I'd like to share 5 distilled principles that transformed how I inhabit my business -- as a living ecosystem that centers my creative energy, above all else. learning, evolving, and embodying these principles took me so many years. I'll share the journey and the hard lessons I learned in the process, and map these principles onto a 12 week itinerary for my new course, Digital Abundance -- as an alchemical process for deep re-alignment and re-imagining of what your business can become, this next season. 🧧 ⁠⁠Digital Abundance⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -referencedmy business is a hammock I weave by handunderworld business practicesmoney juice cleanse~💌 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠receive ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠my newsletters⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🌳 explore my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠courses⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠✨ visit my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠web world⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠

today, I'm explicitly naming the paradigm shift that changed everything for me -- the belief that my creative energy is the source of my material abundance. my creativity is not a liability, a luxury, or a burden; it is my greatest resource. I'll be naming the wound -- I'll share the story of working through shame, exile, and the long, lonely journey of risking everything for a vision. I'll tell you how I came to the idea of "the artist entrepreneur," how I realized that my artist child needed to grow up, and hold the chariot reins of my life. we'll explore 4 forms of abundance -- inner,d art, web worlds, and money -- and how they feed into each other. 🧧 ⁠Digital Abundance⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ starts March 16 -referencedthe way of the artist entrepreneurthe art of finding my pathwhy worldbuilding is wealthbuilding~💌 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠receive ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠my newsletters⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🌳 explore my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠courses⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠✨ visit my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠web world⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠

when thinking (or talking) about my business, there's at least twenty words I don't use -- many of them super basic, like "marketing," "sales," "landing page," "launch," or "productivity" ... even "goals." I've rewritten my own creative business dictionary -- because language shapes our relationship to our worlds. I'll list the words, and tell you what words I use instead. rewriting my language helps me recreate my entire paradigm -- to create a business that values agency over manipulation, ecosystem webs over linear metrics -- and grow a system that I actually love, and want to live in. 🧧 Digital Abundance⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ starts March 16 -referencedtranscendence of the productivity addictsharing space camp build a labyrinth, not a funnel~💌 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠receive ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠my newsletters⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🌳 explore my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠courses⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠✨ visit my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠web world⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠

I love making art in the void, and I've felt called to build a community. this calling is probably precisely because I have such a complicated relationship with community. I've run away from them. I've chosen self-exile. I've swung from hyper-independence to over-responsibility. in this episode, I'll share how I'm thinking of shaping my community as creative companionship, bounded by shared questing. I'll explore my four guiding values for a community -- like caring for a garden, weaving a dream catcher, or making an infinite feast. A community can be a living creative practice that feeds our inner worlds. *🦋 join ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Labyrinth Library⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, starting Feb 16🧧 explore ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Digital Abundance⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, starting March 16-referenceda hermit growing creative communitymake art in the void make art for no audience~💌 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠receive ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠my newsletters⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🌳 explore my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠courses⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠✨ visit my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠web world⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠

today is an atmospheric map for our slow transition from winter into spring — through the archetypes of Pisces, Aries, and Taurus. we'll explore how to work with these energies in deepening into the creative life.I'll share why thinking in seasons has become such an important practice for me, and my intentions for this coming season, along with personal life context. we'll dive into the three archetypes and their grounding theme words: Pisces (dreaming), Aries (instinct), Taurus (embodying), as well as the questions they invite us to contemplate. this itinerary is the 12 week map for season 2 of Labyrinth Library, which opens Monday.*🦋 join ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Labyrinth Library⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠,🧧 explore ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Digital Abundance⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, starting March 16🧃 take 7 days of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Money Juice Cleanse⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠~💌 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠receive ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠my newsletters⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🌳 explore my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠courses⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠✨ visit my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠web world⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠

this is about trusting in the work you need, and how creating from necessity is a form of creative power, because it keeps you close to what's vital, alive, and electric -- more than any "should" energy ever could. I'll explore how generative discomfort can be used as fuel for excavating creative potential, and how to sense into what's ready to be metabolized -- into medicine. I'll share concrete examples from my 11 years of obsessions, and leave you with questions to contemplate. *🦋 join ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Labyrinth Library⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🧧 explore my March course, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Digital Abundance⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🧃 take 7 days of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Money Juice Cleanse⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠~mentioned:the process is the way~💌 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠receive ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠my newsletters⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🌳 explore my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠courses⁠⁠⁠⁠✨ visit my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠web world⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠

changing your relationship to money is not a 10 step checklist, it's tending to an ongoing practice -- with curiosity and tenderness -- as you do with your creative work. I'll share my own personal stories and significant reframes -- money as a circle, as feminine force, as a child of your creative energy. I'll walk you through my 7 practices for working with money -- and invite you to see money as a portal for working with your sense of resourcedness, enoughness, worthiness to receive, and your power to claim what you desire. *🧃 take 7 days of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Money Juice Cleanse⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🧧 explore my new course, ⁠⁠⁠⁠Digital Abundance⁠⁠⁠⁠🦋 join ⁠⁠⁠⁠Labyrinth Library⁠⁠⁠⁠, winter season ~mentioned:curated money stories money is a circle, process, practicecreative energy is the mother of money~💌 ⁠⁠⁠⁠receive ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠my newsletters⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🌳 explore my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠courses⁠⁠⁠✨ visit my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠web world⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠

part 3 of a mini-seriesremember that your art is not an afterthought -- it is the center that holds everything. it's the life source that feeds your creative world. in this episode, I'll examine the ways we're taught to think about the binary of art vs. business -- and propose my third way of deep integration. this means allowing your artist child to grow up -- and claim their voice, power, and leadership in the material world. I'll share how two forms of artist energy can exist in a business, and the importance of creating containers that actually allow your creative self to thrive. I'll leave you with guiding questions to consider on how to integrate your artist energy into your work. *🧃 take 7 days of ⁠⁠⁠⁠Money Juice Cleanse⁠⁠⁠⁠🧧 explore my new course, ⁠⁠⁠Digital Abundance⁠⁠⁠🦋 join ⁠⁠⁠Labyrinth Library⁠⁠⁠, winter season ~mentioned:⁠the way of the artist entrepreneur⁠make art for no audience (EP. 8) ~💌 ⁠⁠⁠receive ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠my newsletters⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠✨ visit my ⁠⁠⁠web world⁠⁠ ⁠🌳 explore my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠courses⁠⁠⁠

part 2 of a mini-serieswhen tending to my business, I bring it back to two practices -- making offerings, and weaving my web. I share how I think about offerings as sacred containers, organic shapes, and potent distillations of your creative energy -- into usable form. I'll talk about weaving your web as an energetically efficient, long-term strategy that builds your body of work, and invites people into your world. this episode is about all perspective shifts -- to reimagining business as a generative, potent creative practice. *🧃 take 7 days of ⁠⁠⁠Money Juice Cleanse⁠⁠⁠🧧 explore my new course, ⁠⁠Digital Abundance⁠⁠🦋 join ⁠⁠Labyrinth Library⁠⁠, winter season ~mentioned:my business is a hammock I weave by handthe way of the artist entrepreneurbuild a labyrinth, not a funnel~💌 ⁠⁠receive ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠my newsletters⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠✨ visit my ⁠⁠web world⁠⁠ 🌳 explore my ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠courses⁠⁠⁠
