Every artist knows the particular exhaustion of making. Energy leaks out into inboxes, algorithms, side gigs, and self-doubt before it reaches the work that matters most. Most wellness advice wasn't built with artists in mind. This gathering is. Coach and facilitator Nicholas Whitaker of the Rebellion Collective leads a grounded, surprisingly playful hour built around one idea: your creativity is a capacity you can tend, the same way you'd tend a fire. We'll look at where your creative energy actually goes, name the places it leaks, and practice a few simple ways to protect it so you can keep making for the long haul. Come tired, come curious, and leave with something you can use that night.
