Creative Weekend To-Do List

Posted by Kaileen Elise on June 11th, 2010

You will find as you look back upon your life
that the moments when you have truly lived
are the moments when you have
done things in the spirit of love.
(Henry Drummond)

Summer has arrived and creative weekend to-do lists are back! This past week has been filled with inspiring moments. Most notably was connecting with one of my biggest web heroines, the lovely and talented Gwen Bell.

Remember earlier this year when Kimberly Wilson interviewed me for her podcast ? Well, video chatting with Gwen was a very similar experience in that I was super nervous, thrilled and honored to be discussing sparkle and super powers with a woman who I completely admire.

Gwen and I first connected when I tweeted a link to my post about finding a mentor. Her insightful comments were helpful, but she blew my mind when she went a step further and offered to test out mentoring me remotely. Wednesday was our first chat, and I have been buzzing with ideas since.

I’m excited to carry the momentum into the weekend ahead. Here are a few of my creative to-do’s, I hope they inspire you to do something fun. As always, I’d love to hear what you’re up to these next few days.
