Why am I not there yet? What am I doing wrong?
Dear creative mind, this is a question we’ll explore together in today’s episode, as I will be reading a letter I wrote back in the Spring of 2022: Artists, do not rush your creative mission.
Some journaling prompts you may want to reflect on:
Do I really have to change the situation or my perspective of it? Do I need to adjust the goal or the measuring stick? Can I take a step back and let go of the microscope to witness my growth, and just trust that it will?
Instead of rushing and finding ways to grow faster, how can I simplify my path and make it easier to navigate?
If I knew with certainty that this project would come to life, how would I approach it?
Is this pace something I am self imposing? Or is it a rhythm that was imposed upon me?
What would it look like to follow a pace that allows me to enjoy the journey getting to my goal?
What would need to change compared to my current pace?
What creates a feeling of urgency or a need to rush? Where does it come from?
How can I self-regulate when I notice impatience or hustle stories pop up?Hello, I'm Pascale! I coach artists, makers and creatives of all kinds because I believe in the cathartic power of art, and the important role you're here to play. Through coaching, we co-create a sacred space to gently untangle the knots on your rebellious path, support your wellbeing and elevate your soulful work. My clients come to me with a heart full of creative ideas... and a mind tangled in self-doubt. My role is to help them find their way back to self-trust so they can fully step into the next level of their creative vision, business and self. Together, we work on softening the inner wars they host, building emotional resilience and stepping away from the cycle of self-betrayal. Curious about working together? You're welcome to book a complimentary call so we can meet and explore coaching support options.
