When I was a little girl, I loved dressing up in women’s evening clothes. My mom would go to yard sales and buy old evening gowns for me. We lived on a small five-acre farm and my “dress-up” gowns lived in an old grain barrel made out of a cardboard-like material still smelling of grain. I would wear my gowns and float around our five acres holding court with our chickens and cows.
What I like most about that image is my uninhibited self-expression. I like that I felt no need to hide any part of who I was. Of course, I grew up, accrued 
some miles on my soul and wandered away from self-expression in order to protect myself from criticism.
Do you ever wonder where that joyful, candid and audacious child went? What would that child be like today if they weren’t protecting themselves? Let’s say you’re a business analyst, but you’ve always wanted to be a photographer. When you were a kid you took photos of everything and everyone. But now, you work and take photographs at special occasions–just for fun. What if someone told you that the photo you took of them made them feel special? What if they told you, that you made them look beautiful? What if your eye provided people with a precious moment of who they really were?
Imagine the happiness that you could create in the world by doing what you love. Tapping into that place would give you energy, fulfillment and satisfaction. Yet, the forces of criticism, realism, fear and the unknown are all against you. That’s where I come in. Evening gown and all. I partner with you to find that unbridled childhood self-expression. I will see the doubt, criticism and fear of failure and address it. Of course there will be obstacles, and we will improvise. Do you move now? In six months? Can you do it part-time for a while? Whatever.
If you’ve had your true work on hold, I want to talk with you. It’s time to build the life you want. Oh, and I may not wear an evening gown, but you can be sure that I have on a sweet pair of shoes!
