This is on my big list of business upgrades to buy, but if I could win one that would be amazing. Go see @homsweethom post for the deets. I’ll be happy if you win, too! #febipadletteringgiveaway All the lucky symbols: 🍀🐇🌈:

We get to create the world we want to live in. If we want our world to be more inclusive, include. If we want to have more abundance, be grateful. If we want to have more joy, celebrate each other. I’ve been in conversation with many different people this
JacquelineWolven:
We chose small. The small cottage in the woods. The small state. The small family. The small work. The small income. All for smaller problems and the option to live more intentionally. Everything is about choices. I don’t regret ours. • • • • • #mindful #

And this is good because… This and that… Yes, and… And? ⭐️⭐️⭐️ My word this year is “and”. It’s an exploration in holding two ideas at once, being open to possibilities, creating connections, and… • • • • • #affirmation #affirmations #oneli

NOTICE: EVERYONE IS ON YOUR SIDE. One of my narratives that run through my head – the story I tell myself – is that no one likes me. It’s a story from childhood. Like really little. I know it isn’t true. I know it isn’t. But my head does that and whenever

I used to have this playful whimsical self. I created so many fun things that I just pushed out into the world. I sent out Mail Art (I’m in an anthology of Mail Art), designed posters that I hung on telephone poles, I made notes that I dropped on café tab
JacquelineWolven:
Everything I’ve been reading and listening to lately has been reinforcing the idea that we need to stop paying attention to what other people think about us. @theellenshow @oprah @anipemachodron @msrachelhollis and @beyonce all are saying it isn’t importa
JacquelineWolven:
Who do you need permission from? Why do you need permission? What are you waiting for permission? All of these questions came up the other day and I had to paint a permission slip for all of us. Hint: you don’t need anyone else’s permission. • • • • • #sk
JacquelineWolven:
Is it just me or the constant demands to be on and available cause panic? Texts on Saturday nights, emails on Sunday mornings, people stopping you when you are in the produce section – all of it with the expectation that you are ready to drop everything y

I’m awake. Literally and soul fire wise. 2018 was difficult. I shared with a friend that I felt like I had been in a coma. I was reeling from threats of violence against me, the unveiling that not everyone does have your back, my husband’s accident, and m
JacquelineWolven:
Thank you Ms Hopkins, my fourth grade teacher. You were giving me a life skill every time you told me to keep my eyes on my own paper. You knew I was smart enough and you knew I could do the work. You also knew that I just wasn’t confident in myself. I wa
JacquelineWolven:
And. That’s my 2019 word. When I told my husband he gave me a puzzled look. Now he totally gets it. It’s about language. It’s about expansive thinking. It’s about connection and possibilities. I wanted to focus this year on my language and thinking to dis

The difference between I want to go to Hawaii and I am going to Hawaii is the difference between zipping up your coat and slipping into your swimsuit. “I am” is powerful. It is what you are doing. It is your focus. It isn’t maybe. It isn’t dreaming. It is
JacquelineWolven:
This year has been something. I’m ready for a Fresh Start. The highlight reel: 💍We got married after 30 years of being together. Henry Wilder turned 1 and both Greg and I have spent a lot of quality time with him which is so worth it. I got hit with
JacquelineWolven:
My husband and I are going through the 36 questions to fall in love and one of them is to describe your perfect day. And I just lit up thinking about a day I had at Turtle Bay alone in Hawaii years ago eating fresh fruit and drinking the best Kona coffee

Yesterday I basically hung up on someone who was actively complaining (got off the phone fast - I’m a bitch, but I’m not rude). It was empowering. Then I listened to @elisejoy IGTV on goals and she talked about how she let the few negative folks drive dow
JacquelineWolven:
Are you doing a little goal setting? I’ve been thinking about 2018 and what didn’t work, what I want less of and what did work and what I want more of. Things that are making it through the shuffle are less talking about small things (people, small proble

Getting ready to wrap a few things. Our holiday giving is very small... time with one another being my favorite gift. After all these years, I know for certain it isn’t about things. May you have all the time you want with those you love and alone (my gif
JacquelineWolven:
So many things changed for me this year and I know that will continue. The gifts don’t just happen in the holidays and, for that, I’m grateful. 🎨Jacqueline Wolven

Are you choosing your one word for 2019? I was at a friends house for dinner last night and she asked the women gathered if they had a word in mind and none of them new about this tradition. Instead of a New Year’s Resolution you choose a guiding word - s

Because it’s the season of magic and light I’ve been thinking about all of the secret dreams I have. Things I want to do that I just keep mostly to myself. But what is the point of that? How can I make them happen if I just hide them? Here are just a few:
JacquelineWolven:
Always be learning.
JacquelineWolven:
I don’t know about you, but I need more wonder in my life. I need to be filled up with the majesty that is happening around me. From the Good Words Card Deck: We are not too old to have wonder. The universe is vast and largely unexplored. Just the beauty
JacquelineWolven:
Are you a Grinch of a giver? I’ve been thinking a lot about being a good giver and being a Grinch giver. A Grinch giver is a reluctant giver. They give because they have to, they feel pressured, they feel pushed into it and it doesn’t come from a place of

My husband and I were talking about how people seem to think that when they are online they are talking to themselves behind some kind of shield. They don’t seem to understand - even after all this time - that they are broadcasting their opinions out into
JacquelineWolven:
Do you need permission to slow down and do less? I just sent out my weekly TinyLetter and I give you all the permission to do less (not that you need my permission). What are you doing to do less to enjoy this season more?
JacquelineWolven:
What are your little worries? I tend to worry about whether I blew out the candle or turned off the stove. ✨ Whatever your worries - May they be small.

This is our little team. He and I have been together 30 years. He’s a wood worker who makes beautifully crafted things (and just about anything I dream I want). He’s also my super helper in all things (and always has been). What I love most is that we are

Today I launched my Patreon and Etsy store! It’s amazing and scary to launch something out into the world, but I’m doing it anyway. I’m also helping you slay overwhelm if you get my TinyLetter. #thankyoupatrons @sarahmartinhood @ourdailycraft @eileenbjenn
