I did a simple exercise at the end of 2024. I opened my banking app and added up every subscription tied to my creator business and the number shocked me.
Over $3,000 a year and I was actively using maybe half of them. That moment forced me to confront something most creators avoid, subscriptions don’t just cost money they cost stress and momentum.
In this episode of Create a Flow, I walk you through the exact audit I used to cut my subscription stack down to what truly mattered without losing productivity or creative output.
You’ll learn:
The three hidden costs every subscription creates
Why small monthly fees are harder to evaluate than big purchases
The four categories every creator tool falls into
How to cancel tools without guilt or fear
What my creator stack looks like now and why simpler actually works
Because tools should serve your flow not quietly drain your bank account.
Which subscriptions represent who you are today and which ones represent who you hope to become?
🎧 Listen, do the audit, and give yourself permission to build a simpler and clearer creator stack.
