- In this video: It's been a crazy couple of months and suddenly I'm so tired I don't feel inspired or motivated to work. So let's do this experiment together: what happens if I do all the things on the "Things that inspire me" list? Would I feel like myself again? THANK YOU to wonderful KEVIN for writing the spanish subtitleees!

things you don't know about this video: NERDS: Last week I had the best time! I missed going to museums and going on dates with myself, so I REALLY needed everything I did. Right now I'm feeling way much better, today I started thinking of all the things I want to do next year and I got really excited, so that's a good sign! Right now I'm getting ready for HiFest, can't wait to meet some of you thereee!
How is it that even when you're talking about feeling uninspired and unmotivated, your videos are still so inspiring? How do you do that?!?!
I know you'll feel better soon because you're working on it. And that's the only way :)
hahahaha thank you babyyyyy
So true!
I believe it is bcuz Fran is honest, hard working, intelligent, and beautiful. I love her hair and glasses and I'm prob sounding stalkerish right now lol but i just wanted to say this
you probably dont give a shit but does anybody know of a way to get back into an instagram account..?
I was stupid forgot the account password. I would love any tricks you can offer me!
My list:
Go outside
Clean up my room
Go to a café and watch and sketch people
Visit a bookshop, museum or cinema
:)
SusanneDraws clean up really helps me
Fran, I know I comment on every single video you post, but, Fran, oh, Fran, thank you.
In my experience, when I find myself unmotivated and tired all the time -- and this happens a lot -- it's because I'm overwhelmed. So the mind tries to shut down, but you have work to do, so you can't shut down, but you really want to shut down. But I think the root cause is fear and anxiety. I get super-tired when I'm under time pressure, money pressure, security pressure. And it exhibits itself as a lack of motivation. It's similar to the process that major depressives go through, in my view.
The exact same situation is going on with me too. :(
Wow...thank you for sharing your experience. I'm reading through all the replies because I'm currently going through this "tiredness" now. But I'm still working on my webcomic because if I don't--who will? But yea...I think the fear and anxiety does manifest as demotivation and tiredness. It's like the mind is trying to protect itself...whew..the mind is so powerful.
very true
w0mbles - Exactly what I'm going through right know. It is so freaking annoying.
Ann, I can only suggest what my therapist suggested to me: try to confront your fears. You don't have to do it all at once, but I think it helps to explore some of your fears. I have found that mindfulness training also helps. Best of luck with it Ann!
You are my muse even if you sick and unmotivated! Please get well! I believe in your own magical power !
El primer video de Fran no subtitulado al español, me duele.
Aún así lo gozé.
Te amo.
I like how you talked about how buying art supplies doesn't really do much, because I feel the same (and generally feel horrible about buying things I don't need). Instead I like to go to art stores and look at all the blank paper to get ideas, or to motivate myself to finish up sketchbooks so I can buy new ones. I tend to get more stuck when I feel like I don't have to skills to draw what I want to draw, so I find doing figure sketches works really well for gaining some of that confidence back. (Great Video Thanks!)
Fran,
I'm stalking you on social media since a long time and I wanted to send a comment for the first time because I think it's important to say good things when you think them. I love your personality, your honesty, your way to be brave but also sweet, the way you are not afraid to talk about the different struggles you can have as an artist or in life in general.
My job is far from art (computer science engineering) but I've alway loved to draw, and watching your videos made me start again something that I forgot made me once feel so good. I even added color to my drawings because of you, watercolors to be exact.
Thank you so much for this, all of your videos make me want to go to my desk and draw and it's priceless.
Keep being awesome!
Hey Fran! The way I deal with lack of motivation is that I light this one specific candle that I remember burning when I was going through an awesome, exciting creative time in my life. The smell of it brings me back to that day and reminds me why I'm in this industry/career path/hobby. What I also do when I'm in this situation is I turn my attention onto something else I'm interested in that has nothing to do with drawing. I do this especially after a client project because the work kind of cuts my creative appetite. So I let the drawing part of my mind relax a bit and do something else that inspires me so either playing an instrument, reading, movies.
This is me right now, Fran. I feel so burned out. Balancing between RUclips, Illustration projects and Family. :( Thank you for this video and I hope you are feeling better now.
