There’s a difference between doing things mindlessly and doing things consciously. Have you ever gone grocery shopping and realized once you got home that you bought *some* (ahem, a lot) of unhealthy options? Aaand you forgot the apples? Being intentional about that journey is a small example of how we ignore sets of behaviours. Now……
As creative, talented women we often pride ourselves on being perfectionists. There’s good reason too. The high standards we hold for ourselves and what we create make us (when we finally get around to it) produce some of the most wonderful, detailed and precise work. It’s true that being a perfectionist has many benefits. But……
May always feels like the most wonderful month of the year. Not only is it often the month when the Sun comes out and Nature is in full bloom, but also – and most importantly – because it’s my birthday month! Even without the birthday celebrations, May counts as the best month of the year……
Last month has been one of personal growth, connection, and creative discovery. Throughout April I challenged myself to think new thoughts and do new things, to meet new people, and to go in search of new opportunities for myself, and my business. By far the best month of the year so far. I’m learning to……

As a multi-passionate woman it took me years to figure out how to declutter my mind, and organize my many passions, and interests in such a way that I could remain focused, and move forward with the projects I’d set out to work on. More than once I started something, only to leave it unfinished……
Imagine you’re at a meeting, and someone asks you how you perform a particular task each day. Let’s say you’re a sales rep for a fashion company that’s on the road a lot, and you get into the main office once a week to process new orders. Yes, I know it sounds as if we’re……
I believe that we are all creative beings, and I believe that women especially are constantly called upon to create, or to birth, so to speak. It’s in our DNA, it’s part of our nature, it’s one of those things that makes us human: our imagination and what we do with it. I also believe……
Multi-Passionate Are Told to Pick and Stick Being a multi-passionate person in today’s world can be difficult. Multi-passionate, creative women are often told that they need to pick a thing and stick to it. But as multi-passionate people know, there’s no real way to do that. At least, not without feeling like you’re leaving out……
I find that there’s a lot to learn from the creatives and artists among us. And although it’s certainly true that the creative life is not always an easy life, because making a living can be hard, or staying true to your heart might not always be that easy, I find that living a creative……
