It's Time to Try!
Ever get a hankering to try something new but it feels a bit risky? I'm sharing a new Walk & Chat with Dawn video where I talk about just that subject! Just giving you a little bit of encouragement to take that first step!
I'm always here to cheer you on when you want to step out of your comfort zone. It can be so worthwhile to do something your heart is bringing to your attention. Do it for yourself! And Enjoy! Journaling Prompt: Reflect on the last time you tried to do something new. Did you feel intimidated? Excited? Anticipatory? How did it go? Did you do it more than once? Did it hit the sweet spot and end up something you do all the time now? Detail this in your journal and celebrate anew!

Voices Either Bring Clarity or Confusion
Welcome back to Beginnings! Today I am sharing a new Walk & Chat with Dawn video where I share a word about External Voice and the impact they can have on your decision making. The question to ask is: what voice am I listening to and is it bringing clarity or confusion?
The Higher Self is a reliable source of wisdom & direction. How do you know when the voice you're hearing is a Higher Self? You will know whether it brings clarity or confusion! So Listen carefully and Proceed with confidence! Journaling Prompt: Detail a recent time when you heard your Higher Self give you direction but you went with an external voice instead. What was the result of that decision? Were you satisfied? Now detail a recent time when you listened to your Higher Self rather than following an external voice. What was the result? Any different? Did you feel more confident as a result? It's Time to Celebrate!
Hello and Welcome back to Beginnings! I've got another Walk & Chat with Dawn video for you with a focus on Celebrating Your Successes. I share my POV on this subject and some suggestions on how to go about it, keeping self care in mind.

Hello and welcome back to Beginnings.
I've got another Walk & Chat with Dawn, this time, Indoors, since it was raining out. In this episode, I talk about my spiritual deck, my inspiration board, and the importance of making steps as small as possible to make it doable. You're welcome to leave a comment about what you want to do next, and what small step would make it doable for you! Let's celebrate our progress together in community. Journaling Prompt: What activity or goal have you set for yourself that requires prerequisite action? What small step can you take toward that goal so you can do it now if you wanted to?

Hello and welcome back to Beginnings and to another Walk & Chat with Dawn video. In this one I share some nature based bird inspiration that I just had to include so you can see it too; plus I discuss some changes I am making with my sketchbook practice, with a bit of visual history of what I've been doing for several years and what I'm doing now. And I am having so much fun!
So, do join me for another Walk & Chat and you're welcome to share what changes you decided to make creatively or just with life in general. Sometimes we get so used to doing things a certain way, we don't realize we put ourselves into an unnecessary box that we can break out of at any time. We just need to be aware of it! Yes! Journaling Prompt: What box (creative or otherwise) have you been putting yourself in? Are you bored? Frustrated? Stuck? What step can you make to create change that can make a difference for you? Brainstorm in your journal what you would like to do instead. Take courage and break out of that box! I wish you well in your Beginning! What Will You Resurrect Today?
