Creativity & Motherhood - how do we re-awaken our hobbies/passions?
See you tomorrow at 7pm cst!
Hello Loves,
I hope you had a wonderful weekend, filled with lots of joy, family time, and delicious food! Personally, I felt a little ‘hungover’ yesterday from the massive amount of socializing and cooking that I did over the weekend. I’ve had a slow start this morning, easing into the rhythms and tasks of the week.
Once again, this week’s call topic is arriving at the perfect time. We will be discussing Creativity and Motherhood. AKA, how/when/where do we re-awaken our creative passions while being full-time Mamas? This, of course, applies to those of us in the group who haven’t had little ones yet as well; making space for creativity to blossom is a lifelong pursuit.
A friend who is in a fairly new and wonderful relationship visited recently, her spark and creativity at an all-time high. I watched as she exuded this vibrant, radiant, creative mojo! All at once, it made me notice how distant I feel from my own sense of creation, and yet how deeeeply close I feel at the same time. Confusing, but true. Here I am holding in my arms a precious babe that my body literally created from nothing but love. Yet, my sewing machine is collecting dust, my Pinterest board is stagnant, and my free time for creative pursuits often feels very, very small.
It prompted me to ask myself -
OK, what is this new creative superpower that I now have?
What does this new depth of creative force look like/feel like in my life today?
How can I connect to the passions I loved before becoming a Mama, and merge them with the current woman that I am?
What would I like to spend my “free time” doing, if I had it?
How can I tap into my creativity in small, meaningful ways during my daily life?
How can I honor myself and notice what I have created?

I would love to hear your thoughts on our call tomorrow evening.
