Procrastination and Creative Dreams
Unlocking What Holds You Back
Many people dream of writing, painting, recording, or creating.. but those dreams often stay unfinished, not for lack of passion, but because procrastination gets in the way. This course explores how creative procrastination is less about laziness and more about protection, rooted in childhood experiences of shame, criticism, or dismissal.
Through Julian’s story and guided practices, you’ll learn to trace procrastination back to early messages about creativity, uncover shame-based beliefs and perfectionism, and begin taking small steps toward finishing the projects that matter most to you. Along the way, you’ll discover how to connect creativity with joy, confidence, and belonging, while building sustainable practices that support growth.
