    I LOVE your sketchbook. What a fabulous creative spirit you are! And articulate to boot. My goal is to join one of your trips to Europe. May have to wait awhile, but I know it will happen. Please keep the Juju coming.
    Love,
    Kathy

    Thanks, Kerrie! Look for some juju in the mail soon!
    Thanks, Deb! I’m so glad I bring giggles to your day. I’m having fun!
    Wow, Kathy, thank you! I can’t see my journals objectively so it’s good to know that they are pleasing to others. I want to show how fun it is and how useful to keep a journal in this way.
    I’d love to have you join me in Europe (or the US!)
    Thanks for the support!

    Thanks, Melanie! You can see how the juju is infusing me to make these! It’s tons of learning, fun and work, which is what I love.
    I have so much more to share and can’t wait to play with it more.
    Carl, Thanks! Your filmmaking is an inspiration to me and I plan to keep nudging myself toward my creative, kooky edge. Watch for cameos of you!

    You ROCK! These first two episodes are so fantastic — inspiring, fun, absolutely delicious in every way! Thanks so much. Melanie
    (I think the tongue thing — you know, hangin’ out in the wind for all to see — is pretty great!)

    Luv episode two of infused Juju!!! Wow, can’t believe you are doing all of that. I love your accordion moleskine notebook and watching your drawings morph into real life. Looking forward to episode 3.

    Cynthia, just love your videos! Didn’t know this 2nd one was up. Glad I checked, must have missed the email. I wish I could go to Amsterdam! It sounds like a wonderful trip. Hopefully will join you and your juju next trip. It must be hard to do your yoga pose, talk and film all at the same time…no wonder you ended up with your tongue out. Love it!

    Dora,
    Thanks for watching! So glad you love them. If you subscribe to my blog (upper left, under categories) you will get word of every new thing I produce!
    It’s not hard to do all at once. I only wish I could get better footage of the yoga – I’m learning!
    Thanks, Lisa! That’s my point – to share my enthusiasm for the sake of sparking yours.

Cynthia Morris novel Her Lisbon Colors

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."
