Spoken For
This piece is called ‘Put it out there’. It’s title came from the mindset I had to put myself in…
“Look, it may not be a perfectly made thing, but nothing is!
Just put it out there!”
I have just started a YouTube channel (check it out here!!) and have been experimenting with simple video editing tools. By no means am I good at making videos, haha but I figured I’d put it out there and see what happens. Let me tell you what happened… people loved it! I’ve gotten so many messages about how relaxed they feel when they watch me create; how beautiful it is to experience the process; and how fun it is to recreate it in their own way!
This gave me the push I needed to set my fears aside and Put It Out There! I can’t stress that enough. My motto is: Make a Mess. Whatever it is, make it messy! Gather your anxiety and your fear and your stress and your emotions and put them out there. Make Mess-terpieces!
That’s how my journey began…I took the mess I was dealt and made an even bigger mess, a more beautiful mess. And it’s gotten me here! Talking to so many of my dear TheraPatrons 🖤
I hope you can feel encouraged by this. My wish is that you put yourself out there and that you are received with love and support. Share yourself with the world, no matter how “lame / boring / weird / crappy / unprofessional” it may seem. Put it out there.
