It’s that time again! In this video I take you along in another seasonal planning vlog as I sit down to plan my autumn. I talk about all the ways this summer was pivotal for me, the decision to get a part-time job and making a shift in my creative vision and direction.

I'm so so excited about this new adventure, and I hope you'll come with me!

In this vlog, I take you with me to my favourite local café, to sit and do some novel writing in their garden. I also talk about what my summer has been like so far and what I'm working on in my creative business. Since it's Sweden, we also have a debacle with the weather deciding to rain on me.

It's time for another seasonal planning vlog! Summer is starting, and in this video I sit down to reflect on my creative spring and plan the summer ahead. I also share tips for doing your own reflections and planning, and talk about how summer affects us in our creative lives.

Beginning a creative project is thrilling - and challenging. I've started many projects, and as a creative coach, I've helped many creatives start their projects. In this video, I bring you with me on a spring walk through the forest and talk beginnings. I share the three most common challenges I see creatives facing in this stage, and how to navigate your way through it.

Are you a blogger, artist or writer sharing your creativity online? Do you want to improve your photography with some small, simple tweaks? Then this video is for you! When I started blogging in 2016, I knew very little about photography. Over the years, I’ve taught myself the basics and learned to take better photos.

Good photography can make a huge difference for how you and your creative work is perceived, and it can be a fun, creative part of sharing your art with the world. In this video, I share my five best photography for beginners tips to quickly take better photos!

Do you celebrate your creative milestones? As creatives, many of us don't. We don't celebrate the steps on the way, the behind the scenes milestones we hit. When we celebrate, it's the things that are valuable in other people's eyes: our results.

But I believe we should celebrate our own creative process just as much, if not more. In this video, I create a milestone board to celebrate running my creative business full-time for one year. I talk about what I'm proud, memories, and lessons learned.

All creatives feel uninspired sometimes. We hit points when things feel off, we feel disconnected from our vision and unclear about our direction. When this happens, a good check-in with our creative inspiration and direction can bring back so much clarity and motivation.

So in this video, I take you through four steps to check in with your creative direction. These steps are also the four parts of a new course I'm working on: The Creative's Compass.

It's that time again! Spring is starting, and it's time for another seasonal planning vlog. In this video, I take you through reflections on how winter went, how our energy and creativity looks in spring, choosing focus areas and planning your spring. I also share how winter went for me, and what I have planned in my creative life this spring.

This year, I set a goal to cultivate a life of writing. After a year with no fiction writing, I’m ready to make writing a priority in my life again. In this video I talk about content writing, freelance writing and book writing. I share six things I’m doing this year to cultivate a life of writing, that you can do too if you want to be a writer, and live a writing life.

A good plan makes everything easier. I'm an avid planner, have gone through many different planning systems, and created a planning process that works really well. In this video, I walk your through my entirely planning process that I use in my creative business and my creative work. I talk about yearly planning, seasonal planning, content plans, Trello, monthly planning, and weekly planning.

As humans and as creatives, we are constantly changing. Our identities shift, our interests change, and with it, the vision for our creative lives are in constant development. Lots of us are thinking about the year ahead right now, and what we want in our creative work.

In this video, I tell you about losing my vision, reflecting on the past year, and my intentions for the year ahead. And I talk about what it’s like to form or change your creative vision, for projects and for your creative life.

We live in a world that would prefer us to always keep going, going, going. But regardless of what hustle culture says, we need rest as humans and as creatives. Rest is a natural part of the creative process, and to be happy, fulfilled and good creatives, we need to allow it to be.

In this video I take you with me on a snowy walk to a place I like to go when I'm feeling stressed or tense, to find rest and calm. I talk about what rest looks like in this season of my creative life, and how we can embrace creative rest.

Winter is just around the corner here in Sweden, and it's time for another seasonal planning vlog! I love planning my creative work in tune with the seasons, and in this video I take you along as I reflect on my autumn, and choose my creative focus for winter. I also share some planning tips and talk about how our energy and creativity tend to look during winter.

I have something to tell you. For a while now, I’ve been working on something new, and it’s time for me to tell you about it. So many different parts of my creative work and my view on living a creative life are coming together in this. It’s a space for creating in tune with the seasons, for finding and holding onto the joy of your creative process, for creative community, and gentle accountability in your everyday creative life.
