RESPECTFULLY, PUT THE MOODBOARD DOWN! Curiosity vs. Ambition
About this episode
Welcome back to The Twelfth House podcast! Thanks for sticking around—we can’t wait to share what we’ve been working on!
In this episode, Michelle Pellizzon breaks down the "mood board culture" that’s everywhere these days and why it might actually be holding us back. She shares how too much planning can lead to procrastination, and why taking action—no matter how small—gets you further than perfecting plans. We’ll also talk about the difference between ambition and curiosity, and how curiosity can bring more joy and freedom to your creative projects.
Episode Highlights:
* Mood Board Overload: Why we spend so much time planning and not enough time doing.
* Planning Isn’t Progress: How endless research and prep can actually stop you from moving forward.
* Ambition vs. Curiosity: Michelle explains how focusing on curiosity can make your goals feel more exciting and less pressured.
* Embracing Resistance: A real talk on why creative resistance is totally normal and how to work through it.
* Taking Small Steps: The magic of starting small and staying consistent to avoid procrastination.
