Do you have any thoughts or ideas about the show? Send us a text! Hello Creators,Holiday shine can feel sharp when your brain won’t switch off. We open with a warm check‑in for creators and performers who feel the December squeeze, then curl up with the first half of The Snow Queen by Hans Christian Andersen—read softly to settle your breath and steady your thoughts.The tale unfolds like a mirror to our creative lives. The troll’s shattered glass warps beauty and amplifies flaws, much like the feed, metrics, and self-comparison that creep in after dark. Looking ahead to the new year, the show returns in January 2026 with five new guest readers and a bigger project taking shape behind the scenes. For now, make tea, dim the room, and let the cadence of a classic carry you toward rest. If this brought you a little peace, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs a softer night, and leave a quick review to help more sleepless creatives find us.I hope all of you have a lovely holiday season and a happy New Year!Florence xSupport the showOur Links: Subscribe to our Newsletter! www.sleeplesscreativespodcast.co.uk Our producer Instagram Linkedin Do you want to feature as one of our Guest Readers in your own special episode?
