In reply to Karel Hendee. Thank you so much for this. I'm sorry to hear you also went through a painful disappointment. And it does truly seem to be part of the path. I am so happy to hear you are back to being a full-time artist and enjoying it. Your art brings such beauty and blessing to the world.

One more comment. In the “Gathering Helpful Information” phase, I found it helpful to look myself in the mirror and tell myself that I am proud of myself for having courage to try something new, giving it my best, having the best of intentions, etc. etc. And really feeling that sense of honor and accomplishment coming from myself, knowing it as my truth. That is information and a gift we can give ourselves.

Thank you Max. I am once again, astounded at your authenticity and courage to dive deep into your experience and share it in such a meaningful and helpful way. I too just went through a very painful, confusing, and disappointing experience and am on a similar path in trying to grow and evolve from it. It meant so much to me to read your post, and feel affirmed and encouraged. A life-line really. The good news is that I am a full-time artist again, and happily in my studio sketching images of self-love, healing, and expansive joy. Bless you! Please know what a gift your art and your newsletters are to so many.
