About this FieldTrip
Do you love making lists?
We’ve all made at least a grocery list or to-do list before.
But what if you could use list-making as a tool to spark joy and discover your next creative idea?
In this workshop, I’ll guide us through a short meditation, creative writing prompts, and a series of list-making prompts for you to generate new ideas, spark new inspiration, and discover your next creative idea.
From joy lists to inspiration lists to places I’ve been to bodies of water I’ve swum in, the possibilities are endless!
Come with an open mind, a spirit of play, and something to write with.

How to make the most of FieldTrips
The FieldTrips experience is defined not only by what the host has to share, but also by how we show up individually and collectively. The way we show up impacts our capacity to be moved, inspired, and activated.
Show up fully
Get ready to be immersed! Engage with smiles, nods, waves, emojis. Share in the chat. Get cozy. Turn off notifications. Sip your favorite beverage.
Stay curious
Wear your beginner’s hat. Go with the flow. Welcome the stumbles and fumbles. Congratulate yourself for trying. Keep going!
Celebrate your host
Our hosts are members of the CreativeMornings community—just like you! Everyone comes to this with different backgrounds—a lot of our hosts have never done anything like this before! And we love that! Cheer them on when something goes awry and when it goes perfectly.
Support each other
We’re all figuring things out in real time. Celebrate, rather than critique emerging ideas. Cheer each other on as you try new things. Try “Yes! And…” in conversation.
Not vibing?
It’s 100% okay when a FieldTrip does not resonate with you. Pop out quietly and try another experience later. Fill out the survey with your feedback (no dms to host or chat commentary, please.)
