Meet shauna knapp

We recently connected with Shauna Knapp and have shared our conversation below.

Hi Shauna, so excited to have you with us today, particularly to get your insight on a topic that comes up constantly in the community – overcoming creativity blocks. Any thoughts you can share with us?

To overcome/beat creativity blocks aka writer block I normally set a small goal. I break down the writing task into smaller, manageable parts. Sometimes writing a single sentence or paragraph that help build momentum. Also sometimes I set a free writing timer. I set a timer for 10-15 minutes and write whatever comes to my mind without worrying about grammar or structure. It helps clear mental block. Another way is change in your environment, sometimes just a change in your scenery can stimulate creativity.

Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?

My name is Shauna Knapp and I am a music artist from Kansas City KS. I love making music because it not only helps me but helps my fans. There is someone out there right now going through it just like me. Making a song a fan can relate and contact me and advise how it help them really means so much. I love traveling and preforming, meeting fans I had no idea I had. I been singing since I was a child aways wanted to be a singer.

Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?

Always stay working- Never give up on your Dream-
Learn- Always been ready to learn more
People around you- make sure the people around you are on the same page as you. People who have other intentions are people that will hold you back

What has been your biggest area of growth or improvement in the past 12 months?

I feel like the biggest area of growth was me graduating from Full Sail University and then putting out my new album Stronger.
