QUOTES

It was really powerful to look back to my 20s. And look at everything that happened and how I had viewed them as mistakes. As missteps as embarrassing even. And look at it with a sense of empowerment and know that I am thriving, because of those things, not in spite of those things. - Cris

I think the creative process is really spiritual and I think that when we're creating. I think any artist will tell you this, no matter the discipline. We're touching on something that is otherworldly, that is divine, just the way that ideas work, how inspiration works, how one day you sit down and just everything flows out of you... - Cris

Be the author. You are so much more powerful than you know. - Cris

THIS WEEK’S INTENTION

I intend to embrace the creative energies around me and bring to life the ideas that are courting me.
