Should You Read Reviews of Your Work? The Surprising Freedom of Not Knowing What EVERYBODY Thinks

Episode Summary

Should you read reviews of your work? In this episode, we explore the surprising freedom that can come from stepping away from reviews of your books, artwork, exhibitions, or creative projects. Discover why some phenomenally successful artists and writers choose not to read reviews—and what they do instead to protect their imagination, stretch their creative wings, and keep making meaningful work. Learn how to find the balance between being open to feedback and protecting the precious inner space where your best ideas are born. This episode is for artists and writers who want more joy, freedom, and confidence in their creative practice—without constantly wondering what everybody thinks.
