The Creative Life: An 8-Week Exploration of Creativity and Connection

The Creative Life is an intimate 8-week group exploring our relationship with creativity: what inspires us, what gets in our way, and how we can cultivate more of it. Through meaningful conversations, guided reflection, and weekly solo adventures, we’ll support one another in building a more creative, connected life.

Who is this group for?

You don’t have to identify as “a creative” to join. If you’re looking to experiment more, feel creatively fulfilled, or reconnect with a sense of play and adventure—this is for you.

Whether you’re a daily artist, someone who “wasn’t the creative one” growing up, or somewhere in between, you’ll be welcomed into an open and inclusive group.

***

What to expect:

• Weekly group meetups (Mondays, 6-7:30 pm, Sept. 22-Nov. 17) to reflect and connect
• Weekly prompts and exercises inspired by creativity teachers like Julia Cameron and Martha Beck
• A daily journaling practice
• Solo “creative adventures” to explore, inspire, and expand your comfort zone
• Deep conversations and a community that lasts beyond the 8 weeks

And who are you?

Hi, I’m Anna—a writer, creativity group facilitator, and former "down-to-earth, business one" of the friend group. For years, I was convinced creativity was for certain types of people, and I was not one of them. After wading through these narratives and habits holding me back from being creative, I formed this group to continue the journey with others. Currently, I'm into dancing, learning German, and playing the piano, plus I may be on the brink of an abstract collage phase.
