Why anger matters. It wouldn't let me post this to my stories, so taking it as a sign it's for my grid. Share this with the women who need to know it. Your fire is important. Your roar is vital. Your expression is needed, now more than ever. 🔥

I just don't f*cking care anymore.

And why should we? Did we ever?

Written in a late-night rage against the machine, after another attempt to make myself palatable, searchable, digestible.

Here's the thing:

I just don't care.
I never did.

And I don't think that's such a bad thing.

👊🏻

The artist is a valuable resource to any society.

I fear we risk losing this, unless you do what you came here to uniquely do:

Create.

❤️

Do you honestly care about any of this?
I believe we've all got bigger fish to fry.

#ArtistsDontCare #Writing #BringBackOriginality

There is a cyclical nature to all life, including us.

I try not to force creativity, but instead practice keeping my heart soft, my mind open and my mornings spacious enough to follow any thread that pulls me.

The sun has been laying lower in the sky lately, and a quiet relief finds me. Creative Intelligence sounds louder these days; as though my perception feels sharper than it did during a busy summer haze.

Monday.

Sitting in my garden on a late September morning, sipping a cup Guatemalan cacao, "attempting" as usual to persevere with my yoga practice, when a creative impulse to write came through me.

With soft music plugged into just one ear, half-listening to the birds tweeting around me, I wrote a reflection on a more recent merging of my worlds that had once felt like total opposites.

For years, I've held a real grief of not honouring my truest self; my artist.

This is a story I'll deepen into over time.

But slowly, I've been bringing the gap between what I do for work, and what I do for play - in a way that feels authentic, meaningful and true to who I am.

The words came through in one stream of consciousness, and with no forethought.

When I finished, I felt complete, then noticed the date:

September 21st.

Ah, The Equinox. 🍂

A time of the year to find balance, harmony and marriage within our opposing forces.

Consciously, I hadn't been paying attention, and yet another part of me still became imprinted by this shift of season.

This teaches me, ever deeper, that Creativity is always weaving through us; carrying us through different stages, themes and cycles whether we're aware of them or not.

When we're quiet enough to listen, and brave enough to follow our creative impulses with curiosity, we come into relationship with creativity as an expression of Creation.

We were never separate from this force.

No matter who you are, or where you're going, Creative Intelligence lives within you too.

Here are some snippets from those reflections. ✍🏻

Let me know which slide you resonate with most 💛

#Equinox #Creation #Writing

Where you place value is subjective. If you're struggling to grow in a certain area, you're probably not investing in the services and people that are going to help you break through the limitations that cause you to procrastinate, misalign your values with your actions, and prolong your own suffering.

AKA:

The very reason you're hesitating to invest in support to grow is likely the same reason that you actually need it.

Pass it on to a friend 👀

💛

You hold yourself back from following your artistic impulse because you've been focusing too much who you AREN'T YET, rather than who you are right now.

Let me tell you... 👇🏼

💛 Art is not about what you produce.

It's how you connect with the world around you.

You do not need fancy skills.
You do not need lots of time.
You do not need any experience.

These things create THEMSELVES when you begin to accept that your art is an expression of who you are, today.

Not through masterpieces, but micro-motions.

Because guess what?

Who you are today is valuable.

Your perspective is valuable. ✨
Your (he)art is valuable. ✨

And when you start sharing your unique expression with the world... 👇🏼

You tell your subconscious something important:

YOU are valuable, too. 🔥

There is no such thing as ready.

Create weird art, today.

#YouAreACreator
#CreateWeirdArt
#CreativityIsLife

I've learned art doesn't need an entire day, though it's something we often tell ourselves.

"I'll get to it after I.... When I....."

All this does is prevent us from creating.

Art wants to happen in between and throughout every other moment of your life.

Make it easier to create every single day.

When you're busy, when you're tired, when you're lost, when you're sad.

Have your supplies where you can see them.
Invest in tools that make your life easier.
Find a community that encourages you.

Tiny actions make big differences. 🎨

Your creative soul will thank you.

It's cool to care about things, because we only get one chance here 💫

While you're worried about what people you hardly like will think about your fullest expression, someone is taking their last moments here.

Don't waste this opportunity.
Share your (he)art with the world.

Be kind to yourself, and do the thing that matters. ✨

It's here 💛 The Artists Way with Cacao 2026 🌞

A 4 month artistic journey to reconnect, reclaim and transform your creativity from the inside out.

Last year, I ran this program for the first time and it changed my life; alongside the participants that joined for the ride.

Together, we'll work through the limiting blocks that are standing in your way of creating, connecting, exploring and thriving. 🎨

A journey to laugh, to cry and to learn how to connect to something greater than ourselves in pursuit of your most expressed, alive version in this world.

It's a tender, loving dig through the terrain of our innermost psyches, together. 🌎

Because that where your gold is waiting. ⚡

I understand that real transformation happens on a somatic, embodied, heartfelt level - which is why I've woven in ceremonial cacao and weekly meditation.

A synergy of ceremony and structure to hold, contain, guide and support you as we journey into 2027 softly, sustainably and with a community of creatives in hand.

If you're creatively stuck, unsure about where you're going next, or simply want to play, expand and explore the vast creativity available inside of you, welcome.

This has been crafted with so much love, care and intention.

📢 PS: you do NOT need to be an artist to join.

But a gentle word of warning:

You may just consider yourself one, by the end 🔥

I'm so excited to share this experience with you.

Comment your interest,
I'll send you a direct link 💛

With love, gratitude & creative growth,
Martha x

I notice that regardless of my growth, I still feel the pangs in my belly and the butterflies in my chest when I share something meaningful with the world.

It's uncomfortable, every time, but I know it's a sign that I'm on the right track. 👇🏼

Because we cannot escape discomfort. It's a part of the human experience.

But there are *two* types,
And one is worth following ~ every single time.

The ego wants you to stay the same.
The soul wants you to grow.

If something doesn't stretch your edges even a little, you might be depriving yourself of an expanded capacity ~ for life, for impact, for art, for love.

With a little repetition, you become a little more discerning in choosing the type of discomfort that will propel you forward & upward. ⚡

Resilience grows through repetition. 🌱
So go and do the f*cking thing.

We are ready for you. 🌹

💛

If this sparks something in you, please share your reflection 💫 Is this familiar to you, or do you have trouble discerning between your inner voices?

Swipe to read my recent musing. 🖋️

I hope you will share your (he)art with the world.
