Two Words for 2012 - Comfortable Boldness
There are many bloggers who name a word for their year. When I created my 12 Intentions for 2012, I was seeking something similar — a focus, a thread, a theme, to weave in and out and through my year. In 2010, my word was nurture. It was serendipity in 2011. As I started reading Style Statement, I came upon two words: my foundation and my creative edge...
February Intentions
Happy February to you, my lovelies! I am so thrilled to begin a fresh month, especially since we get a bonus day on the 29th. How did your January shape up? I completed the Whole Living Action Plan as I intended and finished reading Style Statement. Thanks to those of you who shared your enthusiasm for the iPhone wallpaper I created with my January goals. I loved it so much...
Shimmering Possibility
I recently attended a goal setting session at my local lululemon. I went with my friend and an open mind, hoping to learn something new. The event began with introductions, then a brief visualization of where we hope to find ourselves 10 years from now. I'm trying not to judge myself too harshly, but it kinda seems like I want it all...
12 Intentions for 2012
This fall, I will be celebrating my blog's 3-year anniversary. Three years of showing up, sharing inspiration and connecting with more creative souls than I ever imagined possible.

I'm quite fond of outlines and lists...
December Intentions
The last month of 2011 has arrived! Are you ready for it? This is my favorite time of year. I am feeling giddy about twinkling lights, cozy sweaters, wrapping presents, Christmas music, holiday parties, visiting family, living in gratitude, reflecting on the past, ringing in the New Year, dancing, singing, and celebrating...
Intentions for November
Do you set goals for each new month? It's something I like to do — and it seems to be very popular across the blogosphere. However, my personal goals have been nothing more than good intentions recently. My aim for November is to truly dedicate myself to the goals I've set...
Areas of Interest
I've written a lot about being busy and prioritizing what's important. I have a very aspirational nature that comes out in full force through my to-do lists, goals and intentions. I've always been someone with many areas of interest, but most of my satisfaction comes from doing a few things really well...
Hello September
There's something about September that brings me happiness. It's still very warm where I live, but there's a hint of cooler times ahead. The seasons are starting to shift. This last 1/3 of the year always flies by. I think it might be my favorite. I have a few goals for this month. Intentions that I hope...
