The Creative Process
The work I do with girls often shows up in my personal life.
In two weeks I’ll be gathering with girls to talk about creativity and I’m feeling rather stuck right now in my own creative process.
I notice when I’m asked to do things out of my comfort zone (for me it’s paperwork like signing up to be a homeschooling vendor or making decisions about things like covid masking requirements and how much to charge) I tend to get anxious and avoidant.
I am holding space this week to acknowledge my feelings around the parts of my creativity that aren’t easy or fun but needed for me to take action so that I can share my creativity with more people.
Knowing that there are messy moments in the creative process is comforting. It gives me the courage to keep moving forward with my vision with gentle grace and compassion.
I think girls face similar feelings and it’s helpful to acknowledge this and let them know it’s normal. This realization often comes from talking about it among peers and realizing everyone else has similar feelings and thoughts. This awareness is what I’m hoping to bring with my workshops and gatherings.
