Feeling like you'll never have enough time, money, recognition, access, (insert feeling here!) to sustain yourself as a creative person? Need to get out of the scarcity-mindset tunnel? This workshop will talk about how to create healthy habits for nurturing your creative practice and working from a place of 'abundance' vs. 'lack.'
In this workshop we will:
- Look at the research on how ‘scarcity thinking’ impacts the way we work
- Talk about why creatives are so vulnerable to ‘scarcity mindset’
- Identify methods for avoiding the ‘scarcity trap’
- Reflect on ways we feel scarce, and how to actualize abundance in our creative lives
- Talk about values and priorities as it relates to our work
Class will meet on Zoom. You'll be sent Zoom meeting info after enrollment and a PDF of the class presentation the day of.
