You know that feeling when you discover the perfect song that matches your mood, a show so good you cancel plans, or a book that lingers in your thoughts long after the last page? We live for that.

We all have our go-to favorites—the playlist that gets us through Monday mornings, the comfort movie we’ve memorized line by line, or the podcast that somehow always knows what we need to hear. These aren’t just forms of entertainment—they’re fuel for creativity, motivation, and joy.

That’s why we’re sharing what inspires us.

For that reason, we put together our Creative Curations: the shows, music, books, podcasts, and more that have sparked new ideas, made us laugh, and helped us stay inspired through busy seasons.

So whether you’re looking for:

• A pick-me-up for your creative block
• A new binge-worthy TV show
• Uplifting music to soundtrack your day, or
• A book that shifts your perspective

—we’ve got recommendations you’ll love.

In short, we want you to get inspired, refreshed, and maybe a little obsessed (like we are!)

Favorite Music for Creativity & Motivation

• Rushmere by Mumford & Sons – “Eeeek! I am so excited they are back! Mumford & Sons was introduced to me by my now-husband over 16 years ago when we were dating and I've loved their music since. This new album is nothing short than wonderful. The sound is fresh, the lyrics are so positive and real. It's a solid listen for when you are working out or just being productive.”- Sarah from Marketing
• PATTERNS by Kelsea Ballerini – “This album is really good! With incredible production full of hooks, great interactions with melodies, and amazing sound selection interacting well with the lyrics for each song, this album feels like having the best drive to your favorite place with the people you love.” – Rod, (friends with Sarah, Marketing)
