As we prepare to enter 2025, we are given the gift of a fresh chapter, a blank canvas.
As I reflect on this, the highlight of the Holidays so far was seeing the remarkable new Dylan biopic, “A Complete Unknown.” I loved it!
My inspirational takeaway is to remember to have the courage to create on my own terms, no matter what. I hope you will do the same… even though it’s not always easy.
This year, I want to help you focus not just on lofty creative goals but on building systems and communities that support the creative life youβve dreamed of.
As James Clear wrote in Atomic Habits:
“You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.”
For me and our small very merry online band, the Creativity Sandbox Community is that kind of systemβa supportive space where joy fuels practice, community sparks accountability, and your authentic self shines through. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate.
What will you create this year? Letβs find out together. π΅π»ββοΈ
Here’s to a joyous, inspired, and wildly creative 2025! β¨
