You’re Invited: Creative Dream BREAKTHROUGH
Dictionary.com says a BREAKTHROUGH is:
- an act or instance of removing or surpassing an obstruction or restriction; the overcoming of a stalemate.
A Creative Dream BREAKTHROUGH is about:
- life-altering shifts in perspective and vision.
- heart-melting moments that change how you experience yourself, your life and your dreams.
- energy tanks being filled-to-the-brim with Creative Dream SUPERFUEL.
- doubts turned into trust.
- obstacles dismantled.
- genius leveraged.
- excuses seen for what they are, and retired.
A breakthrough would be nice + helpful right about now, yes?
A breakthrough can help you:
Get past that inner voice of doubt. Finally start blogging, or knitting, or doing whatever it is that you really do want to do, but keep putting off.
Map out your next steps. And understand what you need to do next, to break through to the next level with your dreams.
Find sweet, delicious CLARITY! A breakthrough clears away (internal) fogginess and (external) confusion.
Step the heck out of that comfort zone (in the most comfortable way possible).
Supercharge the power, magic + infinite creative potential within.
Simply put, a breakthrough helps you get to the other side of whatever it is you’re facing right now.
How We’ll Cultivate the Conditions for Your BREAKTHROUGH:
We’ll start with a (virtual, on-the-phone) Creative Playdate: 90 minutes of focused creative treasure-mapping, creative play, alchemy, magic-making and miracle-summoning designed to open the door to your personal breakthrough.
You can attend live or use the recordings. Either way, it will be awesome.
Then you’ll get a (short!) email every day for the next 30 days. Think healing art, supercharged affirmations, heart-soaked reminders to stay in the magic of your breakthrough, delivered via email.
Imagine checking your email and being DELIGHTED by what’s there!
It’s a gleeful creative adventure and soulful immersion in the art of CREATING your own BREAKTHROUGH.
What you get:
- 90 minute Treasure-Mapping Creative Playdate, live on the phone plus a recording you can play with again and again. If you can attend live, there will be the opportunity to be coached + supported through your breakthrough process. And if you can’t attend live, you’ll play along with the recordings and discover that witnessing someone else’s breakthrough process is magically enlightening.
- Playbooks to support your Creative Dream Breakthrough Process. There is no “Three Easy Steps To Your Ideal Breakthrough” workbook or anything. There is a ton of support for cultivating the conditions for a breakthrough. There are processes that are helpful. There are gentle tools for dismantling resistance to breakthrough. And all of this can be done in a spirit of delight, play and wild creative abandon. This is what the playbooks will cover.
- 30 days of gorgeous daily messages. The emails spark + inspire the energy of the Creative Dream BREAKTHROUGH to stay with you, all month long. This helps you activate, magnify or simply revel in the amazingness of YOUR breakthrough process.
- Check-in on Oct. 17. This will be a casual group call, where you can ask questions, get additional support and be coached through whatever is you need to get coached through.
What You Need:
- Journal plus whatever art supplies you want to play with (markers, glitter glue, collage – whatever floats your boat!).
- Computer or smart phone with internet access to receive secret missions and download playdate materials.
- Phone with a long distance plan (you’ll be calling a US number), or you can play with the recordings.
- 90 minutes for your crazy-magic treasure-mapping adventure. Optional: more creative playtime afterwards for exploring and expanding your map.
- Less than 5 minutes a day for enjoying delightfully inspiring emails.
The first (BETA!) session of Creative Dream BREAKTHROUGH is on October 3.
Regular price: $99
BETA price is only: $49
There are no refunds.
Once you’ve registered, you may experience second thoughts. This is normal! A breakthrough is a big, scary thing to the parts of you who want to maintain the status quo.
Your inner critics would like you to be as stuck as possible, so they’ll try to convince you that this is stupid, and it won’t work.
Stand your ground, sugarpie. You got this. You’re ready for this. And you’re going to love it.

This post, and the whole 30 day journal challenge, is a part of my free art journal class.

