Ep. 291: Why Creatives Are Losing Their Spark (And How To Get It Back) - Akua Robinson

In this episode of the Friends in Beauty Podcast, I’m sharing how I spent the month of September fully immersed in community, connection, and creativity. 💕

I’ve noticed that so many beauty pros and creatives — myself included — have been feeling a little uninspired lately. In this episode, I open up about what’s been happening in our industry, why so many of us are losing our spark, and most importantly, how to get it back.

From attending inspiring industry events to having real, unfiltered conversations with my #FriendsInBeauty, I was reminded of how powerful community really is. We’re all craving authenticity and deeper connection — not just surface-level networking — and I want to talk about what that means for us as beauty professionals.

I also share how I’ve been prioritizing rest and giving myself space to recharge creatively, and how those moments of stillness are helping me realign with my purpose. If you’ve been feeling disconnected from your passion or unsure of what’s next, this episode will give you the reminder you need that you’re not alone.

• Community is the cure for creative burnout.

• The beauty industry is craving more authenticity and real connection.

• Rest isn’t lazy — it’s part of the process.

• Reconnecting with your passion starts with being around people who remind you why you started.

• You don’t have to do this journey alone — your community matters.

Enjoy this episode!
