’s a mistake to pursue creative endeavors. Our perceived standards of what makes creative work legitimate can prevent great creative minds from even getting started. Maybe this rings true for you as well. But what if it was actually the case that being an artist has little do with your circumstances, or even your skill level — that making art, either in the physical world or in your head, makes you an artist?
This is the starting point for Cherry Jeffs’ Scribd Coach audio course, Trust the Process: Develop Your Creative Voice and Build Creative Habits. In the course, she shares practical advice on establishing a sustainable creative practice to grow your creative wings, as well as how to find your creative voice, how to accept mistakes and adopt a growth mindset, how to go outside your comfort zone, how to build cornerstone habits, how to plan for your creative practice, and more. She also shares exercises along the way to help you put what you’ve learned into practice right away.
If you’re making art, or even just thinking about it, know that you are an artist, and you do have what it takes. Trust the Process can help you build the skills and habits to bring your ideas into reality.
