6 Fun & Easy Ways to Connect with your Vision...

How quickly and honestly can you answer this question:

“What do you really want?”

In my experience with my coaching clients, and people in my circle, the answer is usually a hesitant “umm…wow…I don’t know! I guess I’ve never really thought about it.”

Or often I receive a list of everything they DON’T want.

I’m sure you can relate.

You may have an idea of what your dream car is, or where you’d really love to go on vacation, but what about your everyday experience?

Have you ever thought about what you really want life to be like?

You may be so caught up in the grind of daily rhythms, obligations, and to-do’s, that you wind up living your life on somewhat mindless autopilot, drifting along, or getting stuck in the weeds.

So, you wind up living according to someone else’s (your parent’s, your teacher’s, or our culture’s, “traditional” racist hustling patriarchal…) vision of what our life should look, be, and feel like, or you simply fall into a disenchanted and stale way of life by accident.

You look around in 10 years and wonder how you got where you are…what happened?

Imagine if you took time to consciously craft the vision for what you would really love for this life, and stayed connected to it by taking consistent, regular, and easeful action.

What could be possible?

What could you create?

How could that change your life?

How could that change the WORLD?

If you’re anything like me, you spend all your energy creating a really juicy, nourishing, and inspiring vision, but then you fugghedaboutit! (hello object permanence)

Here are 6 simple ways to keep your vision in the forefront of your mind, so that it becomes impossible to forget about. This results in making choices on a daily basis, both by intention and by accident that lead you towards the life you’ve always dreamed of living.

  1. Get crafty and create a Vision Board or Glowing Lumenaria

  2. Design Pinterest boards for each category of your vision (holistic self-care, legacy & life’s-purpose, inspiring surroundings and environment, beautiful nourishing foods, community & relationships)

  3. Assign Spotify Playlists to evoke how you want your life to feel

  4. Use iMovie to create a simple video montage - watch it every day 50 First Dates style

  5. Build an altar to represent your vision: A small vial of sand for your future home by the ocean, a little dog collar for your the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy you're the perfect dog-mom for, a painting or photo of the people of your village in integrated, interdependent, supportive community, a check made out to yourself for your dream job's salary,

  6. Combine imagery, music, and words - Create a reel or tiktok and share your vision & inspire the masses. (tag me so I can see it and cheer you on!)

If you want to dive deeper into creating your authentic, aligned, and nourishing vision, I’ve created a FREE downloadable Visioning Playbook to walk you through everything from the nitty gritty details of the very first whisper of a vision, to creating actionable steps that you can easily incorporate into your life every day.
