Good morning!

Once again I’m in New York City, traveling for work & fun with my husband and toddling little one. I don’t think I could love the hustle bustle of the city any more than I do.

And, at this time of year, added to that fluttering energy and ever-amazing people watching are bright blue skies, crisp winds, and blossoming trees. To me, it’s pretty heavenly.

This week I have an essay at Design Sponge, a site that I adore – all about creativity, women’s entrepreneurship, and stunning design innovation.

I’m writing about women Unhooking from Praise and Criticism – a topic that, as many of you know, is very close to my heart, and is so important for anyone doing creative work, or anyone engaging in that ultimate of art-making activities: crafting a life.

Please come visit the essay over at Design Sponge, and share your thoughts in the comments here.

(And – stay tuned for my next post about the behind-the-scenes story of the lovely new pictures in this article! It’s a good story.)

With love,

Tara

    Thank you Tara 🙂
    Your work quietly leads me to open spaces and places that whisper love and peace that echo through my soul.

    To any woman who is considering joining Playing Big:

    It’s the best thing I have ever done for myself, my family, my career and my inner mentor dreams. Now, a year post course, I am headed toward the life I always dreamed of, but didn’t think I deserved or could have.

    Bit by bit, the pieces of the course–particularly managing my inner critic and regularly re-visiting how to unhook from praise and criticism–these pieces took root in my life. I am stronger and although my voice is quieter, it has its own unique power that I am learning to tap into.

    When Thoreau told us to “Go confidently in the direction of our dreams,” he might have continued on by adding, “if you reach walls you can’t climb, start Playing Big, and you, too, can claim your heart’s greatest desires.”

We are on a mission to help you realize your playing big dream.
