Every Monday in 2025 there will be a new journal prompt in the Year of Hope classroom in the Creative Dream Incubator Coaching Membership.

I'd love to hear your thoughts! Leave them in the comments at the bottom of that page so we can discuss this as a group. Practicing hope in community is MAGIC.

This year of practicing hope has been so subtle and deep and healing.

Last November I just felt a deep sense of hopelessness about the future. Which is a really completely natural and valid feeling to feel in response to what was happening in my life and in the world.

Hope was a far-away dream, so I dreamed about it.

And now I feel I have a different relationship with hope, somewhere deep down inside in my inner world that doesn't necessarily impact me day-to-day but does feel like it strengthens the foundation that I live and dream from.

And it feels like a healing and a blessing to see that hope does not judge me for the times when I just can't.

The relationship has strengthened enough that this is ok. The relationship can hold it.

Hope can still believe in me. Hope can still believe in us, and what we can do together.

And it's just like with all dreams, we know what we want to create and how we want to feel and the times when we have and feel the opposite - these are portals of learning and healing. They're not mistakes.

We're not meant to always hold onto hope or optimism or positivity. Trying to do that will only lead to trouble.
