Psychology wizards say you should celebrate small wins.
I'm doing it with ice cream and art supplies. Join me, won't you? š¦
Somehow 1,000 people have chosen to see my emails in their inbox each week. Thank you for being one of them!Ā Iām so proud of this lovely community weāve created.
Celebrating our own milestones is important, but itās HARD. I canāt tell you how many times I cringed writing this post. Psychology wizards say you need to acknowledge even small wins, so your brain will get warm, fuzzy feelings and motivate you to keep showing up.
Thatās why I made this Milestones section and glued it to my homepage. Itās a place to acknowledge your wins and encourage other members. Everyone here is in different stages of their practice, but weāre all dedicated to growing as humans and artists.
Why Substack?
Other social media platforms felt like showing up at my high school cafeteria, with a face full of zits wearing off-brand everything. Substack feels like arriving at my grandmaās house as sheās pulling a sheet of cookies out of the oven.Ā This is a kind, supportive place to be yourself.
Substack gives me the opportunity to give my content at no cost to artists who are:
BIPOC
members of the LGBTQ+ community, or
experiencing financial difficulty
PleaseĀ message meĀ for access with āDRAWING ACCESSā in the subject line and Iāll add you to my paid list. No questions asked, nothing expected in return.
