Creation Elevations

It's not business, it's personal.

How many webinars, coaches, groups, and memberships does it take until you can become the person you were meant to be? How much money would you spend figuring out how to create a reality that includes your deepest desires? What if I told you to look no further! That I had the answer to all that you seek, right here!

Now, this is where I might burst your bubble. Where I might lose you a bit. See, you never needed a single one of those webinars. The truth is, that the key to creating the life that you desire; Is to -truly- desire the life you have been creating! You never needed to purchase anything! Most often what keeps us from manifesting what it is that we tell ourselves we want; is recognizing that we've already manifested what we have. The more we yearn and reach for the next best thing, the more we solidify the belief that what we have isn't good enough! "I do not want what I create", is the message we send out to the universe when we tell ourselves that story.

If you are at all aware of "The Law of Attraction" then you probably understand that the more you live in that story, the more of it you will get. Now, I'm not here to spew some "Abraham Hicks" style spiritual lecture. But, I have learned something, and it has been my newfound passion to share it!

As an artist, I learned early in life to absolutely adore my creations. My art isn't always another person's cup of tea of course. And, being confident that everyone needs to see your art can sometimes translate as being "cocky". But, especially as a young artist, it is almost an innate reflex to present with excitement. "Look what I made!". The playfulness of youth allows them to present even their scribbles with pride! For years I have tried to harness this energy and make it some sort of lucrative venture. I've tried to sell my art. I've tried to teach others how to paint. I used to be an acrylic painting instructor in a craft store, right around the time when there seemed to be a rising interest in those parties where people would paint while enjoying a drink or two. I thought, now that is a great idea! Only, after pursuing my own mental health and having struggled with substance abuse, I thought "There must be something more elevating we could do, than drink while we create." And then it hit me... Elevate. Create & Elevate! I immediately begin hatching a plan to instruct art that focused on healing, and spiritual growth!

Before I knew it, I was kneedeep in what I felt was the most amazing business idea ever. And because business was so far outside of my grasp, I began scouring the internet for the best way to invite the world into this art class that would have them leaving with a more uplifted sense of self. It was apparent that I was birthing my true passion for helping others, for being of service; and I would have no idea how much that passion would soon take the wheel on everything I thought I was controlling.

What felt like 10,000 webinars in, and I was on overdrive. I had completely shifted my focus to becoming this successful business owner! I just knew I had a great idea, and every day that I wasn't putting it into motion, began to feel like a day that I was failing to live my purpose. I started buying crystals, following gurus, and literally trying everything I could to reach into the vortex of the universe; and pull out this vision that I could swear I had every intention of manifesting! I just couldn't figure out why it didn't seem to be getting me anywhere. I had registered for my business "Creation Elevations LLC", I started a group, and artist page, and started showing my lesson ideas on all my social media platforms. Nothing seemed to be igniting this vision.

Then, just like every great miracle, it hit me like a bolt of lightning. I had been trying so hard to stay in a "joy frequency", trying to attract a life of abundance. Doing one of those exersizes where I took inventory of everything I had to be grateful for, just so I could give myself a reason to feel good. Often this meant reframing things that didn't always bring me joy. I have 5, very overwhelming children. So often I gripe about how they wear me out and leave me feeling drained. However, in that moment I credited them for being my greatest sources of joy. I am on disability, and use a housing voucher and various other forms of assistance in order to live; this normally brings me a great deal of shame. But again, that moment I honored myself as a person who has mastered utilizing my resources to nurture my family!

The more I immersed myself in this practice of finding joy in the life that I had in front of me... The more I could see, evolving right before my eyes, was this masterpiece I had been creating all along. It occurred to me that every moment leading up to the present was that of my own design! And, I wasn't just supposed to show people how they could elevate while they create. I am supposed to wake people up to the truth of their own creations already in progress. This wasn't just about arts and crafts, this was about life!

My journey of developing Creation Elevations as a business idea became a catalyst to discovering its true potential to change lives. I realized that so many of us are lacking that innocent child-like pride in our creations. To be able to look at our circumstances, just as they are, and say "Look what I made!". And, I know that isn't always easy. I've been homeless, in drug treatment facilities, and fighting to get my children out of the foster care system. I've literally seen some pretty unimaginable lows (gotta save some details for my book). But, I have come out of each hardship as an evolved being, so much more evolved that it would make complete sense that I would have created these circumstances so that I could find my way out of them.

My gift, as an artist, isn't to show people how to become artists. It is to show people how to love their creations like an artist. To use creative outlets and exercises to spark that inner-child who LOVES to play, and believes in magic. I want to go beyond drawing exersizes, and tap into a place where we remember how powerful of creators we've always been!

I no longer stress about how I am going to become a successful business owner, after being blessed with the clarity that my "success" wasn't in finding the money, but rather relaying the message. A relentless need to share my discovery has opened more doors than any webinar. Maybe all those crystals I was meditating with, were bringing me here. The more I accept and appreciate the life I have, the more the path to what I need to do next seems to illuminate before me. And now, I want nothing more than to aide others in feeling that same sense of fulfillment. As a now certified life coach, in both therapeutic arts as well as hypnotherapy. I come with an aresenal of tools that will tear down all the critics who say our beautiful life creations aren't good enough. But the first critic we have to convince is ourselves.
