Pursuing Creativity in the Margins of Motherhood with Ashlee Gadd

Live Creatively with Megan Sjuts

How can we pursue creativity in the messy margins of motherhood?

In this episode of Live Creatively, I’m chatting with Ashlee Gadd. Ashlee is the author of Create Anyway: The Joy of Pursuing Creativity in the Margins of Motherhood and the founder of Coffee + Crumbs—a beautiful online space where motherhood and storytelling intersect. As a writer and photographer, Ashlee has spent her entire motherhood creating in the margins.

I absolutely loved this candid conversation with fellow creative mama, Ashlee. We talked about how to be intentional in the ways we pursue creativity in the (very limited) margins of motherhood – and even find joy in the midst of it all.

Listen in as Ashlee and I chat about:

• The truth that creativity and motherhood can coexist

• How to carve out time to be creative in your everyday life

• The things Ashlee has had to sacrifice to make space for creativity

• How to adjust as your creative routines and rhythms change over the years

• Believing that creativity is worthy of taking up space in our lives

• Baby steps we can take to start creating room for creativity

If you are struggling to pursue your God-given creative gifts alongside motherhood, this episode is for you!
