The Power of Connecting to Ourselves and Each Other
In recent years, our ability to connect with one another was deeply disrupted. The pandemic restricted our freedom of movement, kept us physically apart, and created an underlying fear around connection. Now, more than ever, many of us are craving deeper connections, not just because of past isolation but because the world remains a turbulent and uncertain place.
Connection is vital—not only with others but also within ourselves. When we connect with who we truly are—our strengths, values, and heartfelt desires—we move toward a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling. Equally, connecting with like-minded people can be incredibly supportive, helping us see aspects of ourselves that we may not fully recognise.
Clarissa Pinkola Estés, in Women Who Run With the Wolves, speaks of the “handmade life”—one we craft uniquely for ourselves. More and more people are seeking to carve out their own paths, and community plays an essential role in that journey.
The Need for Support
We all need support. Yet, for many of us, especially those who are used to giving, it can feel uncomfortable to receive.
Just yesterday, I was working with a client who found it much easier to give than to accept help. But the truth is, support is essential—not just to keep us moving forward, but also to remind us when to pause, rest, and recharge. A strong network of support can make all the difference in helping us stay on track with our goals, whether in life, work, or creativity.
Stepping Forward and Owning Our Creative Gifts
While it might seem obvious to own our strengths and talents, many people—especially women—struggle with this. We’ve been conditioned to wait, be patient, and put others first.
Empathy and kindness are wonderful qualities, but they must first be extended to ourselves. When we embrace our creativity, we move away from fear and step into possibility and solutions. And right now, that is exactly what we need—not only for ourselves but for our families, communities, and the world at large.
Creativity is a powerful antidote to fear. It helps us believe that we can shape our own lives, find meaning in uncertainty, and make a real difference.
