Paving Every Way

The inspiration that best serves us will never be on a pedestal. As creative women, comparing ourselves to others has only ever resulted in division and detriment to our universal truth: where women gather, we have the power to elevate the whole of society. Of course we are capable of achieving great things that will […]

Arranging Your Table

Even as Summer days begin their graceful exit, Fall softens the transition with a vibrance of its own. Your garden has flourished since the Spring, and every leaf is worth celebrating because they are each a part of the growth you have fostered.  Of course, even the smallest steps are worth acknowledging – after all, […]

The Journey of Abundance

As women who flourish in spaces of creativity, we learn early on how precious those spaces truly are to our well-being: somewhere we feel completely safe and free, shedding any doubt or possibility of failure. After all, when the ultimate goal is growth, the only way to fail is to deny our right to nourishment […]

An Autumnal Perspective

“Listen. . With faint dry sound, Like steps of passing ghosts, The leaves, frost-crisp’d, break from the trees And fall.“ November Night by Adelaide Crapsey Here we are, still riding the waves of warm sunshine as they gracefully begin to fade. The nights are cooling down and the earth seems to be sighing in reprieve […]

Turning A New Leaf

Living and moving with the seasons has become a powerful way of life for us as creative women. We have found peaceful repose in the Winter, allowing ourselves to slow down and reflect upon the previous year. Spring brought new life in her own time and rich soil in which to plant our seeds of […]
