Find YOUR Community - With Kaylan Buteyn Founder of Artist/Mother Podcast

Here is your fresh steaming cup of Weekend Inspiration - You are not Alone Find YOUR community!

Some of the best I can give you in life, not just motherhood or being an artist but in LIFE! Find YOUR community!

There is a lid for every pot and you are not alone.

It is lovely friends and beautiful people who lift you up and encourage you to go beyond what you have even imagined for yourself. I have been fortunate enough to have a supportive community with many creative friends, and we all support and encourage one another and are proud of one another’s victories.

The impact of community has altered my life in so many positive ways, it is difficult to express my gratitude in words to you on this page. All I can tell you is this: surround yourself with these people who will love you and support you. Together you will all do great things, beyond even what you see in yourself today.

How do you find these people you ask? Let’s get you a lid for your pot!

Well first, you must make a list (lists are my favourite).

Describe yourself: interests, activities you enjoy, beliefs, pastimes, age, identity, occupations you are in or aspire to be a part of.
