Joanne T. Lauzon

You are creative.

Are you nurturing your creative energy?

You know you have creativity inside.
You can feel it, and practically hear it screaming to come out to play.

You don’t know where to begin. You don’t know what tools you need or how to use them.
You can’t seem to make space for some creative ‘me time’.
You wish you had less self-doubt and more creative confidence.
You know you could make things happen, if only you had guidance and support.

Hey, Friends! I’m Joanne, or ‘JoeGirl’, and I’m an artist + creative play coach,
here to guide you on your path to a more joyful, creative life.

Come discover the many ways to connect with—and nurture—your creative energy…

: Loving my new JoeGirl baseball tee, with lettering of my slogan commission by my sweet friend Hayley of @typeaffiliated ❤️

I’m wearing a unisex small—roomy, but not boxy. It’s a nice soft cotton/poly blend, with crisp white print.

: My boyfriend was right. 👏🏻

My little container garden has been a sweet oasis + escape, right outside my front door. 🌱

Basil, parsley, dill, rosemary, and stevia were planted by my sons for Mothers’ Day, and I am so pleased by their health + abundance 💕

Lettuce, green pepper + tomatoes were given to me by Shaun as wee starter plants, and I am loving having a hand in their growth. I’ve been learning how to prune tomatoes for optimum success—they should start to turn red any day now 🍅

Carefully pinching suckers off the tomato plants, trimming the basil at just the right branch, watering not too much and not too little, snipping herbs to enhance + embellish a meal… 🍽

Being full of wonder + curiosity about the magic of nature… 🦄

Being witness to a caterpillar chomp for days on—and take refuge in for its pending transformation to a Black Swallowtail butterfly—the parsley… 🐛🦋

Being flooded with gratitude for these thoughtful gifts from Mother Nature, by way of Quinn, Jake + Shaun… 🎁

Being present in the moment, laser focused on what I am doing, and nothing else… 🎯

It’s all so lovely ✨

: This week, I hosted a free live webinar, “Clear Your Path to Creativity.”

Over 300 folks registered from all around the world—New Zealand, Australia, Guatemala, India, and all across the USA + Canada!

During the webinar, we discussed:

✅ the five most common obstacles to creativity,

✅ how these obstacles might be showing up in your life without you even knowing it,

✅ and practical strategies to clear them.

⭐️ So many “A-ha!” moments were had…

💬 Vicky: This uncomfortable place where I am sitting is where my growth begins.

💬 Amber: I’m giving myself permission to make ugly crap!

💬 Jocelyne: The concept of creating space in my energy? A game-changer!

💬 Winifred: I didn’t realize how much play I was missing in my life!

🎬 Watch the replay for your own “A-ha!” moments, as well as a very special announcement + offer! ✨

: Time spent in creative mindfulness ought to be part of every day.

Yours + mine.
Everyone’s.

Release the impulse to create “art”, and instead, create presence + stillness.

Start with simple lines.
Let them dance.
Colour them, imperfectly.
Add marks.
Add words.
Just play.

👆🏻Watch the making of this in my highlight, “Mindfulness”

: A few days ago, somebody here on Instagram asked the question, “If you are running a creative business around what was previously your hobby, what new hobbies do you have?”

The question kind of struck me, and I’ve been thinking about my answer for several days.

While I was out on my stroll this morning, I realized that photography is—and has been for as long as I can remember—my unofficial hobby.

I often worry that by looking at life through a camera lens, or through the camera on my iPhone, that I am missing out on the “real life experience“, when in reality, stopping to capture a moment forces me to be completely present in those moments—more so than I might otherwise be without a camera in hand.

: There are a few people in my life who, when they ask me to be part of something, I don’t even have to pause before replying, “Yes! I’ll do it!” 🙋🏼‍♀️

Heidi had an idea a few months ago, to co-host an event to help women reconnect with what makes them happy—little moments of joy, tiny choices, to bring more smiles to our days.

Today we welcomed 14 women to Yoga Attic, where we walked them through awareness + reflection exercises, guided meditation + journaling, and an afternoon of mindful creative expression.

Where kindred spirits connected, friends reconnected, and commitments to choosing “Little Happies” were made.

My heart is full, my Spirit is happy… and my body is wonderfully exhausted!

Thank you to all of the beautiful women who attended, to our Yoga Attic hosts, Tina + Guillaume, and thank you, Heidi 💕

: Delivered this pretty little maison today. 🖌🎨🏡

Creating these special keepsakes for families—especially when they are saying goodbye to their beloved home—is some kind of wonderful gift… for the recipient, and for me.

It is my absolute honour + joy to illustrate your cherished homes for you. ✨

: Fresh PODCAST! 🎙

On July 6, 2021, my good friend Ryan Iler of Wonderment Games, joined me at CAMP for an Artist Chat.

We talked about being an insatiable “creative generalist”, and how we can try all the creative things, while at the same time staying focussed + true to our innate creative calling.

: Sometimes I need a little encouragement to take time away from my desk—which seems to be close to 24/7 these days—and make time to connect to my own creativity.

It’s so easy to tell myself “I’m going to take a quick doodle break,“ or “I’m going to pick up my paintbrush instead of my phone,” and before I know it, the clock strikes midnight and I’m still editing class videos.

The newsletter can wait.
The DMs can wait.
The next module in the program I’m taking can wait.
Writing my new course can wait.

You know what can’t wait?
My mental health.
My self care.
My Spirit.

When I put myself on hold, and push through business tasks using all my energy, there’s no room left for reflection, connection, consideration, compassion—for myself or others.

I become irritable, impatient, moody + emotional. Headaches are more frequent, my guts gurgle, my jaw hurts, my joints become stiff.

Yesterday, Shaun asked “What are you going to do for YOU today?”

So this is what I did, and it felt wonderful. The sun on my skin, the breeze drying my paints, listening to the birds, letting my wee container garden inspire my creative play.

Are you feeling tapped out and stretched to your limit?

How can you reconnect with yourself today?
