    Shifts in Mindsets

    Lent has already begun.

    The 100-Day Project is underway.

    I am also doing The Artist’s Way.

    This is not a warm-up.

    This is not preparation.

    This is the work.

    I am in it.

    I am writing this because I know myself.

    What stays in my head stays unfinished.

    What goes on paper becomes a vow.

    What is spoken becomes real.

    The Artist’s Way is my daily return.

    The 100 days are my discipline.

    Lent is my refinement.

    All three are one intention:

    focus.

    This is not about reinvention.

    It is not about performance.

    It is about consistency.

    It is about becoming the woman who does what she says she will do.

    I am showing up.

    Pages written.

    Project created.

    Spirit examined.

    Life throws curveballs.

    Focus adjusts.

    Feet stay planted.

    Eyes stay locked.

    This is my turn at bat.

    No waiting for perfect timing.

    No waiting for better conditions.

    I am already moving.

    I am already committed.

    And I am holding myself to it.

    100 Days what’s in a Doodle

    For my 100 days, I will be allowing the pen to flow via doodles.

    What that means is allowing my pen to meet paper and create a kind of dance.

    There’s no need for it to be perfect.

    No obligation to share every day.

    What will fill your 100 days?

    Just five or ten minutes of being

    Truthfully, I am not an artist when it comes to drawing.

    connecting pen to paper without words, letting the movement lead.

    I’ve seen many people share that they’ll be using oil paints, watercolors, and remarkable artistic talents. I admire that deeply, but that isn’t me.

    I almost stepped back because of that.

    I am poetic. Writing is my language. When it comes to visual art, I’ve always been the admirer.

    But when I reflected on what this project actually represents, I realized something important:

    art was never about the outcome.

    It was about giving myself a space to create.

    That is why I became a writer.

    And now, with this 100 Day Project approaching, I’m choosing to give myself that same freedom again.

    to create without pressure, without performance, without expectation.

    Just pen.

    Paper.

    And permission.

    Will you join the 100 Day Project?

    The 100 Day Project is a global, free creative project that anyone can join.

    ( find out more info HERE)

    The idea is simple:

    choose one creative practice and return to it every day for 100 days.

    There are no requirements around skill level, materials, or outcomes.

    Your practice can be anything writing, drawing, movement, photography, noticing, or something entirely your own.

    How it works:

    Choose one thing. Something small enough to repeat daily and flexible enough to grow with you. Commit to a short daily practice. Five minutes is enough. More is welcome, but not required.

    Show up for 100 days. Not to perfect your craft, but to build a relationship with it. Share if you want. Sharing is optional.

    Many people document their process publicly, others keep it entirely private.

    The project isn’t about productivity or performance.

    It’s about consistency, curiosity, and allowing creativity to exist without pressure.

    The next cycle of the 100 Day Project begins on February 22 (2/22).

    Will you join in?

    The days leading up to it are a preparation period a chance to reflect, explore ideas, and decide what kind of creative practice you want to commit to.

    Tomorrow, I’ll share what my own 100 days will look like.
