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
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
