Here is a little AI fun in your "chat Gpt". that you may like to try for your own business. Create a caricature of me and my job based on everything you know about me. First, ask me to upload a picture of myself if I have not done so. I love that my image features a starfish. It reminds me to keep going. Keep showing up to help people. Its all about helping people even if it is - one at a time

❤️ A little reflection from my heart this week… This past week has been an absolute whirlwind for our family. My husband became critically ill and has been in ICU. For a while, life became very focused on survival… decisions… waiting… praying… hoping… and navigating moments that felt incredibly heavy and uncertain. Today, I am deeply grateful to say we have climbed out of that “darkness” zone of simply trying to save his life… and are now stepping into the next phase — preparing for him to leave ICU and move toward surgery for optimal healing and health. Moments like this have a way of stopping you in your tracks. We go about our days making plans, building dreams, rushing through routines… often living as though tomorrow is guaranteed. And then suddenly… life reminds us what truly matters. One thing that has been highlighted so powerfully for me is the support surrounding our family. The messages.The prayers.The people who cooked us a meal.The love.The kindness. It has reminded me that the richest parts of life are often the things money cannot buy. I would love to ask our Creative Hearts community a question today ❤️ 👇 Its Poll time!!: When life gets stripped back to what REALLY matters… what do you value most? (You can choose more than one of the options below if you’d like.) And if you feel comfortable… share WHY below.Your answer may encourage someone else more than you realise.

My mom & dad grew up during the great depression. A time when things weren't wasted. Everything had value. If someone could use it for anything, you didn't discard it. Recycling & repurposing was mandatory, not a fad. We moved a lot growing up and with each subsequent move, a little more of my childhood disappeared. When my father passed away (I was 14), there were 2 younger siblings in the home. My mom didn't drive, didn't know how to write a check, and was tossed into a world she wasn't prepared for. She had been a traditional homemaker her entire life. So, she took jobs working in daycare, cooking, and doing alterations. Things she had great skill in. I was the eldest in the home, so as soon as I got my license, I was the family chauffer. At 14, I learned to write checks. At 15, I was working 2 jobs and going to high school. I wasn't afforded the opportunity to go to college, but I'm a lifelong learner. I read a lot. I love making friends. As an adult, I began "collecting" pretty things. Things that reminded me of my childhood. Then going down rabbit holes learning about the things I collected ended up being addictive. Now, I'm in the "letting go" season of life. I don't want my kids to be burdened with the removal & disposal of things they find no value in. So I'm making other people happy (giving it away). I'm also archiving anything that will fit on the bed of a scanner. THAT will be my legacy. A growing museum. And people can use all the digital assets in any way they choose. I try to share tidbits of interesting history and love hearing insights and perspectives on the history (in your eyes). My mom raised me to be creative and explore any form of art that tickles my fancy. And I have and will continue to do so. I hope to retire soon and that will afford me more time to enjoy the arts and creative expression. Right now, it's working full time in a manufacturing plant, selling things online, and managing 2 skool communities. My hands are full (but my heart is full as well).

Tonight @Nicole Masseque and I have begun a program within our business community and are learning about the manifestion of what you desire and design for your life. What you focus on persists. What is one sentence that describes you in present tense....? I will give an example below in the comments

When I first started my digital business I was super excited and jumped on into the training so that I could set up my first sales funnel as soon as possible. I felt like I was a kid in a candy shop. The excitement was so palpable that I didn't sleep very well - stirred with the dreams of possibility that I was hoping that was going to hit me within the first month. I remember a wise business owner saying to me "I just have to be patient and follow the steps that others had prepared for community". Life is an amazing teacher - if we stop and notice. I remember saying "Oh no - don't ask me to pray for patience because God will send me so many life situations for me to learn patience " - haha - too late it was out of my mouth and into existence. This has been my experience for my business. I thought I had found a gold mine as I watched people from within the community climb the ranks and life chose to give me the Patient journey as I have slowly made my way to being a coach in the community acheiving some results but at a much slower rate. Let me express to you, the life lessons that I have learnt have been SOOOOO rich and now almost 7 years on from beginning my business, I understand that - it is the journey of growth which is experienced from my business system is where the true GOLD lies. Having a good intention behind doing what you do is an important element for your business, and understanding why you started and developing your why is an important factor for your consistency and momentum. So my advice to people looking into my business program now is. Keep it simple. Take the time to do the small steps that have been set out before you. and indeed "Be patient".
