Ignite the world

What I don’t want to tell you
What I’d rather hide
What must be overcome

I’m scared. You too?
The smell in the air?
Rubber meeting road. Burning. Run. Hide. Avoid.

What’s the problem? What’s this current fear?

Launching my book into the world.
Sending up flares to spread my message far and wide.
Asking for reviews.
Continuing to show up for the book
even when I am ready to play with other projects.

What I want for the book:

Read it. Do the work. Write your book.
Change the world.
No more hiding your voice, your message, your power.

That’s what I want for anyone who wants to write a book.
The courage to do it. To open up your heart and share.

I return again and again
to why this book matters
why this book holds more strength and courage
than I do some days.

It’s time. It’s time for all of us to
Step it up.
I stand upon
my fears, my excuses, my inclination to play it safe.

I step up instead of
hiding behind.
Join me.
Let your bold moves and works of art
ignite the world with love and power.

Now is the time.
To send copies of my book to strangers
to ask for help
to keep pushing past outdated fears to get. my. message. out.

Even if it’s only one person in the world
whose life will be changed by my book
that’s enough.

What fears
will you disbelieve today
what bold moves will ignite the world?

Share your bold moves below.

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."
