Creators That Crush
Creating isn't just hard—it's one of the hardest things you can do. There's no step-by-step guide, no guarantees, and no one telling you what to do. For creators, the biggest challenges often lie outside their craft: navigating self-doubt, battling burnout, and pushing through the frustration of slow progress. That's where 'Creators That Crush' comes in. Hosted by certified high-performance coach Shawn Buttner, this show helps you tackle what's holding you back—perfectionism, fear of failure, and overwhelm—so you can thrive sustainably as a creator. Through actionable advice and personal insights, Shawn breaks down the four key areas of creative success: positive psychology, punchy physiology, purposeful productivity, and persuasive people skills. Whether you're seeking to reignite your creative spark, build healthier habits, or overcome imposter syndrome, you'll discover the tools needed to build the life and career you've been working toward. Subscribe today to cut through the chaos, master your craft, and enjoy the process!
