Where Art Meets the Soulful Journey
If I’m being honest, when The Soulful Journey first came to me, I thought my art and my guiding work were two separate parts of my life — one playful and personal, the other purposeful and meant to serve.
But the more morning pages I wrote and art journal pages I filled, the more I began to see it: they were never separate.
Every brushstroke, every torn scrap of paper, every mark made in my journals has been part of the same unfolding. The art I make and the truths I share are simply two ways of telling the same story — my Soulful Journey, lived in color and in words.
Soul Truth No. 1: I am being revealed to myself.
How My Art Holds the Soulful Journey
Art is where I hear my truths before I have language for them.
In the quiet layering of a page, I can feel the shape of a Soul Truth rising. Sometimes it’s a color that feels like home, sometimes a texture that holds a memory I didn’t know I still carried.
One of those truths — I am being revealed to myself — came to me last fall, during a retreat that quietly shifted everything.
It arrived not as something I invented, but as something I recognized — a truth that had been waiting for me to notice. That moment became the cornerstone of The Soulful Journey, the seed from which all the other Soul Truths have grown.
Since then, my art has become the way I return to that truth again and again. When I paint, collage, or layer a page, I’m not illustrating an idea — I’m inhabiting it. Each page is a conversation with the same revelation, a way of remembering that my unfolding isn’t a byproduct of The Soulful Journey. It is The Soulful Journey.
The Marriage of Paint and Words
When I create, I’m not just making something to hang on a wall.
I’m making a place to meet myself — to listen, to honor, to remember.
The same is true when I guide others through The Soulful Journey. Whether you arrive through a Soul Truth card, a workshop, or a quiet moment with one of my journals, you’re stepping into the same space I enter when I create: a space for truth without pressure, becoming without rushing, remembering without forcing.
The canvas and the page are simply different doorways.
An Invitation to Begin
If you’ve been feeling the pull toward your own becoming — the sense that something is stirring, even if you can’t yet name it — you might find that art is the gentlest way to begin.
You don’t have to be “an artist.” You only have to be willing to show up with curiosity, and let the page reveal what’s already within you.
That’s the heart of The Soulful Journey: finding your way back to yourself, one layer at a time.
Begin your own Soulful Journey here — a soft place to land, a gentle place to begin.
