Follow Your Curiosity is a creativity podcast for ordinary people who want to explore extraordinary creativity and do their creative work more easily.

I’m Nancy Norbeck, a Master Creativity Coach, and I host this show to help you move creativity from a "luxury" to a necessity in your life. Whether you are an exhausted perfectionist looking to reclaim your spark or a creator who wants to move past procrastination, I provide a sanctuary for messy, joyful creativity for people who long to feel human again.

Every other week, I share in-depth, unscripted interviews with people from all backgrounds about their creative lives. We explore how they got started, what shaped them, and how they found their way into their work. In the alternating weeks, I share Creative Pep Talk episodes featuring ideas, tools, and reflections designed to help you quiet your inner critic and take the smallest, easiest step back to your own aliveness.

Following my own curiosity often leads me into unexpected territory—including conversations connected to Doctor Who and the people who bring those stories to life, both in front of and behind the scenes.

Every episode stands on its own, so I invite you to start wherever your curiosity takes you. If you’re ready to practice this way of being in a community, I invite you to join me for a free Creativity Circle.

CPT #121: Find Your Sanctuary

Wednesday Feb 04, 2026

If you’ve been feeling demoralized by the 24-hour news cycle and the weight of the world, you aren't alone and you aren't broken. In this video, we explore why creating a safe haven for yourself isn’t about denial or being "unproductive"—it’s about reclaiming the aliveness you need to keep going.

Most advice tells you to "stay informed" until you're exhausted or "just crush it" despite the chaos. On this podcast, I provide a sanctuary for messy, joyful creativity for people who are tired of the pressure to perform when the world feels like it’s burning.

My Promise to You:

🤦🏻‍♂️ I’ll never tell you to force productivity through resistance.
🤷🏻‍♂️ I won’t ask you to ignore your intuition or reality to fit an ideal.
😁 I will never imply you are "broken" because you need a break.

What we’re exploring today:

The News Cycle Cost: Why it’s okay to say "no" to the constant beating at your attention.
Creativity as Survival: Why awe, wonder, and beauty are the things that make being here worthwhile.
Finding Five Minutes: How to give yourself permission to pull back and reconnect with yourself.

Sound good? If so, subscribe so you don't miss our upcoming guidance on escaping the 'shoulds'!

And if you need a safe place to come and be with others right now, I invite you to join us for our next free Creativity Circle. (Don't forget to confirm your subscription!)
