It’s time 🍁
🌱 Have you reached midlife or older? (This can arrive sooner than you think).
🌱 Are you experiencing a creative renaissance, or are you wanting to?
🌱 Do you finally feel ready, but seek inspiration, encouragement, and community?
The creative path isn’t always easy. We all face doubts, Resistance, criticism (the worst perhaps coming from inside us), rejection, Imposter Syndrome, and isolation, as well as joy, excitement, enchantment, validation, and closure.
But by journeying together we can maintain momentum, and complete – and share – what we feel we’re put here on Earth to do. While we still can.
“Most of us have two lives. The life we live, and the unlived life within us.
Between the two stands Resistance.”
🌱 Steven Pressfield, The War of Art
