Back when I did not have a clear understanding of the values that I held most dear, it's no coincidence that I didn't feel like a creator. It turns out: one of my most deeply held values is Freedom. I was not giving myself permission to feel like a creator. How do your most deeply held values align with your self, and your view of yourself as a creator? Today I'm taking you into an exercise that's helpful in those times when you feel like you could use a compass to stay centered amidst the disru...

Hello friends! I hope March is starting off very well for you! What are you up to creatively?I see that I have been feeling better by creating.Late last year I decided to spend at least one hour per day in what I think of as "creative enjoyment." This is everything from taking a walk or hike – or over the last week or so, getting out to go skiing where I'm staying with my parents in the Colorado Rockies – to creating art, writing, making fun stuff! The rule has been that it's not about consuming...

Greetings! In this module of our Autumn Curriculum – which, while ordinarily for the paid supporters, I'm sharing with everyone in case a tool for feeling okay inside might be helpful for you right now – is about becoming aware of the self talk within.I've heard this self talk referred to as the psyche, and my favorite term: the "inner roommate." However we think of this entity, it's good to be aware of because once we can observe, it means we can pause and respond rather than reacting to events...
