DO IT TODAY is a podcast hosted by Kara Cutruzzula, who asks friends and notable figures across creative industries about what they're doing that day—and how they're going to do it. It's an up close look at process and practice, a reminder for you to do your most meaningful work, and a mini dose of encouragement in 20 minutes or less.
Trying to move forward but feeling sloggy or stuck?
1. Do something easy.
2. Do something nice.
3. Do something hard.
And repeat until unstuck.
