Hey friends,This week’s episode of The Infinite Creator Podcast is part spiritual pep talk, part creative coaching session, and part (slightly damp?) Torah portion. It’s about what it really takes to begin — and keep beginning — especially when things feel unclear, scary, or completely stuck.Because here’s the truth:“In order to do the thing, you have to do the thing.”Yes, it’s simple. But as this episode explores, it’s also complex, emotional, hilarious, and spiritual. I go deep into:* Why clarity comes through doing, not before it* The myth of readiness (and what "red, red, ready" means to me)* Rumi, the Red Sea, and your creative project* Why drafts, mess, and bathingsuit-snags are sacred* Stories about solo shows, Spalding Gray, Bridesmaids, and being a JCC cheerleader (yes, really)This is the one to listen to if:* You’re circling your project but not starting* You’ve started but feel like you're drowning* You just need someone to lovingly shout "WALK INTO THE SEA!"Listen now: 🎧 And if you’re feeling stuck? Confused? Waiting for the creative seas to part…start walking. The clarity lives in the doing.You walk. You get clearer. The clarity helps you move forward, you get clearer....It’s one of the most beautiful infinite loops of the infinite creator.xo, BethP.S.

Aurhenticity. Why knowing who you are and working to express it is a key factor in creative success. And why it’s extremely and esspecially important right now. This one was inspired by my rose bush. I cover the sound of your voice, enoughness, inspiration, second chances and why we are even here.Reminder. Don’t waste a crisis. Essentially: A pep talk for creatives. Dolly Parton says, “Find out who you are and do it on purpose.” Oscar Wilde says, “Be yourself, everyone else is taken.”If you are in Los Angeles love to see you at UnCabaret.
