a path of radical acceptance for colourful souls who feel muted

A colourful character who’s spent a large chunk of life muting my brightness to fit in. 

I was an expert fitter-inner! I demonstrated such skill that for 15 years others hired me as an image consultant to teach them how to fit in. 

This everyday lived performance caused chronic illness… the dissonance in my body zapping my life force. To “fix” this problem I went down a decades-long self-help rabbit hole trying all the solutions that promised fitting in AND feeling well, but I kept getting sicker and feeling lonelier.

Forced to admit defeat on the path of not enough-ness, I reluctantly stepped aside and found the path of radical acceptance I continue to deepen today. 

Fixing and fitting in is being replaced by regular check ins with myself and the present moment through wild creativity, deep listening and trusting each intuitive knowing that arises.

Some days this way of being feels beautifully aligned, playful and deep. Other days it feels like a chore. That is what makes it a practice.

Maybe you’re at a point in your journey where you absolutely know trying to fit in isn’t working for you either and building the radical acceptance muscle makes sense for you, too. If so, I’m here to walk beside you offering creative tools, come-as-you-are spaces and camaraderie along the way.

Hey, I’m Wendy!

what’s the first step?

Wild creativity is an essential part of radical acceptance. It offers access into the full spectrum of your being and aids in processing emotions, thoughts, feelings and urges.

Start by tuning in to yourself and acknowledging all the shades, tones and intensity of your colourful character. Grab some markers and place marks all over a page in response to whatever arises in your body as you acknowledge your full spectrum. Let your body guide this creative process moment-by-moment with little thought to what the final piece might look like.

I call this process scribble practice and offer detailed guidance on how to get started.

What if I’m not artistic?

If your five-year-old self could take a crayon and make marks with it, then this practice is available to you.

All abilities welcome here.

gentle reminder

Feeling like you don’t fit can feel totally overwhelming and hopeless. But you are a very important piece of a very important whole. You are here for a reason and without you the universe doesn’t make sense.

I share wildly colourful art and words of connection via snail mail once a month to remind you of this very important fact.
