Your Story Matters | Daina Deblette

Your Story Matters!

Hi! I want to acknowledge what it takes to find yourself here (courage, bravery, curiosity... you name it). It's freakin' vulnerable. I get it because I, too, have a story. In fact, most of us do, in some form or another. I'll be sharing my story soon on the blog. First, please take a few minutes to share your creative shut-down story. As a thank you, I've created a free PDF download I'll be sending to your inbox within 24 hrs called (Re)Ignite Your Creative Spark. It's kinda awesome, and will help.

Want to skip sharing your story and buy the workbook to download right away? It's yours for only $17. Buy Now:

Creativity is something we all have, but many of us have experienced it being shut down or discouraged. It happened to me, too. By sharing your experiences, you are helping others feel less alone and reconnect with their own creative process through helping me create more supportive tools, resources, and programs.

If you know of anyone who also has a story they might want to share, please forward this questionnaire invitation link to them. I want everyone to have the opportunity to feel validated and be witnessed, as the simple act of telling your creative shut-down story (and knowing your story matters!) can have positive healing affects.

Let's get started!

What is your name?

What is your email address?

What is your earliest memory of having your creativity shut down or discouraged by an adult, family member, or peer? If there are other pivotal memories that left an impact, you can share them.

How did this experience affect your life and your self-talk around creativity?

Did you return to your creativity? Please explain.

If yes, in what form(s)? Click all that apply.

If you chose "Other", or if you would like to elaborate on your answer, please share more here:

What helped you overcome this creative block, if anything?

If you chose "Other", or if you would like to elaborate on your answer, please share more here:

How has this affected other areas of your life? Depending on your answer above, has (re/dis)connection helped or hindered other areas? Which areas? (ie. work, home, social, relationships with others/self)

How would you like your story to be shared? Your story may be shared to help others not feel alone, or to inspire them, either verbally (class, group coaching, podcast) or in written form (ie. blog, article, book).

May I contact you if I have further questions?