I’m glad it’s not just me who has a drawer full of brand new sketchbooks! When i feel unmotivated i like to try and collage, using magazine cut outs and scraps of paper, this enables me to try new colour palettes as well as feeds my need to create something
I heard someone say on a podcast one time that they “just want to live long enough to use up all their art supplies” and now I think about that every single time I purchase new things. Loved this video SO MUCH, Fran.
Your motivation will return when it’s the worst time, when you have no time to do all of the art things you want to do! That’s how it always seems to go for me 😆 You’re in good company; I’ve felt just the same for over a month.
I have you on in the background Fran whilst working but just wanted to pop on a say YES to walking around on your own with no music or podcasts! I have found that has been so good for me to be outside and explore the place in which I live, I've taken up sketching too as it forces me to sit and observe outside and be calm and early in the morning means there's hardly anyone about! (Just noticed that there are some beautiful buildings that would be awesome to sketch in your walk-about)
Maybe you don't feel inspired, but you have to know that the things you created while searching for inspiration are absolutely marvelous.
one thing I do to get myself inspired is to flip through my old sketchbooks and pick out a drawing I was very proud of at the time, and redraw it. it's great because you can check out your old stuff, and also gauge how much further youve come!!
Mi lista es la siguiente.
-ver una serie que me gusta.
-ver tus vídeos y leer/ver tus libros.
-escuchar música
-ver ilustraciones
-si nada funciona hacer lo siguiente "A VER HDP! HOY VAS A DIBUJAR Y LO HARAS GENIAL! NO PUEDES SEGUIR PERDIENDO EL TIEMPO! EL TIEMPO ES ORO Y TIENES QUE MEJORAR, ASI QUE LO HACES POR LAS BUENAS O POR LAS MALAS!"
Y así me inspiro uvu
Por cierto Fran me ha encantado el vídeo! A pesar de ser super largo no lo notas para nada extenso, está muy bien hecho! Felicitaciones! Y espero que pronto puedas salir del estado en el que te encuentras
I feel like I have just been sent a video from a friend made especially for me. ❤☕
Another thing, every time I finish one of your videos, I feel so light that I could go flying around the house. Thank you for this channel!
This is the perfect reminder to get back on track and finish my art projects, they won’t get done by themselves!
I never spend very much time by myself anymore because I’m scared of checking in with myself & acknowledging how much things have changed and slipped and how I feel about it. These videos are helping to inspire me to be stronger with my weak parts, thank you so much for making these. ❤️
Watching your videos (especially Let's drawing something-playlist) is the most helpful to start to work when I tired or even exhausted. Thank you for sharing your and feelings, Fran! I'm so thankful to you!
My best trick is going out and learning something new. I've realised that learning is something that fulfills me, and you can never stop learning enough. So whether it's improving on something or learning something entirely new, it's sort of an act of meditation that shakes up and challenges your brain. If anything, I can feel content at the end of the day that I've learned or grown in some way, even if just a tiny bit, step by step.
It's so comforting to hear that someone else has the same issues with motivation and separating work and down time. You really inspire me to be better Fran 💓
"We are not checking in with our thoughts". This is so wise and motivational, thank you for making me understand the roots of the problem with this amazing thought!!!
One thing that helps me is checking people I admire on instagram! I have somehow overcome the "I will never be this good" kind of thinking, and looking at other people creating cool stuff motivates me to try to do the same. So I save a lot of posts from instagram, when I'm feeling uninspired I have this whole folder of inspiration and motivation to look at.
One thing that I do when I'm feeling unmotivated is redrawing stuff from a few years ago. It always makes me smile when I see my improvement and it makes me feel productive :)
for someone unmotivated you sure know how to make me motivated. i really enjoyed this video so honest and from the heart. I have been feeling as you are for quite some time and never actually thought about taking care of my mind or anything. i just feel like i have to keep producing and exercising to get better . but you have some great points and this is what i needed to start changing my over all state of mind. i wish you the best of luck and i am sure you will find yourself again.
Don't worry Fran, you will be alright soon as much as you do all the time You are my inspiration. You give me so much motivation too. Everyone got blessed by you and your honest and kind comments. Thank you so much.
Honestly? This is so brave of you to share! I totally loved watching this video. Surely not because you suffer. But because you show off so real. I got the feeling that you truly are yourself - that is so rare today. I hope you're finding your way back to motivation and inspiration as soon as possible. I'll keep my fingers crossed. But for sure I know you will :)
Fran I love how you care about your audience's well being. I hope you get back to a motivated space soon. Love watching your videos.
