Hey there, I'm Meg!
I’ve built a thriving illustration business in small pockets of time, and now I help artists, makers and creatives grow their business with sustainable systems and intentional strategy.
43 \/\/ Feeling Lost in Your Creative Business? Here's How to Find Your Way Again
First Published: March 24th 2026
Maybe you’ve got too many ideas and no idea which one to focus on, or you’ve been changing direction, doubting yourself, and wondering why everyone else seems so much more certain about what they’re doing.
Or maybe you have been consistent with something…and it still feels like it’s not working.
In this video, I’m talking about what’s really going on when your creative business feels messy, unclear, or all over the place - and why I don’t think that automatically means you’re on the wrong path.
Whether you sell art, run an online shop, create content, offer services, or you’re still figuring out what your creative business is meant to look like, this video will help you make sense of that stuck feeling and start moving forward in a more grounded way.
What I Cover In This Episode:
Why feeling lost doesn’t automatically mean you’re failing
The real reasons so many creatives feel stuck
Why too many ideas can keep you in a loop of starting over
How comparison disguised as “research” can make things worse
What to do when you don’t know what to focus on
Why trying one thing properly matters more than half-trying ten
What to look at if you’ve been consistent and it still isn’t working
If you’ve been searching for how to find direction in your creative business, what to do when you feel stuck as an artist, how to choose what to focus on in your business, or why your creative business feels so messy right now - this video will help!
Who is this for:
Creatives with too many ideas and not enough focus
Artists who feel behind or unsure of their direction
Small business owners stuck between multiple paths
Creatives who’ve been consistent but still feel disappointed by the results
Anyone trying to build a business that feels aligned, not chaotic

I’ve just written a piece about my first paid speaking gig, where I delivered an illustration workshop to over 100 people, and what that experience taught me about stepping outside my comfort zone.
