  • Retreat Series Ep. 2 - The Path to Your Creative Calling

    10/14/2021

    In this week’s episode I share with you my Empowered Creatives Framework. It's the process I use to reflect on my practice, commit to my vision, and leave a legacy. The framework is a 3-Phase Process that helps artists to have clarity on their creative calling, feel connected, and confident to do the work they love.   When I was designing the Empowered Creatives Retreat, I broke down the steps I took when I had my first breakthrough. I sat down and thought about why I had clarity, confidence, and deeper connections as a result of going to Ghana. This framework takes you through my 3-Phase Process that will help you slow down and tap deeper into your creative calling.    I created this framework so that your doubts and hustling will be a thing of the past, so that you can feel empowered to have more joy, inspiration, and freedom. You have something important to share with the world, and this framework will help you have an unshakeable commitment to it.   After you go through my framework, you’ll build a sustainable creative practice that feels authentic. We go deeper on all these practices through the transformational experience at the retreat in Ghana. Sound like something you’d want to experience?    I’d love for you to join us on our next retreat!   Check out the details at kindredcreativesco.org/retreat-details to apply for the Empowered Creatives Retreat.    And if you have any questions, just send me a message on Instagram @victoria_yawa. I’d love to chat more about if this retreat is the right experience for you.

    10/07/2021

    It’s Not Just A Dream Vacation In this special retreat series, we’ll go behind-the-scenes of the Empowered Creatives Retreat experience, insight to why I created this retreat package, why you need to have this experience NOW, and how this retreat will change the game for your art practice.    The goal is for you to get a deep look at the Empowered Creatives Retreat. By the end of this four episode series you will know what happens on the retreat, if the retreat is right for you, and the support you’ll get from me when you’re ready to travel to Ghana. Oh, and I’ll also offer you an opportunity to travel to Ghana with me for the next retreat.   I’ve designed this all-women retreat in Ghana for black creatives and visual artists who want space for self-care, reflection, and artistic exploration. Oh, and finding a squad of other dope artists all while soaking in the beauty, culture, and inspiration of West Africa.    Sound like something you’d be into? Check out the details at www.kindredcreativesco.org/retreat-details   I’d love for you to join us on our next retreat!    And if you have any questions, hit me up on Instagram at @victoria_yawa. I’d love to continue the conversation. Btw…. look out for the next episode because you’re in for a treat. I’m sharing with you my Empowered Creatives Framework. It's the process I use to find clarity, build a dope art squad, and have the confidence to only do the work that I love. This is something you can learn and use over and over again, and will experience on the retreat. See you then.
