We are talking all about finding inspiration today. Our individual tips and how we each find inspiration and also a little bit about the hard truth about finding inspiration: sometimes you just have to get to it, in order for the inspiration to come to surface. There is a fine line between forcing it and inviting it. We don’t suggest forcing inspiration, but if you get going on a task or action at hand, that action itself is letting you invite your inspiration to come alive! Tune in to hear more about this!