I love that you say that you only need yourself to make good art. Not good tools. Kudos !
My favorite thing to do when I am uninspired is going to the grocery store-- specifically the Asian grocery store-- because all the different colors and packaging and strange new foods really get my brain going! Reading cookbooks from foreign cultures also helps.
when i feel gunky i usually take a night to pamper myself and zone out a bit. I take a nice long shower or bath, get some comfort food, and settle in to watch a favorite movie. Kiki's delivery service usually makes me feel better
Hi Fran! Try to remember that you are a wonderful and worthwhile person, regardless of how productive (or unproductive) you are.
Fran, when you post videos I feel as if I am having a personal conversation with an old friend. I have been living in the U.S for a year now and I feel very lonely at times but thanks to your videos I feel like I have a friend. Thank you for uploading and being such an honest person.
P.s. i truly hope you feel better mentaly and phisically.
When I’m feeling burned out and not creative, I go on a hike with my dog through the woods, no phone, no headphones, no watch or time limit. I also go to my local library and just wander and flip through books, maybe take one out, but I don’t force myself to have that goal. And the last thing I do is go to a new yoga class. I go regularly anyways, but if I’m super strung out, I will check out a special workshop or visiting teacher or new studio just for the day to get a new perspective and move my body in new ways.
Awesome video, as usual, I always look forward to your uploads 😸
*gently pets sketchbook* i do that all the time. It’s tough leaving them behind, but you’re right! Everything you need is already there. Thank you Fran!
I think I love how you re-did the face with skulls in the illustration , it just gives a whole new depth to the drawing and grabs my attention.
Thank you Fran! For modeling self-care and patience and kindness with your heart and mind. So love following along with you!
I come to your channel when I'm feeling unmotivated. Really helps me to get moving and try things.
I just graduated and I'm currently job hunting so I feel exactly the same. I feel like I have to be productive all the time and either spend time looking for a job or spend time building skills that could be useful for the job I'm looking for.
Same boat ! Sending all the love and energy your way !
A show I really recommend for illustrative inspiration is Over the Garden Wall! The art, music, and overall stylistic approach is so beautiful and cozy feeling
i have been feeling so unmotivated & planned on going to the art shop to add to my copic collection, thinking it would help how im feeling. i don’t NEED any more at the moment, spending irrationally to try & dismiss how im feeling isn’t the way to get back to it. love u fran, videos like this, that are so raw & real are so inspiring 💓
Hey Fran, something my running coach says is that there's something you can do to improve everyday, and sometimes, that means resting. It's one of those "better to stay where you are, than to take one step forward then two steps backward" kinds of deals, and I find that it helps me when I'm feeling down!
Hi fran , it's refreshing to hear someone being just so dam honest about the struggles of being an artist and illustrator, I'm an illustrator also and when I'm feeling uninspired I sometimes look through my old sketchbooks/note books as I often have hidden gems of ideas I once had, jotted or sketched down but never developed, I also find going out for a walk very helpful, keep making your excellent videos xx
Love, love, love this. I'm a book designer...listening to this at work at 4:00 pm on a Thursday :) and as much as I love my job, burnout is real. Whether it's pressure from inside of me or outside of me (deadlines!) it's so important to make time for self care and make mental space for inspiration. Thanks for the reminder.
I don't really know how to thank you anymore, your channel has become so important in my life and you are helping me more than any book on inspiration! You are amazing
Dear Fran, I hope you get over this phase soon. I truly admire your capacity to make such beautiful interpretations of famous paintings
I can related so much with the part on buy new art supplies. I made this mistake soooo many times before. Walking on a park or in the forest helps me a lot when I need motivation and inspiration. Walking alone gives me the mental break I need. Thank you so much for your video! It was exactly the kind of talk I need to hear ❤
I’ve found that the lack of inspiration/art blocked parts of my life come right before really big artistic growths! I used to really dread them and now I still hate them, but I try to embrace them because I know I’ll be a better artist after trudging through it. Keep your head up, Fran!
"I don't wanna rely on the idea of new art supplies are going to change this situation in which I am right now, because they're not going to change it. It will be a temporary fix, like a temporary solution. So I wanna fight this until the end. And to be honest guys, I have so many sketchbooks."
