8/5 12pm - 2pm PT Graduation
There will be breakout groups to connect with your sisters on these calls so we recommend attending live when you are able! That said, we know that with so many timezones and life obligations, there will be group calls where it is not possible for you to participate. We alternate 12pm and 4pm PT to make it more likely that everyone will be able to attend at least one each month. If it is the middle of your night or the middle of something else, know that this call will be recorded and posted within 24 hours.
If you are new to Zoom, you can join us using video or phone. To join by video online simply click the Zoom video link a few minutes before we begin. The application will launch to your computer. Follow the prompts and the meeting window will open. Make sure your video and audio are turned to 'on'. You can find a brief video tutorial here.
Reminders will be sent to your inbox two hours before each call. And call recordings will be posted on this page below.
“Our circles are an invitation to a women’s council. We invite you to prepare for the circle by having your journal, pens. Many bring a ball of red thread, special candle, even a shawl - how will you make this ritual your own? How will you show up? While you can come in your pajamas and it isn’t about dressing up, it can be fun to make it your own - sometimes with your painting behind you or something you want to share visually in the background with the group. While you may be in different places at different times, is there one special place in your art studio where you want to create your ‘circle space'? Many pets often make appearances and sometimes, nursing babies and kiddos or partners walking by. It is a window into our mutual worlds. We so look forward to being with you in this visual way. It is come as you are, but come intentionally to the cafe table!” ~ Shiloh Sophia
Muting yourself: βWe ask that each student mute their audio unless it is your turn to share in circle or you are asking a question. Sometimes we will mute the group all together as needed, but it is still your responsibility to be aware of what’s happening in your surroundings and to make sure you are muted. For those on video, you’ll click the microphone icon on the zoom menu bar to mute and unmute yourself. You’ll see a red line through the icon when you’re muted. For those on your phone, you’ll mute using your phone mute button or press *6 on your phone keypad to mute and unmute yourself.
Video Awareness:β Ideally your physical space is free from distraction, so you can sit, listen and take notes during our Circles. However, we know sometimes you may need to tune in from a location where other things are going on around you, like a coffee shop for example. Or, if you are “on the go”, walking somewhere, this is very distracting to others. If you have movement going on in your physical space, we ask that you turn off your video to be courteous to your fellow sisters. To turn on/off your video camera, you’ll click the video icon on the zoom menu bar.
Chat Usage: βThe Zoom Chat allows you to chat with your fellow sisters, and the circle Guides. You can say hello, share aha’s and inspiration. The Chat is also great if you are experiencing any kind of technical challenge, to notify our team so we can be of assistance. The chat function is available on the zoom menu bar which is typically located at the bottom of your video screen. If you want to message another student, you can also select their name and send your message to them personally instead of everyone. Selecting the appropriate person to chat with helps to avoid distraction of other students.
We appreciate you honoring these requests as best you can.

Your big WHY – What impact do you want to make on the world or those around you? This big why is what keeps you motivated and inspired. The why you do want you do or want to do. My big why is (What contribution and impact you want to show up for). 3 minutes
Your Beloved’s backstory I'm going to take you on a brief vision. Close your eyes, take three deep breathes in and out as you centre yourself. I want you to see or feel or think of you sitting in your favourite chair in your favourite place. You are feeling happy and fulfilled and joyful. Sitting across from you is your beloved. Who are they? Look at what they’re wearing, the expression on their face of delight at being here with you. What is their back story – what has gotten them to this point of wanting to be in relationship with you? What challenges are they facing? What do they care about? How old are they? What are they longing for? Take a moment to really connect with them. Write for three minutes
- I help/guide/counsel/teach______(your beloved – women, children empty nesters, Native Americans)
- To feel, do, be, access______(based on what transformation they are seeking – feel more connected to their creativity, learn how to be more loving and compassionate with themselves, create more income as an artist)
- And I do that by_____(how you help them with their transformation – painting, movement, inquiry, a 3 step process).
- The results they get are______(based on the shift they receive from being in a workshop with you) – more clarity, increased income, a practice of self care habits).
- And what I love seeing is the deepest change that happens for them is______(based on the deepest benefits - how are they leaving your workshop feeling differently about themselves or their circumstances - they have a renewed sense of themselves and are excited about the next stage of their lives).
- The themes/topics I want to share with my Beloveds _______ (self-care, writing prompts, videos with a creative process) that support them on their journey?
- The part of my story I want to share with my Beloveds of how the work I did changed my life is________________.

PROMPTS

Who What Where When Why How Wow Now! Mark your calendar for the daylong Catalyze: The Intentional Creativity® Approach to Online Technology
π§Ά Everyone will complete one required coaching session with Stella Mac (with an opportunity for a second.) Download the pdf of the 13 questions and answer them in your journal and then submit via the Submissions area. When you're complete you'll receive access to book an appointment in January/ February. Note - you must submit your Muse Painting in order to submit & schedule your first coaching session.
This is a exercise to begin detailing your potential offerings
What choices for Intentional Creativity experiences might be available on your website?
- Red Thread Circles
- IC Sessions - One-on-One or Groups
- 13 Step Painting Workshops
- 1 Day Workshops
- Longer Retreats
For each, play with theme & title, a brief description. Although not required for the assignment, begin to consider possible pricing for each event.
If you'd like to go further with this assignment, we recommend creating some graphics to go with each event that excites you!
For your required assignment you'll share three possible offerings that might be on your menu.
Note from Shiloh Sophia: Your Menu of Offerings is that oh so sacred beauty place that allows your Beloveds to intersect with your gifts - to actually choose and pay for your services! This can be SO FUN because you can do it from a dream standpoint as well as a literal standpoint, but the best is a combination of BOTH - things you know you are actually going to do and things you WANT to do. When I am creating a menu I leave placeholders - actual spaces - and ask, what wants to go in here? Think of your menu as something you can print out on one page and hand to someone, and that you can put on your website so it is seen digitally. Your menu may have links to dates for actual calendared events. The menu is different than the calendar as it shows all the options that are available from your medicine basket.
Prosperity & Action Plan (5/25)
Note that the required material from the call is included in the handout below. These three exercises are intended to get you in motion and committed to your work as you move ahead. Each can be just brainstorms on a single a page – it isn’t about how long, but the attention you put in.
Plus Congratulations from Stella Mac, who wasn't able to be on the closing call.
