Silvia, these are beautiful images. Give yourself grace and breaks to just take in the nature in between to realign with your purpose.

Might I suggest doing a finger painting project for fun to get your perfectionist side to loosen up and remember the joy in the mess and not caring if it’s good or not. Cheap kids paints and a price of cardboard, no need for canvas even 🤪🥳💗 friendly suggestion only.

I am so thankful for you sharing. And the video...beautiful. And I love that you talk to your grains! Fantastic.

Sending love your way,

Rae

Thank you for sharing this part of your creative journey. I particularly felt a pang of understanding when I read 'I reminded myself of my magic and my persistence. I reminded myself that tomorrow is a new day, a new chance to start again and learn from my mistakes, hopefully', and that part of the journey is the learning and being challenged part. It reminds me that the good stuff rarely comes easily, and requires work. I'm feeling the self-doubt at the moment as I take the first steps into launching a mailing list and free workbook. It feels big to put myself out there, but I've been reminding myself that I don't have to get it *right* first time, and that I can't let my fears stop me from doing what I know deep down is the right thing to do.

Yes, I suppose we may often think that it should be easy once we know what we want to devote our energy to. But in reality, that's when the hard work begins. And also, allowing ourselves to be human and give ourselves permission to suck at first. Wishing you all the best for your launch. It'll be worth it!

Allowing ourselves to be human! Gosh yes, why do we find that so hard?
