This is not your typical planning...
A handful of years ago I realized it was possible to ask a question, sit with an idea, or play with a new tool—and then receive feedback from somewhere deep within me.

Since then, what I’ve drawn from that vast inner ocean has proven more valuable than any advice or external instruction I’ve ever received. It is my information—shaped by my own life, perception, and lived experience. You have that available too.

The more you ask, the more you learn to listen for the ancient language of the unconscious. It’s the same language spoken in art—made of images, symbols, sensations, and impulses. At first, using it to communicate with your inner creative can feel awkward or elusive. But over time, with use and attention, it can become a vibrant, ongoing conversation that is always available to you. I hope you enjoy this conversation and give it try!

Below you will find the book recommendations we mentioned in the live chat.
