Love this! And relate a lot <3

Saw something recently about how humans are wired to create rather than consume, and in the internet era we are consuming far more than we are creating. I feel like if "work" is an opportunity to create something new in the world, the feeling you're talking about makes a lot of sense xx

Wait I love this so much… on the same vain, I find a lot of inspiration in what I consume, but that really fulfilment comes from creating 😌

this is so interesting Amanda! I recently took a month off work while travelling and I felt kind of understimulated and I was so inspired to get back to work (although I think the time off helped cultivate this feeling)

Aw, I'm glad you thought so! I think the key is not doing either in isolation, but finding that happy medium that works for you! I've taken a few big travel stints and also relate to that being so creatively rejuvenating too :)
