thoughts that guide my work…
The world has been dominated by masculine energy for quite some time. Since the first land worker built a fence around his cow, boldly asserting ‘this is mine, keep out’ we have moved from ‘community’ to ‘individual’.
We see a tiny percentage of the population owning the majority of the money, driven by greed and overconsumption; yet there are seeds of change. The pendulum is swinging back, and all eyes are on fashion and textiles to create a more harmonious relationship with Mother Earth.
Creative thinking is our most valuable skill as we move into the age of intellect, information, collaboration and the rise of artificial intelligence in business. Creativity can change the world for good. When designers get to choose who they work with we can create a future retail that is more about meaning than money.
Midlife is misrepresented as a time to withdraw, yet with thought and guidance it can be the gateway to a second childhood, eldership in the community, and abundance in a new rich and fulfilling life. When a midlife woman invests in her growth she becomes a powerful goddess that provides the perfect support to business and future creative rebels.
Entrepreneurship is a mind, body and soul transformation; it can be creative and fun if you can commit to new behaviours, discipline and powerful rituals of the past. Entrepreneurship in education is vital, so that the next generation of creatives can confidently choose to serve Mother Earth, eliminating waste, over consumption and poverty.
