Today I have experienced a most unusual hour which rippled throughout my day and into plans for my upcoming future.
I am a fan of books which say magic exists, go do that what you want to do, because that role personified, I play for a number of my friends, and in turn need that boost of confidence form time to time to go realize something I want but for some reason procrastinate about.
Having randomly come across Giada's Empowerhour invitation on FB a few weeks ago, I thought why not try this. I do not have previous experience of similar courses or tutors and all my ideas for the psychologists office have come out of carefully arranged television sets.
Giada booked me for a date trough skype, and today I had my first Empower hour.
My expectations where tainted by the tv sitcom psychologists appointment, I imagined the expectant mood to be somewhat somber and monotone, and more one way conversation where I talk to therapeutic effect, questioned by Empoweress, and these expectations where utterly foiled.
Giada is a warm, bubbly, intelligent and fast thinking creative, who emerged out of the flat screen and into my life, embracing my situation, providing perspective on to it from several angles, and than using the small information I gave to generate new progressive ideas for furthering my projects, as well as creating a logical , feasible working plan /structure, to achieve and realize my first idea, but also going as far as suggesting how I can expand on my project.
Being an artist, i have multiple ideas for numerous projects , but sometimes it is in those mists of ideas that i get entangled with and which block me from rationally planning execution of projects. Giada worked with me in the role of a fairy godmother/curator/the hidden side of my own brain. Being her self an artist as well Giada, immediately took flight with my concepts and provided possible expansions on the concepts, how to make them more digest able / how to make them function, what else to do for the ideas to be more completely realized.
She mathematically calculated how much time I can give to art per week, considering my other duties, and calculated how long it will take me to make the desired amount of artworks for my show. She created simple solutions to a variety of different separate problems which in my mind jumbled up ,and she helped identify my priorities in my jumbled up wishes and plans, so that i do not waste so much energy and time on less relevant elements.
Mostly I was surprised how very personal this session was, in the sense i really felt as if this Lady, who asked my to answer a few simple questions before our session, kind of understood my needs and her suggestions as to how I can progress are very useful, practical and immediate, without being complicated or involve any need to adopt or learn unnecessary new age philosophies or systems.
Do I think its worth the money? Yes.
I think this was a very exciting and useful experience .
