Drawing Doodlebot at the end of a Facebook Live on dealing with self-doubt. Every time I do a doodle (or write, or make music, or [fill in the blank] my self-doubt gremlins tell me I’m not good enough. Without fail.
🖍

Note: For the fullest experience, I recommend listening to the podcast, as the audio version always contains additional comments and tangents not found in the blog post version.
Last week I was up in Whistler, British Columbia, at a training in Advanced Strategic Storytelling with LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® Methods, learning how to weave together LSP methods with the Hero’s Journey.
