A Creative Reset

I’ve been craving a new creative rhythm lately— one that’s not reliant on perfect conditions. That’s free from compartmentalizing my mom life from my deep work sessions… I’ve been craving a rhythm that’s integrated into my life.

And as synchronicity would have it - a youtube video popped up yesterday that brought this very topic up.

I feel like I’ve lost the integration along the way.

…. Ultimately making my creative expression feel separate from my day to day life.

So this morning, I tried something new: a deep work session with my kids.

* It wasn’t perfect (I was interrupted often including the moment I’m typing this) but I still got to write.

They saw me in the practice. And even better- they got to feel the joy of deep creative flow too. THIS is what I want for myself, my kids and our family culture.

For them to not just hear about me creating when they’re with the sitter or their grandparents. But for them to see me create and to be invited into this rhythm and practice too — as a relationship, a shared curiosity, a lifestyle.

So today’s prompts offer a Creative Reset in how we think about + execute on our work. And in how we can more seamlessly weave our creative practices into our everyday lives.↓

The Summer Simplicity Challenge✨ is an invitation to pause, reflect and take aligned steps toward a slower, more intentional life within a community of women craving more ease, presence, and intentionality- just like you.
