  • Are you a creative professional looking for practical and simple strategies for setting clear expectations and boundaries that stick, and to make good decisions for yourself and your career without pissing people off? If so, then you're in the right place! Let's build you a more Joyful and Thriving™ life. We all want a joyful career in their business - lawyers, designers, yogis, accountants, architects, and everyone in between. And let's be honest - personal development is at the heart of entrepreneurship. You've got to be able to set the right expectations from the get-go. I'll help you do this by giving you the foundations so you don't have to Google it, and then specific prompts that will help you make aligned decisions. I've been told I am a breath of fresh air you didn't know you needed, and I am most focused on helping you be a joyful, laughter-filled, healthy human, which will attract the right clients, compensation, and projects you want. I've been living on two continents for over 17 years, make sleep my priority, and more than anything else: I want you to know that the life you always thought you'd have by now is so much closer than you think! Each episode will help you reflect on what you already know (intellectually), ask you questions you might not have realized you needed the answers to (emotionally), and then help you connect the two so you can get clarity about what you want. My mission is to help you get the clarity, confidence, and courage you need to build your life exactly how you want it, no matter what obstacles you think exist. ------------------------- 🥰 Find out more about what working with me looks like at sheilawilkinson.com and follow me over on Instagram @sheilamwilkinson 💌 Grab my FREE Plug and Play Email Templates for telling people what you need without burning bridges at sheilawilkinson.com/scripts What Would Sheila Say?® is an Original CreativesEd® Podcast.

  • Reigniting Creative Passions: From Burnout to Breakthrough with Mike Brennan {Ep. 74}
    2024/10/17
    In this insightful episode, you’ll engage with Creative Consultant Mike Brennan to discuss the journey of rediscovering and sustaining creativity in everyday life and business. Together, we explore the vulnerability of creativity, establishing a daily creative habit, overcoming societal pressures, and the therapeutic power of creative expression. Mike shares his personal transformation from ministry burnout to becoming a creative professional through a 365-day art challenge, highlighting the importance of reflection, small consistent actions, and systematic approaches to maintain creative momentum. Listen in to gain practical advice on integrating creativity into your life, reconnecting with personal passions, and leveraging tools like the Daily Creative Habit journal to foster continuous growth and innovation. 05:32 Mike's Journey and Creative Philosophy 13:17 The Daily Creative Habit 21:32 Rediscovering Art and Creativity 38:47 Integrating Life and Creativity 40:31 Overcoming Creative Blocks 47:13 Consistency and Prioritization 59:40 Resources for Creativity 👉🏽 KEY TAKEAWAYS Daily Creative Habit as a Solution: Mike emphasizes the importance of establishing a "daily creative habit" to foster consistency in creative work, especially for those feeling stuck or overwhelmed by other priorities. Everyone is Creative: The episode expands the definition of creativity beyond traditional arts, explaining that creativity manifests in various forms like organizing, cooking, writing, or even building systems. Overcoming Creative Repression: The podcast discusses how many individuals, especially lawyers and other professionals, suppress their creativity because of societal or familial expectations. The message is clear: it's never too late to reignite creative passions. Intentional Creative Time: Creativity doesn’t just happen on its own; you must intentionally carve out time and space for creative exploration, even if you’re living a busy or demanding life. Transformative Power of Creativity: The episode shares personal stories about how reconnecting with creative practices helped the speaker and others rediscover joy, passion, and a sense of purpose, highlighting how creativity can bring healing and fulfillment. 👉🏽 COMPELLING EPISODE QUOTES "I help people establish what I call a daily creative habit. It’s for those who want to engage with their creativity but have lost touch, or who have a creative goal yet struggle with consistency." - Mike Brennan "We need to expand our definition of what creativity is so that it’s more inclusive, not just confined to painting or performing arts. You can be creative in how you organize, cook, or even build systems." - Mike Brennan "So many lawyers are repressed creatives. They’re told, ‘You can’t make money with that. It’s a nice hobby but not a career.’ And then they choose a path like law, never realizing how creative they actually are." - Sheila M. Wilkinson "There was a time when you created something just because it brought you joy. What if you returned to that place, where your work wasn’t tied to clients or expectations, but simply to you?" - Mike Brennan "Creativity is about showing up, doing a lot of bad work before you get to the good, and going on a journey of self-discovery and curiosity." - Mike Brennan 📧 RESOURCES FROM THE SHOW Connect with Mike and Sign up for Mike’s free newsletter Grab your copy of the 90–Day Creative Habit Tracker!

  • Unplanned Hiatus: Navigating Life's Realities with Compassion and Clarity {Ep. 73}
    2024/10/03

    Ever planned for success but felt overwhelmed when life threw curveballs? I adapted and here’s how you can, too! This episode is all about my unexpected summer hiatus (whoops!) and the life-changing lessons learned along the way. I open up about personal experiences with setting boundaries, resetting expectations, and making critical decisions in real time. You’ll hear about what worked, what didn’t, and how I reframed challenges to move forward.

    Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by work or stuck in your current situation, this episode offers insights you can immediately apply to your own life. By the end, you’ll understand how to better manage time, communicate your needs, and shift your mindset for lasting impact. Don’t miss this chance to reframe your approach to career and life.

    Tune in for practical strategies you can use today as we dive deep into setting boundaries in your career, exploring practical strategies for resetting expectations for success and maintaining a healthy work-life balance. You'll hear valuable insights on making strong, confident decision-making in professional life and how to pivot when things don't go as planned. Discover proven work-life balance strategies that will help you thrive both personally and professionally, while building emotional resilience in business to overcome setbacks and move forward with purpose. This episode is packed with actionable advice to help you elevate your career and life.

    👉🏽 Key Takeaways

    Always Double or Triple Your Time Estimates: When planning tasks or events, overestimate the time required, as unexpected things can—and often do—happen.

    Use Your Own Tools: Even as a professional helping others, you need to apply the same tools and strategies to your own life during difficult times.

    Set Clear Boundaries: Whether in work or personal life, setting boundaries is crucial for maintaining emotional and mental well-being.

    Communicate Your Needs: People cannot read your mind; it's essential to communicate your needs clearly, especially when you're emotionally stretched.

    Treasure Relationships: Life is unpredictable, so it’s important to carve out intentional time for loved ones and meaningful relationships.

    👉🏽 Compelling Episode Quotes

    "If birthing parents remembered how painful it was, the species would have died out long ago—just like I forgot how intense in-person events can be!"

    "We don’t just flail through and keep doing the same thing. We change and shift in the moment, debrief, and make new plans."

    "I didn’t just wear my lawyer or social worker hat; I gave myself permission to experience grief moment to moment."