I just had to quote these words of yours because I can relate to it 100%. I used to go to bookstores or art supplies stores, and then buy a new notebook, or a brush, or watercolors thinking that it would help me be "inspired", but I just end up with one container box of art materials that I have yet to consume. Hahaha! I guess sitting through the discomfort, and just continuing on drawing and doing simple practice can help a lot. Thank you so much for letting us be a part of this journey!
I’ve been going through the same thing, I’ve been working 10 hour days at my desk job and then trying to work on becoming an illustrator afterwards, and am so burnt out I never have the motivation to do my own projects at the end of the day. It is so comforting to know that other people go through the same overwhelming and stressful periods - especially the people I look up to so much, like you! You’re doing great, keep taking care of yourself and believing in your work :)
I totally get what you mean. Lot of times I feel unproductive and wanting to be away from work. And then I felt guilty when I should be off from work. So I would work more. So nice to know even for an artist who loves creating also feel this way from time to time.
I just wanted to say how much I love the way you edit your videos. They're so artistic and zero pretentious. You have such a beautiful light. Sending love and good vibes from Colombia ♥
Thank you for keeping creativity so realistic!! I feel like a lot of people see artists post daily on social media and they get discouraged. I think that "low" creativity and inspiration needs to be shown more to reassure people that is okay. Also moods like this is a sign to look after yourself; which you said in the video. Thank you so muchhhhhhh💕
For me it is all about meeting my basic needs to remove that weight from my mind. The biggest unexpected culprit hast turned out to be needing Exercise. I know about sleep and food and me-time, but for some reason I forget about getting exercise. Taking a walk makes a big difference, and running or yoga make an even bigger difference. Good luck, Fran. Your drawings are still awesome, even if you are feeling down!
I must love you so much. Everything about this video... Everything. I feel so much better knowing that I'm not the only one in that vicious cycle of "guilt at rest" and "tired while working". Thank you. Thank you thank you. I feel the reconnection starting already.
Fran, you are truly a beautiful person. You inspire people to be good. Thank you for that.
Thank you fran ❤, I really needed this.
We’ve all been there Fran! This too shall pass!! Some things that I do when I need inspiration:
organize my studio, listen to records, watch art documentaries (anything w/ Banksy or Marina Abramovic for me), watch the 'Work of Art' reality tv show (it's on RUclips!), watch other movies that inspire me (anything from Wes Anderson, Marie Antoinette, Amadeus, or Coraline), clean my paintbrushes and sharpen all of my colored pencils, destroy something in my sketchbook and try to make something new on top of whatever I destroyed, paint or draw a pattern over and over and over again, drink & draw (hello, wine!), and last but not least - do NOTHING until inspiration strikes again! xoxo
Hola Fran: Lo que yo hago para el bloqueo es alejarme de la escritura o el dibujo para hacer otras cosas a las que no le había dedicado tiempo, por ejemplo, aprovecho para hacer limpieza general de mi habitación o voy al cine a relajarme, desconectarse me ayuda mucho porque mi cerebro se siente tan presionado que entra en pánico y se bloquea, así que hay que relajarse porque en el estado de angustia, uno no hace nada y se siente peor. No es un crimen hacer una pausa, es necesaria para que funcionemos, es díficil, pero poco a poco (con garabatos o alguna tontería pequeña) verás que el muro se cae. Espero que te mejores de tu gripa.
Thank you for doing videos like this. I hope you feel better. You seem to be on the right path (if I can say that from the outside).
It's hard to see someone struggeling. But it's also more relatable than only seeing someone thrive all the time. Everyone has ups and downs. But when we only see these polished social media feeds we compare our struggles to the curated perfection and feel like a failure in life.
I also find it helpful to see your strategy of getting over feeling unmotivated as an artist.
You put this plan to action of all the things you know will make you get better. And you still produce work although you might not feel like it. Those actions are so important.
You are a great role model to me! Rock on, Fran
You are such a huge inspiration to me and I always love when you upload. Sometimes all it takes is a gentle reminder that fellow illustrators are going through the same things. I hope that you feel better soon and that you find overwhelming inspiration in everyday life soon. Sending love from Canada to Hastings!
It's over a year later than this was video was uploaded, but it just appeared and I wanted to show my appreciation for how open you are about struggling with motivation. Just watching this allowed me to realize that I've not been filling my cup with motivational activities. Also, you fill that cup of motivation for me too.
everytime ( e v e r y t i m e) i watch your videos i feel so much better. either inspiration and motivation come back or i simply don't feel horrible anymore, it's just beautiful. thank you so much!
