Discovering Your Creativity
This week on the podcast and community we featured artist Jenna Deibel. Little did I know that she has known me for quite some time! You're going to love this candid and raw episode on the struggles and joys of motherhood and creativity!
This may be hidden beneath many layers of yourself and experiences that made you who you are. But let me ask you this: Do you feel like the person you were meant to be is who you are today? Unfortunately, creativity and the arts are discounted. They are not considered careers. They are not considered relevant. The most beautiful parts of ourselves were discounted, how messed up is that?
I want to see the day when a child shares with me that they want to be an artist just like me and not see their parents face cringe. Is there something terribly wrong with how I am living my life? Do I make this look hard or something? Because it’s easy, not easy in the way of everything just comes my way. But easy in the way that this is how I view the world, this is how my brain works, this is how I thrive. Don’t you want to thrive? Don’t you want to see your children thrive? Not only thrive but BE HAPPY! We all deserve to be happy. I am deserving of that and so are you. It is easier because it is worth it, every moment I am doing this I know it’s where I am meant to be, and I am totally obsessed with making it work! I was told by everyone that I could not write. My whole life, and up until about 5 years ago I believed them. After a long while of finding confidence in myself, and a lot of practice here I am writing to you and publishing my very first book, if I can do it SO CAN YOU!
What is it that you are totally obsessed with? What is it that makes you pull yourself out of your bed in the morning, what is it that makes you drag your tired ass across the finish line? Because that is your answer! And guess what, you can do more of it!
List 3 ways you can incorporate more of the “thing” you love into your being.
The more you integrate it into your life the more it will expand. Before you know it, it will be just something you DO!
