"What happens when you try to build a creative life while also being a responsible adult?
Disorder. But delightfully so.
Join writer Breallyn and her husband Lyndon as they navigate the unpredictable, deeply satisfying, and occasionally absurd reality of making art while managing, well… everything else. From creative breakthroughs to imposter syndrome, from the rush of finishing a project to the frustration of starting over, they share an unfiltered look at what it really takes to transform inspiration into finished work.
Whether you’re a writer, musician, artist, or just someone who believes creativity is worth the effort, this podcast from Creative Life Chronicles is for you.

"We wrestle with whether we can curate our lives as we go, or only recognize the shape of it when we look back."
We are currently away from the studio for a few weeks - trading the microphones for the sounds of the bush on a summer camping trip - so we wanted to take this opportunity to re-share a conversation that remains one of our most meaningful.
In this heavy yet heartfelt episode, we step into deeper waters to reflect on the life and legacy of our dear friend, Salima. We explore the idea that every life—intentionally or not—becomes a living work of art. From grief to philosophy, from memory to meaning, we wrestle with whether we can truly curate our lives as we go, or if we can only recognize the shape of them when we look back.
