CREATIVE MAGIC & JOY ✨EXPERIENCE✨

"This wasn't just a workshop . . . this was an experience." 

-Hannah Rothman

Are you yearning for more joy, simplicity, and power when it comes to your creative world?

Are you longing for a reconnection to the part of you that massively enjoys creativity?

Do you miss the magic of feeling creative in your everyday life?

I CREATED CREATIVE MAGIC & JOY EXACTLY FOR YOU. 

Adulthood gives us tons of reasons not to spend time in the space of creative joy. And they can sound very convincing. 

😓Some of the little lies adulthood sells us include: 

• You have to earn money! You have responsibilities! You can’t spend time on things that don’t produce income or value to others.
• You “gave up” on a creative dream, you aren’t good enough to even try anymore! How dare you even think about it. 
• People will think you are an idiot if you spend time on things that don’t turn out to be exceptional! (This is the one that’s loudest for me.) 
• You don’t even know where to begin!!!! 
• “I’m not very creative.” 
• “Pure joy is impossible to find.” 
• “I spend all my time being creative for work, I have nothing left for myself.” 

And yet . . . . and yet, you know deep within your bones that 💫being creative sparks joy within you, leaving you feeling so, so alive.💫

You know that you have a deep passion for getting lost in painting, or singing songs, composing your own music, art or poetry.  Maybe you truly know that being onstage is a place where you felt seen, and alive.

And it’s been awhile.

You've been craving to reconnect with that inner, childlike version of you that embraces wonder and magic of being creative.

You want to reconnect with that inner sense of joy.

Our creative energy is how we process our lives, how we make meaning as human beings, and how we move energy around! Do you remember singing loudly in your bedroom? Baking, doodling, crocheting or collaging? 

These are all ways in which your Creative Joy has served you before. 

And it is asking to serve you again.

Are you ready to answer the call?

Imagine yourself - in the very near future - feeling reconnected to that sense of joy and magic again. 

Step into that version of yourself. Who are you being? What are you discovering, making?  Which parts of you from the past are you inviting back in? 

IMAGINE . . . . 

• The sense of personal freedom from unlocking trapped energy 
• Feeling fully seen in your creative power and desires 
• Having fun sharing with people about the kind of creative magic you generated in your past and being honored for it 
• Feeling confident in sharing with others (and admitting to yourself) what your creative desires really are 
• Having the gumption to play and produce creative projects that remind you who you truly are!!! 
• Feeling integrated in your sense of creative past, present and future 
• Being back onstage, or in the rehearsal room, or art studio, simply because you deeply love to be there - no apologies or explanations.
• Using your creative talents to support other areas of your life

HOW, YOU ASK?? 

Let's break down the Process...

1. Open A PORTAL for past, present and future creative selves to come together - AS PART OF A SUPPORTIVE GROUP.
   - I’ll open the workshop with a carefully selected reading from my book, How to Be Creative in the Age of Digital Noise.
   
   
2. Relax into A GUIDED MEDITATION written and led by me to connect with your unique creative joyfulness. 
   - Get out of your logical mind and into your intuition! Guided meditation feels like a vacation for your senses! 
   
   
3. Look into your creative past, mine for gold, and CELEBRATE YOURSELF.
   - You will have a very strong sense of where your creative joy has lived in the past and use this to acknowledge your magic in a group. This is a vastly underrated step in transformational work. We will spend time acknowledging and celebrating the creative joy you have experienced in your past. 
   
   
4. Create A PERSONALIZED MAP of your creative life. 
   - You will have a deep sense of owning your own magic and its evolution throughout your life. You will also practice creative trust in this exercise by developing something completely unique to you that will guide you into your creative future. You’ll follow your intuition and use art supplies of your own choosing.
   
   
5. Empower a MAGICAL OBJECT that will carry you forward.
   - You will have an object that will inspire a sense of grown-up, creative joy and magic in your life moving forward, and understand the logistics of grown-up magic. Maybe you’ll go invent some yourself from here forward . . . 
   
   
6. Answer the question, “WHAT WILL CREATIVE JOY MEAN FROM HERE?"
   - How will life change from here? Who are you going to become? You'll walk away with an answer that you love.
   
   
7. 🤩🤩🤩BONUS: Receive a signed copy of How to Be Creative in the Age of Digital Noise in the mail following the workshop! 🤩🤩🤩Valued at $25 
   -Teehee! I love sending snail mail, this brings me such joy! As they say in video games (as far as I'm told) -- "this will help you on your journey!"

⏰ Before the experience, you might be . . . .  

• feeling nervous or anxious about your creativity 
• feeling stumped/blocked when it comes to your own personal magic 
• wanting someone to just SIT YOU DOWN and FORCE YOU TO BE CREATIVE FOR AWHILE - kinda like in art class in elementary school!
• curious about all the stuff I've been blabbering about on social media lately😅

💻 Waiting for the experience: 

• I'll email you with what to bring to the workshop and how to prep!
• For now, get signed up and just do some dreaming . . . what do you miss most about your creative child self?

🎨 After the experience. . .  

• You'll feel CONFIDENT AND INSPIRED to embrace your creative self 
• You'll have SPENT MEANINGFUL TIME being artistic and creative, and having a chance to CELEBRATE THOSE QUALITIES 
• You'll feel proud of yourself and grateful for giving yourself this retreat from the neverending story of adult life 
• You'll be so surprised and grateful for your own open heart and willingness to release the past and step into a new future🤩  

Sometimes, our past is in the way of us moving forward in life. 

But sometimes, it wants to come along for the next part of the ride! 🎢
