Description

What's the difference between those who struggle with finding inspiration for their art and those who are receiving new ideas regularly? Between those who are lit up by inspiration and those who can't find it? Artist Dates.

Perhaps your creative spark is simply suffocating beneath the weight of all your responsibilities.

For us to blossom and flourish, it requires taking the time to refill your cup, and we do this with what Julia Cameron calls Artist Dates.

Whether you have a packed full schedule, or are in a season with time on your hands, we all do better when we carve out a little space for new scenery, new stimulation for the senses, and a fresh perspective to clear our heads.

Julie Cameron is convinced that the Artist Date is the antidote to a lack of inspiration, and that the Muse isn't only for the smart, talented, or well-connected. She wants to support you when you're in the midst of your messy middle and life's responsibilities, and that's exactly what I'm sharing with you today.
