1st Queer Creative Coworking Session is TOMORROW!
Do you feel like me in the image above (upset, sad, overwhelmed, frustrated…) when you realize how many things are on your to-do list?
I took the above self portrait in May 2021 as I was processing a lot of difficult emotions. It took me until mid November to finally look through all the images and actually share them on my website.
Those self portraits sat on my hard drive for 6 MONTHS because there were so many images + I was dreading having to look through them all in order to choose my favorites.
I finally did it because I set up a container that included focused time + group accountability.
I invited members of my website to join me live on zoom while we looked through the images, together.
That (seemingly) simple plan made all the difference.
We got through the whole day of images, more than I thought we would accomplish! I dreaded going through hundreds of photos, but having friends there with me helped me go through ALL of them within about an hour!
I’ve done coworking with friends before, but I’ve never offered an organized group session where we can all work on our individual tasks/goals/creations with focused time + group accountability… until now.
The first Queer Creative Coworking session is TOMORROW!
I’d love for you to join us if this sounds like something that would benefit you!
A few more details are below, ALLLLL the details are on the eventbrite page!
Queer Creative Coworking!
Do you have a list of things you want to do, but for whatever reason can’t get around to actually getting them done?
Coworking / body doubling is a process that allows for mindful preparation, a distraction-free environment + group accountability to help us work toward our goals. When we set up focused time on a regular basis, we are more likely to make progress on projects that matter to us.
Itinerary:
-
gathering
- dive in with quick tips + review of community guidelines
- introductions (name, pronouns, intentions/goals for the session)
- somatic practice
- 1 hour of focused work/creation broken up into 2 x 25 minute blocks with an optional 10 minute break in the middle
- journaling +/ writing down plans for next steps
-
sharing our progress
Join us live on zoom!
Wednesdays at 10am EST
January 5th – TOMORROW!
January 12th
January 26th
February 2nd
Since you’re a member, you get to join for FREE!
Use code “BLMBR” for your free ticket(s)!This is an experiment! There are only 4 sessions scheduled to see how it goes, so if this sounds like something you’re interested in, join us while you can! I’m not sure if I’ll continue doing them in the future. ❤️
