Manifest your dream life

Everything is about to change

I’m in the process of change, big change, in my life and business – I’ve been in this process for a while.

For months I’ve been spending more of my time facing new fears + doubts + gremlins + inner critics. Lately it’s been lots of visits with this new friend called Ms. WORRYWART.? Not fun.

But, with each part I work through new space opens up. And I’m coming to the part where it’s less being in the internal process of change and more making sparkly new things real, out in the world.

Hallelujah!

So at this point, I’m spending less time with the gremlins and more time with CLARITY, FREEDOM, POSSIBILITY and BEING TRUE TO MYSELF AND MY MISSION, which is all-around awesome.

And so: everything is about to change at the Creative Magic Academy.

Everything is going to change to better support my mission of overflowing this whole world with sparkly wishes (fulfilled!) and dreams (come true!).

But first: I’m doing the Creative With Money Online Playdate!? It’s amazing and it’s happening SOON – Oct 26 (next Friday!).

And then: everything will change in November.

Until then: all kits are unavailable, except the Creative Dream Incubator.

If there is a kit you reeeally need like right now, use the contact form on this page to email me.

And coaching remains unavailable.

What is coming next is AMAZING. AMAZING!

Hello! Sparkly wishes (fulfilled!) and dreams (come true!).

You’re going to love it.


PS: The Creative With Money Online Playdate is happening SUPER SOON!

Creative Dreams + Money. It’s a problem, right?

moneydreams

I mean, dreams don't pay the bills, right?

Well, actually, that's wrong.

Creative Dreams can and do pay the bills.

The problem is that CreativeSpiritual people shut off their genius when it comes to money.

Admit it, you do this.

So, before your creative dreams can pay the bills, you have to re-route a path in your brain - from your genius, to your money.

I promise: This is not anywhere near as complicated or weird as it sounds.

In this episode of Creative Dream TV I talk about a whole bunch of questions I got from Creative Dream TV fans, about creative dreams and money.

And I and share a crazy-magic transformational tool that helps no matter what your specific struggle with money looks like - a tool that helps you to start to re-route a path in your brain - from your genius, to your money.

Watch it now:

So let's get your creative genius flowing when it comes to money.

Your dream wants to pay your bills!

My Creative With Money class is now available for free when you join Dream Book.

Creative Dream TV: Guilt over asking for money for your creative gifts

Most creative people have a hard time asking for what their work is worth.

This week's Creative Dream TV question:

"I'm a freelance editor who often works directly with writers. My?clientele?(writers) are notoriously poor! I feel the service I provide is valuable, but I feel guilty charging what I think I should be earning because I know that so many of my clients will struggle to find the money. What should I do? Should I try to find a different clientele??

How can I find the balance between what my clients can pay and what I need to earn?"

In this situation, we have a creative person working with creative people so it's compounded.? But what's happening beneath the surface is what's happening with a lot of creative people:? getting all twisted up when it comes to asking for money for our work - enough money so we can live comfortably.

Watch the episode now:

(Yes, I am wearing my new sovereignty crown!)

Creative WITH Money!

Creative people struggle with money so much because we don't use our creative gifts and strengths when we deal with money.

Admit it - you shut off your brilliant creative genius when it comes to money.

It's time to stop doing that.

 

(Creative with Money, along with allllll of my other courses, is only available inside the Creative Dream Circle.)

How to be BADASS

As I shared last week, for the past year I’ve been running a group called Advanced Creative Badassery.? About how if you want to break out of your own patterns and limitations and create your dreams in your world – you’ve got to be kind of basass.

Then my friends Jenn and Amanda sent me a badass email about this new thing they are doing:

Positive Panties. Curing the crabbies one sweet ass at a time.

When they asked me to join the party, how could I say no?

I made a video for their “How To Tap Into Your Badassery” e-Book.

And, since badassery is important to me, I wantd to share it with you too.? This is how I tap into my badassery:

The Badassery e-Book is free.? Download it here.

Creative Dream TV: What if I don’t know what my dream is?

This week I'm answering a question I get all the time:? What if I don't know what my dream is?

Not knowing is so frustrating!

Or sometimes you think you know what your dream is, but you're not sure. That's frustrating too!

In this video I've got 2 solutions for you. Watch it now:

Spilling my guts

I’m doing my superfantastic Monday Morning Creative Genius Planning session (creating space for all of the things I want to happen this week).
creative journaling

This is usually my favourite part of the week.

But today I’m feeling all tangled up.

I’m realising, more and more, how important transparency is to me.

And how hard it is to hide something!? Like, it takes a lot of energy to keep a thing hidden.? Energy that could better be used elsewhere.

There is something I have not been sharing and somehow the not-sharing is starting to take up too much space.

So here’s the whole story:

Almost a year ago, I started an advanced practice group, it was called Advanced Creative Badassery.? Because to actually actively bring your dreams to life, you’ve got to be kind of basass.

I didn’t promote this or put it on my blog, I sent out one email about it, to everyone who had taken a class with me.

I wanted to start small.? It was important to me to do a really awesomely good job at creating the container before filling it up.

I didn’t want this to be just another online group.? I wanted to it to be a catalyst for magic and possibility and dreams come true.? So I had to explore and experiment and figure out how to do that, and exploring and experimenting are easier for me to do in a small group.

