The Start of Something New

Let’s be honest with each other, starting something new can be terrifying. With so much content out there on the internet it’s hard not to ask myself ‘why in the world would anything I create attract an audience’. Even writing this first entry has me second guessing my choices. Haha!

My goal for this blog is to pull myself out of my comfort zone and try to just enjoy the creative process as much as possible. I have tried so many different outlets to scratch the creative itch and unfortunately nothing has been able to stick.

Cake Decorator– this one lasted the longest but I got burnt out after 10 years on my feet

Starting a bullet journal– I fixated on the details and designs and never allowed myself to enjoy the actual journaling aspect (we may revisit it someday)

Coloring books– my kids would think they were theirs and scribble everywhere

Now that I am a stay-at-home mom I find myself with more time to discover and dive into activities I enjoy. Not having the stress of a 9-5 job is allowing me to explore and create in new ways. One way being this blog!

Writing has always intrigued me. The ability to tell a story -and tell it well- seems so gratifying.
But where do I start?

I’m learning the starting line can be wherever I want. Just start!

So here is to the start of this blog. I am excited to see where this adventure takes me and I hope you come along for the ride!
