It’s time,
Her time to rise,
Out of the dreams
She imagines
And into the world
She envisions,
The energy
She’s creating,
The energy which is
Creating her

I find that I’m a thinker. Usually an overthinker.
I have an active, creative brain that’s always connecting the dots between ideas and dreaming up new ideas (which is also why sleep is so elusive).
And also, I can get stuck in this space. It’s a really lovely space to be in, after all.
But dreaming is only the first step. Dreaming alone doesn’t put anything into action.
It creates the energy but the action is up to us.
I struggle at time with getting started. With not knowing how to make things perfect the first time. With the possibility that no one else will want what I’m creating.
That’s why I love my communities of other visionary folks who help keep me accountable and motivated to take action, even if it’s messy or imperfect.
Who push me to step outside what’s comfortable in pursuit of what challenges the status quo.
Because there is a time to dream, and a time to rise into what we’re imagining and make it reality.
And maybe we can do it alone.
But why?
What are you stepping into today – and who is supporting you?