It’s not that I wanted the group to be secret, it’s that it’s all about the more advanced practices and processes of bringing dreams to life.? It’s not a beginner group, it’s for people who are already working with me or taking classes with me, so I didn’t mention it on the blog.

And I was still in the process of creating the group – exploring and discovering and helping it grow into the just-right-thing.? It didn’t feel right to share it until it felt like it was out of the incubation phase.

And at the end of the incubation process, I ended up closing that group, and creating a totally new group: the Creative Dream Circle.

This is the best thing I’ve ever made.

And there is so much space for it to keep getting better.

So many things I want to add to it as it grows, and as I grow.

I. Love. This. Group.

And it’s become super-uncomfortable-tangly-weird to not talk about it here!? My blog is my public dream-growing dream-living journal.? It’s important to be to be transparent.? To share my true story of what it means to live everything I teach about creative dreaming.

Not having such a big, important part of the story here just feels wrong.

And yet, because it’s such a big thing, because I’ve been working on it for a year already, I felt like I couldn’t just say it.? I had to come up with some kind of beautiful-perfect-celebratory way to share it.

So for the past few weeks I’ve been waiting for that beautiful-perfect-celebratory way to share it to come to me.? And it’s not.

It’s really uncomfortable, to have this beautiful thing I want to share, and to not know how to share it.

So, I’m just going to put it out there.

Here it is:

Creative Dream TV: How to cure panic + freakouts on route to your dream

How to cure panic + freakouts on route to your dream

In this week's episode I share a really simple, silly + totally effective way to keep panic + fear from getting in your way.

Watch it now:

Fear is the #1 thing that is stopping you from having what you want.

Your creative potential is MUCH LARGER than any obstacle you face.

But when you listen to your fears, you shrink, which makes the obstacles seem so huge.

You need to stop listening to your fears and start transforming them.

To get my best tools plus ongoing support for transforming fear into something useful - join the Creative Dream Circle today.

It’s not all unicorns and sparkles.

I set out to participate in?Susannah Conway?s August Break and post a photo every day for the month of August.

Last Friday I posted about Creative Burnout and I haven’t posted anything since.

Ha.

Funny how that works.

I am putting together The Best Thing I Have Ever Done.

I am so proud of this and so happy that I have created it.

I’m also so terrified about it.

And everything in between.

That’s all I can really say about it for now.

It’s amazing how much energy it takes to bring something shiny and new into the world.

Right now I’m either working-on-this-thing or actively-filling-the-well, there isn’t space for much of anything else.

I hate my creative capacity!

This morning I had a beautiful picnic breakfast in the park.

Mostly because I am too TOAST to do anything else.

And being in nature recharges me (as do lattes with honey).

I have a lot on my plate right now. A lot a lot.

So yesterday I overdid it.

And today I am TOAST.

I want to say this mostly as a reminder to me:

(Even though I already know this.? But, we all forget sometimes.)

It’s much better to slow down, and do the refilling-of-the-creative-well-things every day when you’re not TOAST then it is to push yourself to work as hard/fast as you can and then become TOAST.

Keeping something from toasting is easier than un-toasting TOAST!

I don’t like that I have a capacity.

But I’ve got it.

And learning how to care for it is so important.

Learning how to care for it opens up possibilities to play with it and stretch it and find out how miraculously flexible it can be in certain situations.

Ignoring it and bulldozing through leaves me TOASTED with no options but to go into Extreme Recovery Mode, which is where I’m going to spend the rest of the day.

PS: For the longest time, I didn’t even know I had a creative capacity!? This is because my creative capacity is actually quite large, and I was always working well enough within it that I never experienced it.

I first started experiencing it when I decided to give myself 6 months to quit my part-time job and do my creativespiritual work full time.

Luckily, I was in Jamie Ridler‘s Circe’s Circle at the time, a Creative Dream Coaching Circle.

Jamie’s support, guidance and expertise were instrumental in helping me learn more about my creative capacity and what to do about it.? And now, thankfully, the days when I become TOAST are few and far between.

PPS: Jamie’s Circe’s Circle Creative Dream Coaching Circle is starting again soon.? I highly recommend it! You can check it out right here.

PPPS:? And now I am off to watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer and eat popcorn and take a bubble bath and a nap and let my brain recharge.

What if you can’t afford the kind of support you need to grow your dream?

support

This week's question is from a Creative Dreamer on a fixed income who cannot afford the kinds of programs that would give her the kind of support and tools she needs to bring her dreams to life.

Even if you can afford the support you need, most of us do find ourselves in a situation when we think something has to change before we can have what we want.

The important thing to know about this is that there is always a way to move forward now.

And that is what this week's episode of Creative Dream TV is all about:


And here is that video I mention in this video: Your Infinite Creative Potential and how it means that Everything Is Possible.

My Monday Morning Ritual: Creative Genius Planning Sesions

I’m changing it up a little this morning with a London Fog latte instead of a regular latte.

But other than that, this is what I do every Monday morning in the coffee shop beside the park.

This week’s planning session is all about Moving Bravely Forward.

Last week I finalized my plans for how I want to shift and change my business to accommodate my new mission: growing truer, deeper + sparklier (not bigger!).

So this week’s Creative Genius Planning Session is all about making a plan to put my new plans into action.

It feels very good to see, clearly, what that looks like and what needs to happen, and when!

Excited!
