Week 2 in Start of Fearless is all about PERMISSIO Week 2 in Start of Fearless is all about PERMISSION. I couldn't let another day go by without sharing this hand-lettered page filled with notes I took during our group calls talking about all of the amazing ways our Fearless ladies are giving themselves permission day after day! Giving yourself permission to do the things that you've been telling yourself you can't (sometimes for a long long time) takes a whole lot of courage, and I am SO proud of the way these women are SHOWING up for themselves in Fearless Art day after day! Giving yourself permission is a life-long practice, and these ladies are knocking it out of the park! <3 #fearlessart #permission #giveyourselfpermission #handlettering
After a full week away with the @creativefounders After a full week away with the @creativefounders alumni retreat in Destin, Florida last week - I'm coming home refreshed and re-focused.... but most importantly I'm coming home with a whole lot of love for ME. . I had the unique opportunity during this week away to spend a lot of time just making space for my own self - I slept alone, I swam alone, I ate alone from time to time, I laughed alone, and YES I cried alone too. . As a serial extrovert and someone who has historically been afraid of being alone with my own thoughts - I'm so proud to share that this was the look on my face after a week of taking a LOT of time just for me. . As I floated with the waves, as I created space to sit, to think, to journal, and to dream - I discovered something that has been budding in me for a long long time over here: a deep, unabashed love for ME. . There was a time that I would have felt worried that this sounds too proud, that I'm not actually ALLOWED to love being with my own self so dang much.... "who do you think you are!?" might have echoed in my head... . ...but today it is different... . Today I am deeply proud of the girl in this photo. I'm humbled by her journey. I enjoy that she lives out loud and dives in headfirst, and FEELS all of the things. I just I stinking love this girl - and after days like this, I can't help but feel honored to simply be me. . #embrace #creativefoundersalumniretreat #gettaway #beachselfie #iloveme
I came home from my Florida adventures just in tim I came home from my Florida adventures just in time for our two Fearless Art group calls this week. . Right now we are talking all about blooming: choosing a creative practice to focus on, lean into, and build our skills!! . As we talked I lettered some of the things that these brave ladies are focusing their attention on - and I am so excited watching them bloom as they lean into these skills! . Building skill is all about the practice, and what a gift it is that the practice of practicing always cultivates our skills and creates increasingly beautiful results. 💗💗💗 . To my Fearless Art ladies: you are planting and watering beautiful gardens over there, I could not be more proud 🥰 . #fearlessart #fearlessart2021 #blooming

@morganharpernichols is over here speaking straigh @morganharpernichols is over here speaking straight to my soul... . This past week at the @creativefounders alumni retreat has been a week of BEING. . Being loved and cared for. Being at home in my skin. Being FREE to laugh and ponder and share and jump head first into the sea. . This has been a week of simply being ME. . I love to DO, oh how I love to do all the things... And this week I DID so many fun things!!! . ...But oh. my. heart. The biggest gift this week has been in the *being* , and my soul is saying "yes please and thank you" for the time to BE me, right now and right here. . . #creativefoundersalumniretreat #allalongyouwereblooming #mhnpoetry #destinflorida
Pink sunsets, the sliver of a moon above, a wide o Pink sunsets, the sliver of a moon above, a wide open invitation from the sea.... and the absolute bliss of just allowing myself to be me. . 📷 by @kristinwilsoncreative (Thank you, friend for truly seeing me... and for capturing this moment of me in my happy place) . #creativefounders #creativefoundersalumniretreat #creativefoundersalumni
This. Is. Me. . My name is Shawna and I am an expl This. Is. Me. . My name is Shawna and I am an explorer. . Also, I cry literally every time I fly. . I soak it all in. This beautiful universe I which I get to explore freely and also be seen.... . This precious life, where am loved, by so many of you, for exactly who I am. . Yes, I am adorned by layers of pink... But beyond that.. I am an adventurer, I am a liver, I am a lover of humanity, I am messy and I am surrounded by chaos.... . I get to choose yes more than no. I get to dream big, and I chase those dreams. . I know it is a gift. To feel seen and loved and free all at once.... . So, I fly away whenever I can, I soak I it all in. I do, I see, I live. . And I cry the happy tears of someone who knows the beauty of feeling seen. . Maybe, all I'm trying to say here, sweet sweet friends, is just a thank you... For making space for this tender spirit, to just be me. . #grateful #freespirit #thisisme

Friends, here is the heart behind my newest collec Friends, here is the heart behind my newest collection in the @illustratedfaith Print and Pray shop: “Hope in Dry Places.”: Caring for our mental health is something that I hold dear to my heart. As a part of our community, I hear your stories... and as a survivor of suicidal depression, I feel the weight of it all - right by your side. Friend, I feel it deep in my soul - and because of that, this collection is for you. . When times are hard, it can feel so easy to feel the pressure to rush through the pain. We can be in a hurry: a rush to feel better, a rush to "solve" our problems, a rush to find the answers, a rush to just get "back to normal"... but the thing about surviving hurt and hard times is that sometimes it just takes TIME. . I created hope in dry places as a reminder to us all - that even when your soul is dry and weary and you can feel the cracks of sadness start to form - even when things feel lonely and your heart is tired - even when you are waiting, waiting, waiting for the rain.... . Friend, there is hope. . I love the visual of succulents for this reminder: those hearty little pokey plants, that know how to wait out dry times. . Friend: My sweet little succulent, you are stronger than you know. . Even if you are thirsty, and tired, and weary - you, my friend are not alone... wait out this season, rest in the reassurance that you have everything you need. Stored deep inside you are courage and strength and resilience that will surprise even you... . Wait for the rain, and while you wait, let it be dry and hard and let yourself slow your urgent pace. Wait for it, have hope in your driest of places, because it is coming - a beautiful soul-quenching, life-saving, rain. . If you or anyone you know is looking for support, I have an IGTV series as well as a Blog series that shares my personal story. . I can tell you from my own experience: there IS ”Hope in Dry Places”... . Together we can see this dry season through. . Thank you, Gena, @createanddaydream for this photo and for these words: ・・・ No matter what you are going through in this life there is always HOPE. . (You can find this collection in there @illustratedfaith Print and Pray shop)💗
