Acknowledge the creative whispers in your heart and explore your dreams.

You know that question: “So what do you do?”

It’s ok if you don’t know the answer! This journal will help you open your heart and slowly craft some answers. You’ll find floods of inspiration with all the prompts, lists, and challenges. You should even unearth the creative direction you want to take as a hobby or even a career.

Measures 4x5.5 inches (10x14 cm)

The book walks you through a fun (yet subtly organized) process of:

• defining yourself
• finding your creative passion
• exploring who inspires you and why
• goal setting
• facing fears
• setting aside what everyone else thinks (and what you suspect they will think)
• planning and dreaming
• reaching greatness

Modeling the popular {She} personal journals, the prompts in this book refer to “she” and “her”, not “I” and “me”. Katie’s unique approach takes the focus off the external self and helps you focus on your heart. Here are examples:

“First things first,” she decided as she started to write: Where do I want this journal to take me? What do I want to see?

Joy must start from within, and these were the things that brought her heart joy.

Uncontrollable thing #1 to let go of.

Your handmade journal includes:

• 76 pages of writing prompts
• mini envelopes with custom labels for exercises like writing a letter to your future (successful!) self and listing doubts and fears that hold you back
• carnival tickets, a hand-stamped teensy tag, and square embellishing stickers
• patterned papers from Italy

Wind energy and environmentally friendly dyes were used in the production of many parts of this book. All journaling pages are 100% or 30% recycled.

The book is easy to customize: reorganize pages, add more, or hole-punch and include extras. Creative exploration shouldn’t be forced in a book of numbered pages!

The inspiration behind this book is Katie's original creative journey diary. You'll find the same prompts Katie used in her own journey founding Gadanke, from moments of uncertainty to experiences of joy.

Those creative whispers want to be heard; they need a safe place to emerge. And you know what? They really just want to celebrate the woman you are meant to become.