I've been feeling the same lately. So burnt out and tired. Thank you for making this. Self care is so important.
Every time I watch one of your video, you say something that changes my entire outlook on my artistic situation. I needed this so much. Thank you.
Omg Fran, like, oh! You save me every day. How do you even do this.
You have no idea how much you help not just me but probably loads of people by just sharing your experience and explaining how to get back on track.
Thank you for posting this! I hate the feeling of being uninspired / motivated. I just got out of my year long rut! I found it helpful to gather inspirational pictures, online or in a book. Watching youtubers talk about artpractice or timelapse of them just creating. Also important to please my inner child and do the fun creative things I enjoyed when I was young before creating became part of my career / job. Xx :)
You talk about looking for inspiration, while inspiring so much!
Thank you for this Fran, its amazingly brave of you when feeling so vulnerable to produce something so brave and honest.
When I need a boost of motivation I usually take a break and pick a different artistic hobby; I'm an illustrator but I also like making jewelry and paper craft. It satisfies the feeling of wanting to create something.
I'm glad i'm not the only one who have these feelings. Thanks for your videos Fran, you motivate me to create and to stay determined. Love from France ❤
Thank you for your being honest and sharing your thoughts and feelings with us and also your strategies to water your inner plant , they are so helpful to get back on track. You are very inspiring and uplifting, it's as if I were talking to a good friend. If I'm out of tune with myself I am the kind of person that needs to hang out with good friends and have a good chat, and also even though I might be tired I love to go swing dancing, especially Lindy Hop, it's so joyful and it totally frees my mind of all my thoughts. Intense activities where I need all my concentration help me a lot to free my mind.. Take a good rest and get well soon, dear Fran!
Thank you for sharing this!!! When I feel unmotivated/uninspired, I like to switch to another hobby...like writing or playing music...or cooking something really fancy. I also like to go to the theater/ballet/concert to see something live. If I'm feeling really down with my creativity, I get together with my friends and try to collaborate on something. I love being an artist but it can be very lonely! Sometimes the loneliness brings great work, and sometimes it can drain creativity away. But we are lucky to have such a strong art community and people like you bringing us great and honest videos! Your RUclips family is always here for you because you are always here for us :)
I love you, Fran! Your beautiful videos always resonate with me. I'm kind of experiencing the same thing as you recently. And my BEST advice is...go out into nature. Going to a park or garden, for me, is so rejuvenating. There is something about going out and hearing the sounds of nature...being surrounded by all these living things with no expectations or obligations we humans are weighted down by. That peace and freedom they experience restores me. Hopefully that makes sense!
I can hear you all day long! I can relate so much with you right now. And I'm not even an artist. I guess when we are done with a big project, in your case the planner, we enter on a state of mind that is not the ideal. And I think it's normal to feel like this. Naturally over time we will adjusting our mind to go back to work again, without the need of another big project to replace the last one. Good Luck! And a big hug from Brazil.
I love going to libraries or bookstores when I’m unmotivated or stressed. To be honest I love judging books by their cover lol. The art on covers makes me happy. Kids books are especially wonderful. I feel it takes a lot of creativity and happiness to make a kids book. Being in a bookstore also forces me to do homework when I don’t feel productive. It’s like, “You’re already here so might as well get some work done.” But it’s also an amazing place to just explore and learn new things. I want to design and build a tree house someday and it’s partly because of the wonderful books I have seen on my “explorations”. Sadly I’m not at a point in my life where my hobbies are my number one priority. But I’m hoping that the little bits of knowledge I’ve being collecting over the years will help me when it can be number one. I hope you get better Fran :) and I always appreciate your honesty in videos. You and Holly both do a great job of being open with us and it inspires me to be honest with myself.
This is a super useful video for me right now. Thank you Fran!
I also really like reading through everyone else's lists.
One thing that really helps me is a studio ghibli cleaning montage! I tie my hair up, put an apron on and hack away at some dirt or mess and it makes me feel a little better.
I felt the same so many times and my trick is this. I say to myself: I am not just an illustrator. I am so much more. I am also a nice person, a friend, a nature lover, a gourmet and a lot of things what makes me how I am. It helps to feel a little distance between my work and my soul because it's not the same. My soul is just the source of creating.
