Hello divine being,

My name is Ayanda and I'm a podcast host, YouTuber, TikTok and IG creator, and writer with a combined audience of over 400,000, wonderful souls. Before I create literally ANYTHING, here's exactly what I do: 

I listen to an audiobook, podcast, or specific music to either calm me down or hype me up… OR I read a book, essay or poem to help catalyze my creativity.

I return to these words and works OFTEN, reaching for their familiar wisdom in times of need. This simple ritual moves me from fear to flow; from confusion to courage in the face of the unknown — and I feel in my heart that it can do the same for you.

So, I have combined over 3 YEARS of every book, essay, poem, YouTube video, podcast EPISODE, and music playlist that has supported me into ONE SINGLE EBOOK. 

Creative CataList will spark your creative juices, and help you take inspired action from a place of feeling more seen and supported. These works have helped unlock some of my most VIRAL, loving, and resonant videos and podcast episodes. 

You’re here because you are always seeking to expand creatively, and you sense that I have something meaningful to offer you on your path. Here’s everything that has helped me on mine. I wonder what it could unlock for you?
