Common ThreadsHolidays are stressful

Due to a busy family, work or school life, it's difficult, or seemingly impossible, to make time for yourself, your creativity or self-care

You have creative ideas that want to come out, but you can never find the time to make it happen OR you're so exhausted by the end of the day, that all of your creative ideas and/or self-care go out the window

You've never taken a skillshare class & thought now would be a great time to try it out 

WELCOME!Congratulations on taking an awesome step for your self-care!

Holiday Challenges

Time of giving & thinking of others

Lack of time; rushing to parties + obligations

Lack of intention & focus

We eat more, drink more

We exercise less, do less of what fills us up creatively
