What if you have more creative potential than you know?
Maybe you’re a practicing creative or someone who wonders: But, am I creative though?
Either way, I’m daring you to believe that there’s a joyful, possibility-filled path to your long held dreams, one that is filled with curiosity, wonder, and surprise.

I can’t stop talking about the sessions Naomi Kinsman did for our region. I had heard such wonderful things about her in-person workshops.
