Wishcasting Wednesday: How do you wish to be Brave?

How do you wish to be Brave?
This one made me think, I wish to be brave in putting myself out there and living my dream and building my businesses. Being okay with rejection learning how to not take it personal because it's not and overcoming fear. I wish to be brave!

Weekly Intention: Physical

My weekly intention came to me during my morning pages, a time I spend journalling immediately after I wake up. I write out 3 pages of whatever is in my head at the time. Helps sort out thoughts ideas clears my head for the day. Thank you to Andrea from ABC creativity for this weekly prompt. Physical for me means more activity, do my Yoga and go to the gym take a walk and take a class. Move more a lot more.

Since I've been doing a weekly intention I also started listing weekly goals. Most weeks I do pretty well some I don't but it's more a guideline than a requirement. It really sets up my week and my weeks have been great since I've been doing this. So many blessings!

& Speaking of blessings I am doing the Sparkle 31days Sparkle by Jamie Ridler it is fantastic and only 5minutes a day. Here is my day 3 and my inspiration for it.

Weekly Review!

                                                            My week in review!

weekly goals
Not a week to accomplish my set goals. I did like 3 things on this list but that is okay they are not required just a loose guideline. My intention was to rejuvenate and that was definitely accomplished. Long baths candles mediation and lots of sleep and a home pedicure and facial and eyebrow threading. Quiet time alone and a reset of my long term plans and goals and some time to Sparkle!




Closet cleaning done! Just have to figure out what to do with the clothes I am not keeping.

Wishcasting Wednesday: How do you wish to Sparkle?

                                          How do you wish to Sparkle?

Thank you Jamie Ridler for the prompt and for Wishcasting Wednesdays. I wish to sparkle thru my photography which brings me joy. I just posted my 1st ad for my photography business. I finally accepted that it is my path. I kept putting it off and saying no I'm not good enough and there are so many other better photographers but I realized there are and there will always be but they are not me and not my style. I will sparkle in the joy that pursuing my passion will bring.

weekly Intention: Take Action! & Happy Birthday to me week

Every Monday now especially for the past 2 months I have been setting a weekly intention. I start off with morning pages, a meditation then I make a list of weekly goals. It has been a very productive practice and I have really seen results.


Last week I was participating in the Right Brain Business Plan video summit and it has helped to inspire me in making a plan and taking action. Taking action is just what I am doing this week.

Wishcasting Wednesday: What gifts to you wish to share?

                                What gifts do you wish to share?

The back cover of my Art Journal, covered in old hotel stickers.
This is a hard one, what gifts do I wish to share? Well I've been told I'm a great stylist I think had I pursued it, life may have been very different. No time to dwell on that though because I didn't, fear got the best of me I thought it would be better to pursue something more important more meaningful than clothes. Funny thing I never really did pursue something more important. I let fear take over all of my gifts and put them to the side. My gifts, are they my gifts or my passions what are my gifts? I can talk to almost anyone, I can cook very well when I want to, I can live out of a backpack or suitcase for over a month, I can shop from open to close and still have enough energy for drinks after and then for the fashion show after that. I passionately love to travel and I love to share my travel experiences and equal to travel is photography. I have loved fashion passionately since I was young. I remember my first favorite outfit and the first time I styled an outfit. Okay so what gifts do I wish to share....

How about the gift of me and what I am passionate about and now if only I can come up with a plan to share them that will generate an income for me that will enable me to donate significant amounts of money to organizations that help women. The gift of me!

Weekly Intention: Balance

                                                                       Balance
My supplies and lifeline bottom Art Journal, current read, morning pages journal, calender, my business planner, my ipod and my laptop. Oh can you tell I love stickers and graphics.
My weekly ritual as it has now become is to set my weekly intention after meditating to Andrea Schroeder's Intention setting meditation video. It's perfect and her voice is so calm I just love it, it really sets my week up on a positive note.

During my meditation Balance came to mind, I know I have been trying to get a balance between focusing on my health. How I eat and how much exercise I am getting being on weight watchers has become more of a chore then a goal. I know that is because I've been so focused on my work. Trying to grow my businesses it's been my sole focus it seems. I have made time for some creative pursuits but not a lot. I think my intention is telling me to balance my calendar with time for health, creative, spiritual, work, and nothing. Balance is key this week.

Weekly Review!

This week was the 2nd week I wrote out my weekly goals on my giant news print pad and taped them to the wall. I checked them off when I accomplished one. Here it is...

Okay they are hard to see but basically my week went very well. Did my yoga but only went to the gym once. Made more then 2 new connections and delivered my Avon books twice and meditated 4 times and grew my businesses in by getting 4new client orders one new home in the other business. I took my vitamins 5days and did my morning pages 5days out of 7 and cleaned my house but it doesn't look like it anymore and used my camera for some leisurely photography when I was at the laundermat. It was a very productive week and I am thankful for all that I am given and all that I have. I'm looking forward to the coming week and setting up my goals and seeing what the week brings.

Wishcasting Wednesday: What limits do you wish to set?

                                                What Limits do you wish to Set?

                          Limits of my intuition, if my gut says no, then my mouth says no.

I've been listening to the The Right Brain Business Plan video summit and in just 3 sessions I feel I've learned so much and my main nugget is listening to my intuition my gut. I just ordered the book and I'm so excited.

I love Wishcasting Wednesday and really appreciate Jamie Ridler for this. It's a great part of my week and always seems to fit into my weekly and monthly intention. This week is care and to truly care for myself, I need to set limits. Thanks Jamie for such a timely wishcasting question. I truly appreciate all you do and how you have brought this Wishcasting community together.
