So true. I think we all rail against the idea of 'doing it for the money', and while certainly not the chief inspiration, when you're stressing about $$$ (aka most of my 20's and early 30's and occasionally now) it really screws up your whole creative output. Aka, without 1 (financial security), it's much harder to get to 2 (inspiration).

Yup totally agree - it took me a long time to realise that not addressing a way to make a stable income wasn't only not helping my creative output but it was basically making it impossible. Financial stability is all about laying a strong foundation so you can build inspiration, intention, creativity on top of it!
