About the blog: On living a more creative life
We all have an innate desire to create something: art, homes, communities, businesses, and most of all, meaning. It all starts with a spark; it’s often subtle, but with enough space and the right kindling, you can light a creative fire that fuels inspiration and places you back in the driver’s seat of your life.
So, busy human, are you managing a demanding day job and a full life? Whether you’ve noticed that spark or you wish to find it, you’re in the right place. No matter which creative chapter you’re in, I wrote this blog to help you live a life full of creativity.

About the author

It’s nice to meet you! I’m Elida — creative soul, recently former public accountant, and mama of two. I started this blog in 2023 as a way to commit to creative self-expression, even with a young family and a demanding day job.
This space became a place to share what I learned as I learned it so that together, we could reconnect with our energy, our creativity, and our weird and wonderful humanity.
Why? Because the world needs more happy creatives.
A monthly letter for creative connection
Could your inbox use a little creative encouragement? Each month, I send a letter with reflections, journal prompts, and a peek into my creative process — plus a blog post round-up from the last month.
Use them to start a discussion, ignite an idea, or just to stay connected to your creativity.
