Pursue your Passions (video message)

Need a little creative inspiration? Check out my end-of-the-year message. My message is not polished perfection, but it is packed with heart and intention. (A script) from the head would have made logical sense; hopefully, you get the gist. ๐Ÿ˜ Best to you in 2023! ๐Ÿ’— Michele

I was surprised yesterday to receive a notification that writer Selma Martin wrote a delightful review on my poetry collection: Being a Woman – Overcoming. A wonderful message to receive! I am grateful. ๐Ÿ˜Š Please visit her post, “What to Read, What to Buy Before the Yearโ€™s Over” to read her incredible review of my first poetry collection and to enjoy her beautiful photos. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป

This song, Right on Time, by Arizona based solo singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist/producer, Rob Riccardo found me recently. It has a different sound for me, but I am glad for its recent appearance because Riccardo’s lovely lyrics and creative journey felt a nice pairing for my inspired ramblings. ๐Ÿ˜

  1. Hello, Michele,

    I just read the review that Selma Martin gave about your book entitled “Being a Woman–Overcoming.” How incredible and kind of her to write such honest and lovely words.
    You deserve that, Michele, and more. Thank you for sharing your amazing gifts with all of us. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿงก

    1. “How incredible and kind” – she sure is! And so are you for taking the time to click over. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป We all have gifts and I believe it is part of our life work to evolve with and share them. I told my daughter that when she was struggling with changing majors from a science-based to an art major. She made the right choice. โœจ Thanks, Art. ๐Ÿ˜Š

  6. Great speaking voice, very encouraging words. You should consider trying off script, like as a goal ya know. I am new to your blog but that was a beautiful wat to start 2023. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘

    1. Thanks so much, Matt. Greatly appreciated! Thanks for the suggestion – my presentation was off-script with perhaps a formal tone. Informal and casual might be in order at some point in the future. ๐Ÿ˜ Best to you in 2023!

  8. Happy New Year! I felt the same thing starting to write againโ€”awake, alive, and much happier. You are so right. I wasn’t ready to write my books until now. I needed time to get more confident, grow my skills, and simply grow up. I’m now in such a better place and I’m excited every day now to sit down and create.
