9 Lessons I Learned From Rebecca Yarros - About Creativity, Voice, and Storytelling [Personal Reflection]

9 Lessons I Learned From Rebecca Yarros - About Creativity, Voice, and Storytelling [Personal Reflection] Creativity is one of those words that gets tossed around like confetti. Everyone talks about it, celebrates it, and claims to want more of it in their lives. But if you ask ten people what creativity really is, you’ll likely get ten different answers. Some will call it imagination. Others will call it art. A few will even describe it as a gift, something bestowed on certain individuals but not accessible to everyone. For me, the meaning of creativity shifted dramatically when I began to follow the work of Rebecca Yarrow. She isn’t a household name in the same way that bestselling novelists or blockbuster filmmakers are, but her influence runs deeper than surface-level fame. Rebecca embodies creativity not just in what she produces, but in how she lives. She doesn’t treat it like a fleeting spark or a part-time pursuit. Instead, she treats it as a way of being—a lens through which the world can be seen, understood, and reimagined. When I first came across her work, I was in a season of doubt. I had been wrestling with the nagging belief that my own creative voice didn’t matter. I was writing sporadically, starting projects but abandoning them halfway, waiting endlessly for “inspiration” that seemed to come less and less often. I envied those who seemed to live in a constant state of artistic flow. Grab a copy of this book now!
