Stop Self Criticism & Gain Confidence

Self Criticism is making you doubt your abilities as an artist, but you can become fearless!

Along with the completion of a project comes a wave of doubt and fear that this won't be a sustainable endeavor.
I've made a commitment to pray big, to think big and to dream big this these last few days.

Coming out of a dark, discouraging and painful wee

Coming out of a dark, discouraging and painful week, I need to have a plan.
That plan needs to be concrete and specific, manageable, doable in a timely manner, so it is.

It's a beautiful thing to take some time and recognize the journey.

Everyone has their own talents and gifts when it comes to creating.
Yes, there are a lot of people who can do what I do. But that doesn't stop me, and it shouldn't stop you.

Some things are worthy of a closer look.
I can't count the number of hours that I worked on each of these jewels. It was very tedious and stressful, but I am so proud of the way they turned out.

I posted a video from another artist in my stories

I posted a video from another artist in my stories today. Go take a listen, it's so key. And wow, it really spoke to me.
It's so important to strip away all the things that you think you should be doing as an artist.
I did so many different creative endeavors before I realized that I could take my number one passion and create something that others could appreciate.
It's so important to lean into what you love and narrow that down so specifically that you find yourself naturally doing it without even thinking.
If you want to find that special something that allows you to do exactly what you love - and improve your confidence and overcome fear in the process - I would love to work with you.
Click the link in the bio that says, "Work with me," and let's set up a time to talk.

I've been avoiding finishing this prototype project for my kimono style robe.
I am afraid that it won't turn out the way I want and I won't be able to sell it.
I'm afraid that people aren't going to like it.
I'm afraid that I don't have the right marketing skills, etc, etc..
Well, I'm making myself do it today. I can do this. I can make this dream a reality, even though it's been uphill the whole way. 🤷‍♀️
