stargardener's conscious living

“I need to be able to admire my protagonist despite [her] faults, and so be given a glimpse of my own potential.” -Madeleine L’Engle

September focus: living + asking our questions [in-full + without apology] and [with the purpose of knowing ourselves more fully]—amidst our 🎢 doubts and challenges and from the perspective of seeing our [growth] and the different ways we have experienced [redemption] … processing all of those details as an act of faith. 📿

Habit Stacking is the theme for the September Ko-fi download, and I decided to revamp + simplify my habits regarding what I share here. (Like editing this monthly post.) 😊

• 🔔 The next community session I host for my Ko-fi patrons will be Saturday, September 19, 1:30-2:45-ish p.m. Central Time. The meeting link will be posted here on September 18.

☑️ I am currently switching up how I host online support offerings. This will include expanding support for my Ko-fi patrons. And I would love for {you} to join in, Braveheart! 💕

🫂member comments and testimonials:

“I was surprised to feel so relaxed and seen…” | open and authentic | “I have learned to simply resume (without shame)…” | stronger together | motivation to create | warm & welcoming | “I was surprised to feel so relaxed and seen…” | open and authentic

Braveheart, I compiled this ⬇️ download as a sampler of what I included in a weekly zine I compiled this past week + some notes about my practice. I will share more details and images with my Ko-fi patrons. ❤️

Thank you kindly for your presence here, Braveheart. 💗

I appreciate your interest and support.

~love & good wishes~

⭐️ I am an artist and curator; I am one who communicates with color, found words and collage, inky marks and doodles as I cycle like the moon (as my calendar), chronicling oracles and abiding with the sky as a meditation.

Artist’s Statement 😊🔮🔎📝🖌️🎨❤️📊🫟

⭐️ I host creative communities, safe spaces for gathering and sharing. I choose love and creativity for coping with the ongoing challenges of this world and I go to work—not because everything is fine but because I believe art heals.

❤️ Braveheart, as the Creator/Artist of Right Brain Planner I am ever-grateful to have the opportunity to share my creative work online + support other creators! 🎉 For almost 20 years I have had the privilege of sharing my art and writing about right brain planning while also hosting kindred 👭🏽💞👭 communities. ✨ I consider it an absolute 🤸 delight to continue this portion of my creative 📝🖌️✂️🫧 work (even as I retire from full-time work).

• This is possible, in part, by {you} and your presence here. (Thank you!) 💗 But also because of the support of my Ko-fi patrons and the other member/subscriber communities I host (via their presence, input and paid subscriptions). 🫶
