Seasons Greetings!

Thank you for being part of the Inner Creative community this year.

It’s been such a privilege to be a part of your creative and, most recently, kindness journey – whether it’s inspiring you through the blog to bring more creativity or kindness into your everyday life or work practices, or unlocking your intuition to get more insight into your business at one of my visual planning workshops or presentations.

 

I love seeing those ‘aha’ moments when everything clicks into place.

In gratitude, here are my Christmas inspired mandalas for you.
They are based on the Christmas Star – but no matter how you celebrate the end of this year, may it remind you to shine like the brilliant star you are.

Stick’s been pushing me through thick and thin.

*Interesting when I created the above image for this blog I made a Freudian slip on the blog title – but decided to keep it because sometimes that’s a better reflection of how I treat myself 🙁 

 

I know that Stick means well, but I’m getting a bit tired of Stick. In fact, I’m finding Stick’s powers are starting to wane. Stick doesn’t motivate me so well any more. It’s hard to keep getting beaten when you’re already lying on the ground.

 

So I’ve decided to say goodbye to Stick.
