Impulses newsletter

Coach author artist Cynthia Morris Denver Paris

When I first began publishing my creativity newsletter, Impulses, in February 2001, I quaked with every time I hit ‘SEND’.

I was a new coach back then, and a budding writer. I was AFIRE with things I wanted to share about what it takes to live a creative life.

Over 20 years later, I am still in love with the creative process, and I love sharing this in my bi-weekly newsletter Impulses.

More than just how to be ‘productive,’ in my coaching and writing, I explore the inner adventure of making. Our hopes. Our fears. Our misbeliefs about ourselves and our abilities.

Readers of Impulses open my creativity newsletter right away because I ‘go there,’ beyond platitudes of time management and into the heart of why we make. I love exploring who we become as we write our books, mount our art shows and dare to be the creative kooks that we are deep inside.

Readers of Impulses share their thoughts:

When I read your writing, I feel less alone. I am very happy that you are in this world, creating and sharing. And I feel the sense of synchronicity that inspires me to make art-- only instead, I feel inspired to accept myself more. You speak and write in a way that I can hear through internal tantrums.

I read all of your emails, and each is filled with inspiring anecdotes, projects in progress, and lovely, super creative life suggestions.

I like how you talk about process and how you delight in the small things and in-between spaces. Just reading it makes me slow down.

I always enjoy your newsletters, and this one especially was so good! The answer you gave to the question about cultivating a creativity practice really resonated with me.

Creative Success Stories

"Being coached by Cynthia highlighted my unrevealed gifts. Our time together has revolutionized the way I work and lead my companies.

Her wisdom about creativity and productivity has added value to every area of my life from personal health to creativity and generating wealth.

I would have never imagined that this powerhouse of a creative would help me grow, connect to my heart and improve my companies in so many areas. Cynthia’s coaching is like supercharging a normal engine; there is no comparison."

John Marsh
Founder, Marsh Collective

"For years, I struggled with this belief that I wasn't good enough, that I wasn't a real writer, that I wouldn't be able to follow through. Your coaching and support opened something in me that had gone dormant.

With your words in my ears and my heart finding new excitement, I pushed the words across the page. My first novel is complete. You, dear Cynthia, helped me lay the dominoes. I can’t thank you enough for the motivation, the inspiration, and the reminder that I was meant to write."

Tabetha Hedrick
Author

"Cynthia has given me my writing voice. I can now say I am a writer. My newsletter readers tell me how much they love receiving it!

Cynthia has a great spark of life that just shines out. She engages in a way that encourages you to challenge yourself as a writer and is there to help pull you out if you get stuck or lost."

Ruth Dent
Artist

"Cynthia helped me drive a short story across the finish line. I recommend Cynthia if you want to learn about your own writing process in an experiential way and get practice on things like letting go of perfectionism for a greater goal."

Roseanne
Writer

"Cynthia helped me so much to develop a writing practice. I love her approach to combining creativity and action. It's gentle and effective and highly self compassionate."

Laila Atalah
Writer

"Because of my work with Cynthia, I have been able to embrace my artist's path and choose a lifestyle that truly speaks to my soul. Instead of trying to be and do everything, I now follow my true desires with courage, joy and serenity.

Cynthia is intuitive, down-to-earth, straightforward and honest. She can read between the lines, and she never lets me run away, give in and give up. Cynthia is a fabulous mentor and an amazing artist."