The hardest thing to be an artist that we totally determine ourself with our work and results. Take a few days to enjoy your hobbies :) Make yourself happy with simple things. Don't push yourself to make or work. You are lovely person but not only Fran, the illustrator. You can be anything you want to be. The art is just one of your favourite hobby. :))) It will be easier this way!
This is one of the best videos you have made, I love listening how you try to recover inspiration. I felt a little tired and sad these days. And this only remember me how important is to look at yourself. Thanks for the words and for share your experience, I always come to your videos to feel better. You are one of those thinks that inspires me a lot. Un abrazo fuerte desde México. Gracias 😊
Your work ethic and artistic courage inspire me so so much! My best remedy for feeling whole again is taking long walks in the nature / city. Another one is creating something outside of your main medium just for fun (I'm a writer - so I try to paint or play music, do photography, etc..). ❤️
Your skull self washing dishes made me laugh so hard. That's how I feel every time I wash dishes.
Thank you Frann!!!💖, i really needed this video, when i see your notification on the morning i wake up with my heart bumpping of emotion. You really helped me to see that we can help ourselves to be motivated again! Your words really warmed up my heart!💖💖💖
This is so true! So inspirational, so honest. I love you! I absolutely needed to see this!!!
This video is so beautiful!
I needed this!! And I know many other people needed this too. So inspiring!
YES. Thank you for this. I’m currently on sick leave after having my second surgery in regard to endometriosis and for so many months now due to feeling so unwell my motivation levels have been at zero no matter how inspired I get from things around me. It’s oddly nice to know other people are going through the same stuff as you and that it’s okay
I am so appreciative of the advice about buying new supplies. Someone needed to say it! I've learned that the hard way. New supplies does not = New You or Instant Solutions
Jasmine Harvey I couldn't agree more. I've been guilty of this very thing many, many times. Then I get home, and wander around / feel tired and nothing happens. I now feel guilty because of all the $spent & I have piles of unused sketchbooks & supplies and am still stuck.... it's a vicious cycle, but now I've managed to curb it quite a bit
Ellen M I completely understand that stuck feeling. I've found that doing "artist hoards" I think it's called, and going through the supplies you do have to do some simple easy projects, gets me back in the groove. I try to accept that what I make may not be perfect or "sellable" but it's mine and I made it. I try going back to what I know I do well. Even if it's like drawing shapes or studies
I've been commenting all almost all your videos 😅 but Fran, you're so so likeable as a person! OMG .. you getting uninspired also is so soothing to watch hehe! Loads of love to you 💝
You're one of the fixes for when I'm not motivated to create ♡ I put your let's draw something videos on loop in the background and just see where things go ~
I've got deadlines coming up, I'm behind on my work and the one thing I could do without right now is being uninspired with who I am as an artist. I'm redoing my second year of university because of personal difficulties from last year. Now I'm at the same point in time where things got tough for me, and all I feel is "but you have no reason to feel this crappy, nothing bad has happened. Life is good now." So I've given myself this unrealistic expectation on how things "SHOULD BE"... rather than telling myself "we all have our struggles. I'm not the only one. I've just got to persist and push through this, and take care of myself."
Your video couldn't have been any more perfect timing, thankyou Fran x
Sorry your having a hard time. I get how you feel. Fall here drains my energy. I feel lazy for being tired. It's silly but we all feel it. The art looks so beautiful. I started a few art journals and that keeps my stress level lower.
I hope you feel better soon, dearest Fran
I honestly hope you feel better soon, it hurts a little to see a person you admire and care about not being at their best. Get well soon, Frann.
best wishes, all the from Brazil
I love you too Fran ❤️ thank you for sharing this part of you 😊
Loved this video Fran!! I'm one of those people who love the rush of buying new art supplies and walking around the art museum for inspo.
Love how real your channel is!
I love your videos. I'm a photographer and I watch them when I need inspiration or motivation. Your videos make me feel just like I do when I'm sitting down for coffee with my best friend. Motivation is a very fickle thing. Thanks for being vulnerable on video. I hope you feel better soon. You work so hard and it shows.
Also studio ghibli is my go to anytime I'm feeling down. They make me feel strong.
I can’t wait to partake in some self care, now, to get back to being myself. Thanks for the reminder 🧡
