Have you ever told yourself, "I'm just not creative"? Or perhaps you're an artist who once burned with passion, only to watch that flame flicker and fade. Too often, we learn that creativity must justify itself--measured by praise, practicality, or perfection. A dismissive teacher, a skeptical loved one, or the weight of self-doubt can slowly turn art into a performance, leaving the joy of creation behind. In this transformative guide, artist and creativity coach Carrie Schmitt leads you through nine sacred "temples"--each one a sanctuary for healing the wounds that have kept you from your creative birthright. Here, you'll explore tender reflections, soulful rituals, and liberating practices designed to dissolve perfectionism, quiet the inner critic, and reignite your relationship with Creativity as a sacred, flowing force--not something you have, but something you are. Along the way, you'll craft a personal guidebook filled with revelations, blessings, and artwork--a living testament to your unfolding journey. With each step, you'll remember what your soul has always known: Creativity is not a skill to master, but a spirit to embrace. And it has never stopped calling your name.

I've read an advanced copy of Carrie's newest book Awakening Creativity. It's instilling a continuing and deeper connection to trusting my creative intuition. An excitement and comfort that reaches beyond art supplies to my everyday connections.
Awakening Creativity is a welcome complement to my personal experience of growth being a part of Carrie's Flower Painting Club and delight filled as her previous books.
