I AM Truth Cards




Do you want to be the truth-teller of your story?

Deep within, there is a story yearning to be reclaimed.  Perhaps, you’ve carried it around, assuming it was yours to own.  Many of us hold on tightly to our stories, allowing them to define us, and limiting us from living our most authentic life.

Reclaiming your truth story begins with “I AM statements. The process of creating 
“I AM” Truth Cards is an inspiring, uplifting, and creative journey to transform your most empowering, positive and uplifting story.

• Be guided to release your inner critic and discover clarity during a restorative meditation, and an Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) group session with other like-hearted women.


• Reconnect to your inner voice and receive the gift of being heard by “reflecting” and “mirroring” with a workshop partner.


• Open your heart and honor your renewed story as you create a series of 8-10 artsy and meaningful “I AM” Truth Cards by using stamping, colored makers, paint, and pastels. 





During this process, you will reclaim and reconnect with your inner truth. Your “I AM” Truth Cards will act as your personal compass, leading you in the direction of the life you desire to live.


Join us on Thursday, July 27th ~~ from 7 until 9 pm 
At Sungates in Wheeling
$25 (by 7/22) or $30.00 at the door

Reverb14 ~ Day one ~ What I know for certain



I am participating in Kat McMnally's Reverb14.  During the month of December, I will be inspired to blog or journal from the writing prompts that will be delivered to my in-box.  The main reason for participating in Reverb 14 is to feel fully supported in saying farewell to 2014 with grace and ease, and welcoming 2015 with vibrancy and positive intention. If you'd like to play along with me, you can sign up here. 


Welcome to the first day of Reverb14.
Here is the prompt I received.

Today, I invite you to take a quiet moment to consider:

What can you say right now with certainty?


The Chicago Botanic Gardens  ~  Eydie Kugler 2013


  • Time passes quicker than I can wrap my arms around it.
  • We become the stories we tell and believe.  
  • We can change the stories we tell and believe.
  • I am loved deeply.  And, I love deeply.
  • I carry a wish deep in my heart for my daughter to be supported, loved, protected, nourished, and to discover her North star.
  • I am supported and love by my husband.  I support and love my husband.
  • I feel supported by my creative and spiritual circles, and feel grateful for each and every connection.
  • I still believe lies that are not true about me.
  • My Divine, my Angels, and my Spiritual guides are always available to me for my highest good.
  • Change is constant.  Transformation is on-going.  Nothing stays the same.
  • Sugar is addicting.
  • Uncertainly is a part of life.

What do you know for certain?
I'd love for you to share.

Are you breathing it in?





Are you breathing in
the beauty of it all? 
Really breathing it in,
with deep belly breaths. 
The kind of belly breaths that
nourish your soul, and 
fill your veins with pure light
to reflect your inner truth. 
Are you breathing it deep into
your essence and sharing
that shine with others who seek it?

Are you fully awake 
to the divine gifts from mother earth? 
Not just the leaves that fill 
you with their healing energies. 
Also, the leaves that no longer
branch out, as they begin to release
and let go, effortlessly 
grounding themselves, until a fierce 
wind swoops them up for 
one last dance and twirl, before
fluttering down to mother earth.  

If only, we could be more 
like the leaves, 
effortlessly 
letting go, releasing, being grounding.

Remember to breath in
this golden-plumed, fire lush of autumn. 
Be aware, be wake.  For the beauty
of this season is about to peak. 
Take it all in, not for granted, not for a second. 
You know what “they” say about blinking.
For it too, will become a memory of what was. 
All it takes, is one strong stormy rainfall
for the tree to bare all.

Capture it while you can. 
Don’t bury it, don’t’ dull it. 
Allow it to shine.

And when you take in
the beauty of it all. 
Breath in 
all the wisdom 
and weave it deep through 
the core of your soul.



Are you wanting to connect with other women
where you can experience creative play, find inner peace and calm, 
and open to new possibilities?

Come join us and explore 
the "Wisdom Tree" 
at our next Sacred Art Circle
on Thursday, October 9th
from 10 til noon
$18

You will be guided during an inspiring meditation, 
followed by a creative expression experience 
to free your true voice, connect with your inner source, 
and discover sacred messages from your higher self.

You can register or ask questions by emailing
workshops@whatwecreate.net

No Apology Zone


No Apology Zone

Apologizing can be a very common practice for some of us. Too often, we apologize for being quiet, loud, late, early, big, small, introverted, extroverted, confident, shy, creative, inadequate, and brilliant … and the list goes on and on, and on again.  

