Can I ask you something? Do you ever feel like you're trying to force a creative routine that just doesn't fit how YOU actually create? Like you're following someone else's process and wondering why it feels so hard? Here's what I've learned — not everyone creates the same way. Your creativity has a personality. And when you understand it, everything gets easier. That's why I created the Creative Archetype Quiz 🎨 It's a free 5-minute quiz that helps you discover your unique creative style — your strengths, your challenges, and exactly how to channel your energy into consistent, joyful creative expression. There are 4 archetypes: 🟠 The Connector — You create for connection and shared experience 💜 The Seeker — You create through curiosity and exploration 🌕 The Creator — You create to bring bold ideas to life 🔥 The Fearless Phoenix — You create through transformation and emotional depth Which one sounds like you? 👀 👉 Take the free quiz here and find out Once you get your result, come back and drop your archetype below! 👇🏽 I want to see which archetypes are showing up most in our community — and it's such a beautiful way for us to get to know each other on a deeper level. 💖 — Meka

Creative Besties, we’re doing something a little different for our next Premium Art Journaling Class! Instead of simply creating a page together, our monthly sessions are going to start exploring different techniques, supplies, and creative experiments that you can use again and again in your own art journaling practice. And we’re kicking it off with Watercolor + Salt: Creating Organic Texture & Flow. 🎨🧂 We’re going to play with watercolor and salt and watch what happens when we give up a little control and let the materials do some of the creating for us. I’ll show you how different amounts of water and salt can create beautiful textures and patterns—and then we’ll take what we’ve created and turn it into an actual art journal page. And remember, this isn’t about everybody making the exact same thing. I’m teaching you the technique; your page gets to become yours. 📅 Thursday, August 27 ⏰ 7:00 PM Eastern 💜 Premium Members If you’re currently a free member and you’d love to create with us, you’ll need to upgrade to Premium to attend the live class and access our Premium art journaling sessions. Premium Besties, grab your watercolor, some salt, and your journal. We’re gonna see what happens. And you already know—ain’t no Creative Police. 😂 — Meka

A juicy little page for making room for something you want more of. Not a five-year plan. Not a manifestation assignment. Just one small thing you’d love to taste a little more of in your life. 🧺 Ingredients: - Your art journal - Pink, red, green + black paint, markers, crayons, or colored pencils - A scrap of paper or old book page - Glue stick - Black pen or marker - Optional: washi tape, white paint pen, or anything else calling your name 👩🏾‍🍳 Directions: 1. Make a loose pink or red shape somewhere on your page. Half-circle, triangle, wonky blob — we are not auditioning for the Creative Police. 2. Add a strip of green along one edge to turn it into your version of a watermelon slice. 3. Tear a few pieces of scrap paper and layer them around or behind your watermelon. Let some overlap. Let some hang crooked. 4. Add little black watermelon seeds throughout the page. 5. Now choose one thing you want more of right now — joy, rest, adventure, courage, play, creativity, peace, whatever comes up. 6. Write that word inside one of your seeds. Add a few more seeds with tiny words, doodles, or marks that remind you what that could look or feel like. 7. Finish the page with the words: “I’m making room for more ______.” 💭 Optional Reflection: If this started showing up in my life a little more often, what would I notice first? ✍🏾 Example Quote: “I’m making room for more PLAY.” ✨ Creative Garnish: Add white doodle lines, tiny dots, messy handwriting, or a splash of another unexpected color. And if your watermelon ends up looking like a pink taco with seeds? Honey, keep going. 😂 Ain’t no Creative Police. Share your page in the community. We love to see where it blooms. — Meka

Go find the most recent one and give yourself that gift this week. It's inside the Classroom — look for Creative Reset for the Soul. You deserve to reset.
