Do you wish you could lead a more creative and fulfilling life, but don't know where to start or are scared to take the first steps? Are you already on the creative journey but feeling a bit lost or overwhelmed?

This class addresses these questions and introduces an approach I call Mindful Growth. Mindful Growth is the practice of pursuing our life's meaning, connecting with our creative spark, and realizing our true potential in a more mindful way. We are not about that burnout culture life.

I speak from personal experience, going from a big firm corporate lawyer to a full-time independent artist and content creator. As I've gone through the trials and challenges of this path, I've thought a lot about what it takes to live your dream life. It's not easy, of course, but it's absolutely possible and worth it. 

Your life is your story, and you are in more control of the narrative than you think. Let's start to think about how we'd like our story to go. 

This Skillshare features a free downloadable Class Workbook that will guide you through the exercises we'll do together in class. We'll address thought exercises as well as specific practical advice on common hurdles, including:

  • How to find and process your inspirations
  • How to clarify your "Why"
  • How mindfulness and the creative pursuit go hand in hand
  • How to create a learning plan for your journey
  • How to address time and money challenges
  • How to deal with common fears 
  • How to find your alignment with your purpose

The free class workbook download under the Class Project section under attachments!

I look forward to seeing you in class!
