Do you love planning and thinking about the next day, month, year? When I did the StrengthsFinder this past spring, visionary came out as one of my strengths. I gotta admit, I am a sucker for vision. If you have yet to do the StrenghthsFinder, do it. It will give you understanding and clarity on who you are why you are the way you are. It will help you lean into your strengths and structure you life around your strengths. Invaluable information. This time of the year, we are in the thick of planning for the upcoming year. We talk about who we are serving, how can we help the people we are serving, and where our passion lives…what makes us light up. Business is a lot like life….we are all on a journey and it is constantly evolving. The key, I think, is to hold it loosely and be willing to let go of expectations and lean into growth and change.

From such an inspiring shoot this week with Dianne from Deeply Rooted. She is such a gem. Golden from the inside out. We will be sharing this special Master of the Craft feature soon.

Wow, is Thanksgiving next week? Oh my goodness. Here are links and things we are inspired by at the beginning of the holiday season.

Char: What I am currently reading and loving so incredibly much.

Crystal: With holiday dinners right around the corner, I’m planning to make these little additions of tabletop prettiness.

Karen: Some interesting hair confessions…

Bethany: Feeling deeply inspired and touched by the words and stories of this young foster mother

Much love…stay inspired.
