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.

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.
