Emelda: “I left my full-time job in 2015 and started my journey as a creative entrepreneur. I used to be at the Baltimore Office of Promotion and the Arts and by that time I had been in a series of jobs that were not my calling.

I also left that job because my daughter, who has specialized health needs, started to have problems with sleep. I was working full-time, homeschooling her and in grad school.It was overwhelming.

I feel like God always gives us signs and it was just sign after sign that it was time for me to move on and do something new and different.

After leaving my job, I did a lot of freelance writing and activist work through my other Instagram page: . Pray with Our Feet has evolved into a podcast and community that uplifts at the intersection of progressive Christian faith and activism.

I wasn’t as overwhelmed with work anymore, but I felt isolated. I couldn't just get up and go to a museum, or a play. I couldn’t hang out with friends, and so those friendships started to dissolve.

I talked to God about it, about the gifts I have in me and how I wanted to give and share them in community with other women. I wanted to know how I could do that from home while caring for my daughter.

Connecting with other women online was the answer to that prayer and the start of the community now known as Women Creatives Chat…

In 2017, three other women and I hosted the first in-person event for Women Creatives Chat. The event was centered around creative women using their voices, caring for themselves and coming together as a community."**

We all know about making a “to do list,” but let’s add a “DONE” list to the mix! I was first introduced to this concept by and absolutely love it. Here’s how to put it into practice:

💚

Reflecting on what you accomplished in spite of those obstacles, grab a pen + paper, and write out those wins!

💚

I’ll start - it’s been challenging for hubby and I juggling virtual learning for Nai alongside creative projects, but we kept going!

💚

Don’t beat yourself up for what you haven’t done, PAUSE + celebrate your progress, it’s all part of the process, loves.

💥YOUR TURN -

What’s creative work did you get DONE this wk. no matter what? Spill it in comments below! 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾 Cheering you on! ❤️

Even in these challenging times, when we are true to ourselves, our callings to create and spark light through our work, and voice, we remain rooted.

💚

The lessons are unfolding all around us if we are willing to pause, listen + awaken (thank you, God!). May we move not in force, but flow, centering alignment, not the rush of grind culture.

💚

Next Friday, I am releasing our first journal 📚 Power of the P.A.U.S.E. 🧘🏾‍♀️to help us all center our well-being and self care! Head to stories for the first sneak peak!

When we affirm what’s possible we shift our mindset from limitation to creation, and bring those visions into reality - one moment + step at a time.

💥

We’re leaning into this beautiful reminder from artist to embrace our inner GLOW.

🌿🧘🏾‍♀️🧘🏼‍♀️🧘🏿‍♀️🧘🏻‍♀️

Before you go, snag this Tip:

💥

Instead of saying “I can’t do this, or I don’t have the connections, network, etc.,” begin saying and acknowledging: “This might be tough in this moment, but I am learning.”

💥

How are you affirming what’s possible?

You don’t have to carry everything, all the time. As creatives and Mamas, we’re used to being there for everyone non-stop.

🦋

Remember, as I said earlier this week, NORMALIZE showing up from a place of abundance not depletion.

🦋

Cultivating wellness is also about understanding what we must release:

🦋

- Draining yourself for people who cannot be bothered when you need something.

🦋

- Mommy guilt (KNOW that you are doing the best you can for your kids in this moment, and that’s enough. ❤️

🦋

- Holding yourself to impossible standards while giving everyone else grace.

🦋

When we live from a place of mindfulness (awareness of the present moment), we see how all this disharmony shows up in the body (fatigue, irritation, diabetes, etc.)
and we want to RELEASE.

🦋

💥

Shedding is an act of courage not selfishness.

Our well-being is not optional - it’s essential. As the Mama of a child living with health challenges, and several family members navigating chronic illnesses, I understand the urgency of consistently supporting our mental wellness.

🦋

Today, , I am sharing 3 tips wellness tips to help you navigate the challenging times we’re living through. 👉🏾 SWIPE to snag the tips and click the link in the bio to read the piece in full. It was originally published on my friend Jen’s website .

“Audre Lorde, the brilliant writer and activist, told us decades ago, radical self-care is an act of political warfare, not selfishness. Therefore, focusing on mental health, particularly during times of widespread uncertainty is an act of deep love for ourselves.”

I remember lots of well-meaning people in my life saying how much would change when Nai was born, that I would have to “give up a lot.”

🦋

But I don’t believe our dreams have expiration dates; birthing her helped me re-discover my passion for creating: writing, speaking (now have a podcast which I co-host with my Mom ), shooting photos of the wonder I finding in nature, activism / organizing.

🦋

I can hear my Mom’s words now: “when you have less time, you do more.” She speaks from decades of experience - juggling full time work as an educator with being active in church, all while raising us with my Dad.

🦋

You see centering our creative biz doesn’t
de-center our kids - it expands our motherhood experience, and helps us show them what living in your creative power means.

🦋

Snag these Tips for Balancing Mom Life, Creative Biz & Wellness:

💥Develop boundaries: set aside consistent + specific hours of the day for your creative work, allowing yourself to operate from a place of flow and ease. Build in self-care anchors throughout your day (morning + evening meditation practice, walking, etc.)

💥When your 🎨creative work hours are over, eliminate distractions (silence notifications on your 🤳🏾phone, come off social media) so you can be fully present with your kiddos.
