What’s Your Big Vision?

Published by on June 18, 2020 | Leave a response

I talk a lot on this blog, over time, about vision boards. That’s because I love making them and find them a useful reminder of my aims. But let’s step back just a moment. In order to use a vision board, you kind of need to have… a vision. What is it that you want […]

A Poem From the Animus

Published by on June 17, 2020 | Leave a response

What I Love About You by Nikki Starcat Shields Your willingness to continually Show up for yourself and your dreams. The way we danced the tango last night, tangled in drifts of potential. How clearly you see your fears. The friends you don’t see anymore but still care about. Waking up hungry for more life. […]

Published by on June 9, 2020 | Leave a response

I asked the writers in my Sacred Path program to choose one book to read with a curious mind this month – to peek behind the curtain and see how the book was crafted. As part of that process, I shared some books on writing craft, but noted that any type of book would work. […]

Starcat’s Favorites: Summer Begins

Published by on May 30, 2020 | Leave a response

It’s late May in Maine, and our weather has leaped ahead to feeling like early July. I’m not complaining at all – I love the heat! I’m still going for near-daily woods walks, and also spending time in my hammock. We haven’t been swimming yet, because that water is surely super cold, but soon… Even […]

Nature Is Healing

Published by on May 19, 2020 | Leave a response

Nature is healing. It’s amazing to me how many times in life I forget this, and then remember it again. I’m blessed to live in a beautiful rural area in Maine. Out behind our home, there are acres and acres of forest. I take it for granted sometimes. I mean, it’s kind of obvious that […]

Personal Projects, No Pressure

Published by on May 12, 2020 | Leave a response

Creative people like us often have a bunch of projects underway at any given time. Despite what you might hear or read, this is a good thing. Our brains work differently from those who move in a linear fashion from one project to another. Creativity is less like a line and more like a wild, […]

Starcat’s Favorites: The Forest

Published by on April 25, 2020 | Leave a response

One of the things I’ve been enjoying most during this time of sheltering in place is walking in the woods behind our home. I’m blessed to live on family land that was my grandmother’s. She died when I was just 15, but even before that, I remember her saying how she wanted the land to […]

A Love Affair With the Sea

Published by on March 12, 2020 | Leave a response

One of my favorite places to be is by the ocean. I suppose that’s why I was born here in Maine. There are many reasons why we’re drawn to stand at the edge of the sea. The natural beauty. The negative ions from flowing water that help us feel less stressed and more joyful. The […]

Travel and the Creative Soul

Published by on March 4, 2020 | Leave a response

What comes to mind when you hear the word “adventure?” For me, it’s a no-brainer. Adventure means TRAVEL. Travel feeds my creative soul like nothing else. I first caught the travel bug when I was a shy teenage Girl Scout. The longer I stayed in Girl Scouts, the fewer peers and the smaller the troop […]
