Listen now (14 min) | What it is & how to save it, spend it & store it... Knowing how our creative stores are going - (what are we rich in, what are we poor in), then empowers us to “budget” so to speak for our projects.
I was diagnosed with ADHD a few years ago and this metaphor really works with my brain. I've been trying to operate with these things in mind for awhile and it's helpful to have words and images to associate with them.
I’m so happy to hear you found it helpful! It makes sense for my brain, I just needed a way to segment it up like that, but it’s awesome to hear it’s helpful for others too.
You've given us words to talk about this. So, I can say right now, that whilst my creative account is overflowing, I am so low on both emotional and energy dollars! In fact, I'm planning a 2 or 3 day self retreat next week to help me earn some so I can start budgetting for all the ideas I have! This is both an innovative and useful way to think about how we manage our creative projects. Thank you for sharing, Keeley.
This is super interesting. I've long talked about a goodwill bank and an energy first mentality (like profit first, but energy) so this definitely resonates.

Great podcast title. These currencies should be added to our annual appraisals.
Absolutely. 😉
Wow - this rubric has instantly given me clarity on so many aspects of my life right now! Thank you for sharing, Keeley!
