Priscilla, this is so great! It’s such a great reminder that playfulness and joy aren’t just nice to have—they can actually make a process more engaging and sustainable. I see so many mission-driven creatives struggle with building systems that feel intuitive instead of rigid, and adding an element of cute (or whatever sparks joy) can be such a game-changer. Thanks, as always, for this perspective!
Yes, totally. There’s a feeling of having to do something “seriously” for it to be valid. Or maybe it’s ok for it to be cute/fun if it doesn’t get in the way of the “real” work. But the work might require cute or fun. Like, if you’re not working unless I have your cute things, then they’re not unnecessary.

Stickers exist for a reason!
