I like to think of my sponsorship program as a way of playing matchmaker. These weekly sponsor spotlight posts allow me to do just that - play matchmaker between you and some really amazing people who are providing unique and well crafted offerings. If you are interested in becoming a sponsor (includes your ad on the sidebar + ongoing spotlights), please send me an email at kellyraeroberts@gmail.com for further information!

After I gave birth to my daughter, I felt lost. I needed to process the most beautiful and traumatic event I’d ever been through. I wanted to find the secret coven of mothers who would usher me in and perform some rites(involving red paint and Jack Daniels, perhaps) that would help me make senseof all this new power and purpose and pain.

I kept waiting forthe Wise Women to show up, but guess what? We’re it. So I created avirtual ‘campfire’ for women to tell their deepest tales of this potent transformation.

Excerpt from my love letter to mothers:
I know the fullness of late summer, mybreasts and belly
ripe and bulging, fecund with life and nourishment;
and I know the barrenness of winter, whensnow is the only gentle comfort
for my ravaged emptiness
and it seems that my juice and my heatwill never return.
I have been through the ring offire. I have passed through it and lived.

Life is full – of weddings and births, new jobs, new opportunities, and new beginnings. Other transitions are far more painful, requiring more emotional energy to navigate. We are faced with death and loss – of friends and loved ones, the death of relationships, the death of dreams we’d formed our lives around, the loss of a job, the loss of a role we’re familiar playing.

No matter where you are, where you’ve been, or where you’re heading, we invite you to spend 4 weeks in September with us, building your Dream Tending skills and participating in creative activities that will help you explore and refocus on your dreams.

Join us in September 2011 for Dream Tending, a four-week, online workshop led by Kelly Barton, Michelle Ensminger & Mishelle Lane.

Class price is $49 and includes daily posts (Monday through Friday) and weekly activities in multimedia art, storytelling and photography to tend your own dreams in times of transition. In addition, there will be a creative toolkit section included in each week’s lessons. Class begins September 5.

This is your last chance this year to set out on your journey towards discovering your true passion, and making it a greater part of your everyday life - in the Do What You Love e-course.
In six weeks you will expand your comfort zone, nurture your playful spirit and use this to feed your creative soul. It has been described by former participants as 'life-changing', 'awe-inspiring' and 'transformational'.

You will travel this path with a community of like-minded people from across the world, sharing your stories, forging new connections, and inspiring each other.

This will be like no other class you have ever taken. Can you afford not to join us?

The Do What You Love e-course begins on September 26 and will not run again until next year so register now and get ready for an adventure!

With a desire to create designs, make them affordable and accessible for everyone, and support charities, I asked 'what can I do?' from my home on the south coast of Australia, with small resources but bundles of enthusiasm. The Twenty5 Project is the answer to that question.

Basically, one print costs one dollar. 25 cents from each one dollar will be donated to a charity that supports our Troops.

These prints do not arrive by post. Once purchased, they are INSTANTLY sent to your email inbox. You may then print them as you like, frame & display them, pin them to your inspiration board, stick them to the fridge or even the bathroom mirror.

Everyone wants something nice to put up in their home. My wish and intention is to provide new and fresh artwork that everyone can afford, and can afford to change every few months or whenever you please. And makes you feel good too! I am just starting – more prints with varied themes are on their way. :) – Melissa Jaine.
