In this episode, Dawn Bova, intuitive artist, best-selling author, nurse practitioner, and angel mom, talks about the importance of the creative process in healing. She uses the creative process to provide insight to deep soul work, and her mission, which I think is so beautiful, is to help women awaken after life’s darkest moments. This is a testament to Dawn’s strength and compassion. Her artistic journey was reborn out of the tragic death of her son in 2016 to an accidental overdose, when she found that painting brought her peace, calm, and serenity. Dawn talks about her authenticity journey and how she chose the ‘more stable’ path of nursing out of high school instead of art, and how for a long time she thought that wasn’t an authentic choice. However, the deeper she goes she realizes that it wasn’t a mistake, because it’s rooted in her purpose of helping people.
Take Aways:
1. The creative process is so important to our healing journey’s
2. Always bring light into the darkness
3. There are synchronicities everywhere and the messages we need to hear can even come from a line in a movie. What we focus on is what we get so focus on all the things you do have
4. When we’re open to receive, our messages find us no matter where we are or what we’re doing
5. We’re here to be happy. Slowing down and resting is what we need sometimes, it regulates and retrains our nervous systems
6. Sound is medicine, the right sound heals
7. Find your who’s who can help you do all the things you want to do as an entrepreneur, rather than trying to figure out how to do it all
8. Authenticity is based in our purpose, no matter what facet of life we’re talking about
9. Love people right where they are, even if they aren’t doing everything we want them to do
10. If there’s one thing we can do to make the world a better place, it’s to help each individual love themselves again or love themselves more
11. When giving altruistically, it comes back to us ten-fold. Putting a conscious thought out into the world of love and peace will ripple out. Join Dawn’s Ripple Experiment to ripple goodness and kindness out into the world.