Creative Journal Day 10: Money Journaling
This post, and the whole 30 day journal challenge, is a part of my free art journal class.
Today is my monthly meeting with money, in my journal.
As you’ll see, I don’t sit down with a pile of cash or with cash flow projections – money journaling is a soul to soul meeting, to nurture my inner relationship with money.
Doing this every month is crazy helpful.? Even when it feels like nothing is happening, you ARE developing your inner relationship with money by spending time with it like this, and this WILL open up new possibilities for what you and money can create together.
The Creative with Money Kit that I mentioned is only available inside the Creative Dream Circle.
My money journaling:

Creative Journal Day 9: How To Cure Crankies (Or Anything Else!) Using Your Journal
This post, and the whole 30 day journal challenge, is a part of my free art journal class.
The downside of doing a 30 day video challenge is that it means that I will have to do a video on My Crankiest Day Of The Month.? But, of course, this is an opportunity to share how to cure crankies using your journal, AKA art journaling for healing, so here it is:
Art journaling for healing is one of my favourite things.
Once you get into the flow with it, it’s beautiful and soothing and gentle and effective.? But gentle with yourself as you experiment with it, it can take some to get used to giving space to how you’re actually feeling, and explore more about what you actually need.

Creative Journal Day 8: How To Use Your Journal As a Dream-Growing MACHINE
This post, and the whole 30 day journal challenge, is a part of my free art journal class.
Manifesting Dreams into Reality: This is what it’s all about, right?
Today I sat down with my journal and promptly stumbled into a really common pitfall when it comes to using an art journal as a tool for manifesting dreams into reality… so I immediately stopped to record this video.
One thing I forgot to add to this is that I didn’t mean to say to NEVER write about what’s happening right now in your journal… stream of consciousness journaling practices like Julia Cameron’s morning pages can be super helpful!
What I did mean is that it is helpful to have a separate journal as your creative dream journal, where you can keep your attention focused on holding the vision.
Holding the vision for long enough to bring the dream to life is not easy.
Having a journal where this is ALL you do can really help build up that energy.

Creative Journal Day 7: Intuitive Journaling
This post, and the whole 30 day journal challenge, is a part of my free art journal class.
Living your dreams is about living your truth.
So learning how to HEAR your inner voice and learning to navigate by your internal compass is a huge part of bringing a dream to life.? That’s what I’m talking about today!
Intuitive journaling is about listening.
It may feel frustrating or like nothing is happening, but usually you have to get into the practice of listening before you start to hear anything.
Your intuitive voice is there – I promise.? It’s just that if you haven’t spent a lot of time listening to it, it takes some time to start to be able to hear it.

Also – we’ve got whole class on making THE BEST Inspiration Cards in the Creative Dream Circle.

Creative Journal Day 6: What To Do With ALL of Those Creative Ideas
This post, and the whole 30 day journal challenge, is a part of my free art journal class.
Too many ideas?
Creative people get a LOT of ideas!
And it’s too easy to jump on the inspiration train and invest (your heart, your time, your energy, your attention, your money) in an idea BEFORE you even know for sure if it’s going to bring you closer to where you want to be.
Processing your ideas, getting to know them, being clear on where they came from, what qualities and experiences they can bring into your life and if they’re going to help you get to where you want to be is a valuable process.
Finding clarity about all of this is PURE MAGIC.
It saves time and energy and potential heartbreak.? It helps you shift through too many ideas to find those absolute gems – the best ideas for you to pursue right now.
That’s what I was doing in my art journal today.

Creative Journal Day 5: The Magic of Grounding + Integration
This post, and the whole 30 day journal challenge, is a part of my free art journal class.
Today I’m talking about the importance of pausing, resting + integrating and how that is NOT the same as “taking a break”.
This is part of what makes journaling CREATIVE (ala CREATING your WORLD).
Your art journal practice is going to bring you insights and ideas and when it does you need to give yourself time and space to process, ground and integrate or else nothing is going to change.

This post, and the whole 30 day journal challenge, is a part of my free art journal class.
Dealing with overwhelm is not fun.
As a HSP it’s something that I am very familiar with, so of course I have come up with a way to handle it in my art journal.
There’s lot in today’s video:
- How your journal can help handle overwhelm.
- What to do when you don’t know what you want or what your dream is.
- Uncovering + activating more gifts of disappointment.
- Changing gears.

Creative Journal Day 3: What to do when you feel too sad & hopeless to journal
This post, and the whole 30 day journal challenge, is a part of my free art journal class.
I knew at some point in this I would want to talk about how it’s important that your journal be a space that welcomes all feelings – that there’s nothing wrong with you if you feel sad or hopeless or whatever. We all feel this way sometimes.
I was hoping it would be later on in the 30 days, but here it is today, sad journaling:
My favourite journaling tools on days like this: crystals + essential oils.