In essence, we apologize for being our perfect self. 



I declare this post a "no apology" zone.  I have gracefully come back to this space after leaving it dormant for over a year, and I will not apologize.  I will not make accuses or create a story for you.  I have shown up to be present, and I welcome you back to this space.

We have a lot of catching up to do, and I know there is a lot of goodness for us to share.  I am so happy we are here together ~ with absolutely no apologies.

I have missed you, and, within time, I am so excited to share all that is good with you, my friend. 

Hang out here for as long as you'd like, and take a peak here, and here, to see my autumn offerings.

One Little Word ~ Blog Hop ~ Beginnings


I am very excited to participate in the One Little Word blog hop for 2013.  The One little Word was created by Ali Edwards.   Each month, Ali provides us with a prompt, or an assignment that encourages a stronger connection to our OLW.

My intention for signing up for Ali’s class is to make a stronger commitment to my OLW, so that I can cultivate its positive energy into my life each and everyday.  

My word for 2013 is CHOOSE.

Although I may not always be able to control the situations or circumstances that occur in my world, I do have the power to CHOOSE how I react, how I feel, and how I want to show myself to others.  

My word holds an abundance of meaning for me.  When I see my word, or whisper my word, I tend to put an “I” before it. 


I believe words hold very strong vibrations. For years, I have been embellishing words on items I wear, hold, or carry with me each and every day.  This is a pendant I am wearing NOW.

 to be see by the world


 Back side of pendant
 worn close to the heart

I'll share more of my wearable art with you next week, so please come back to take a peek.

This month we are focusing on setting intentions and listing some of the actions we want to embrace for the rest of the year.  I love how my word offers so much flexibility and possibilities. For January, I "choose" new beginnings.  To let go of what was and welcome what will be. 

Here is a glimpse of the intention cards I made for 2013. 

I CHOOSE   New Beginnings
I CHOOSE  Self care
I CHOOSE  Joy
I CHOOSE  Stillness
I CHOOSE  Enoughness
I CHOOSE  Trust
I CHOOSE  to be Brave
I CHOOSE  Creativity
I CHOOSE  Awareness
I CHOOSE  to Let go
I CHOOSE  Gratitude
I CHOOSE  to Receive

















Thanks so much for stopping by and allowing me to share the goodness of my OLW.  I will  share more during the weeks and months to come of how my word has impacted my life.  

I want to thank Lee of The Linar Studio for organizing this blog hop.  If you are intererested and would like to participate, you can sign up for a spot in Ali’s class.  

Please remember to comment, I'd love to know your thoughts.  Also, stop by the other participants in this blog hop, I know you will find amazing inspiration.  Karen is next on the list and is waiting for you to visit with her.

So far the participants in the February Hop include:

There will always BE




Dear Precious YOU,

There will always be MORE to WANT
There will always be MORE to KNOW
There will always be MORE to GIVE
There will always be MORE to SAY
There will always be MORE to DO

Take a deep breath
let go of expectations
and realize
in this moment


YOU ARE ENOUGH

Transitioning



They stand strong and still
with arms branching out
dancing to the rhythm of the wind
as they whisper ancient wisdom
we are too busy to hear.

When did this lushness morph into
shades of maize, melon,
mango tango and marvelous magenta?

Did this burst of color
ignite like the soft glow
on the Sabbath
quietly and gently
while our eyes are closed
or did it blaze out
uncontrollable, unconfined and wild?

If only we could be more 
like the trees
with roots reaching deep into the earth
arms reaching up to the heavens
wisdom allowing us
to intuitively transition
from season to season
without questioning or doubting
when to be still and dormant
and when to branch out and open
to new possibilities.

With each season
they know
when there is nothing
left to do
but just be.

It’s in this moment 
they allow
their leaves to detach
and effortlessly let go.


Autumn is the season of harvest, of letting go, of decluttering, and clearing.  This is different then the Spring cleaning. Spring cleaning is about making space for the abundance that is hoped to come; autumn cleaning is about ridding oneself of what is no longer needed. It’s about holding onto only what is essential.

Nature is signaling that it’s time to let go of the things, thoughts, patterns and behaviors that weigh us down and diminish our light.

As we watch leaves fluttering to the ground, we are reminded that nature's cycles are mirrored in our lives. Autumn is a time for letting go.

What are you holding on to? Can you let it go?
