Recovery Is Not the Same as Restoration. Meet: Tricia Amidon

Creatrix Conversations, is a monthly free series on my Substack publication. Each month I sit down with a fellow Creatrix: a woman who is partnering with the divine to bring forth something wholly her own.

This month: a coach, writer, and mother of five who spent six years rebuilding her body, her faith, and her family after leaving a narcissistic marriage

Comment "DREAM" below and I will send you a link to the episode. (Be patient, no robots supporting me I respond to each person the old fashioned way!)

Every Wednesday I take my dog to a play date at a dogsitter’s house while I work from a coffee shop from 10-2.

I reserve my most creative work for that time. Something about being in a new space (away from my home where I can procrastinate with chores) and surrounded by people really works for creative writing.

Bonus: a friend joins me most Wednesdays to cowork on her thesis for her master’s.

(Suki is always so tired after her play date and naps on the drive home 😍.)

For you if: You're done with just reading and you want to start bringing the insights you’re having into practice in your daily life. You’d love to hire a coach to help guide you but you have limited resources so you just want to move forward with a small step.

Includes:

Two downloadable resources per lunar cycle: released on the 🌑 New Moon and 🌕 Full Moon. My downloads include workbooks, journaling prompts, printable guides, and meditations — the same tools I design for my 1:1 clients help you move what you’re reading about off the page and into your actual life.

Access to the She Who Makes Resource Library. Everything you need to be the Creatrix in your own life, growing by the month.

First access to workshops and Coven.

Last week, I went to the ER. It was a wake-up call.

My latest free essay on Substack explores the guilt and discomfort of resting without earning it.

Today I celebrate 12 years of continuous sobriety. I am so grateful for my sobriety, my life, and for today.

I wrote about a portion of my story in a guest post for another Substack publication called Learning Curve Letters. In it, I share about the day of my last drink, my initiation into recovery, and some of the lessons I’ve learned along the way. (For any fellow Sahara Sunrisers, you'll recognize the photos in this post.)

It is our divine birthright to create.

I believe we are here on Earth to experience who we truly are. Children of the Divine.

How do we experience who we truly are and who we want to be? Action. Doing is BEING in action.

We create desires and intentions to pull us into doing, so we can experience who we truly are.

But we forget that part. We think that the outcome is the point.

We start fixating on producing the outcome, and become doing doing doing machines.

Forgetting that all along, the point was to experience who we truly are, who we want to be.

But that's okay, I think forgetting is part of the design. It allows us to remember. To wake up to who we really are.

It's all part of the process - all part of this strange, mysterious, and beautiful Divine Game we play.

Devotional Planning is what I have created to give structure to this experience, and to put in reminders: to pay attention to what we're receiving in partnership with the divine. To remind us to celebrate who we are and what we accomplish as we play this Divine Game together.

In Coven, we practice this in a circle of women who are committed to partner with the Divine to bring forth something wholly our own.

It is magical and challenging. We forget and we remember. We struggle and we overcome. We create and we destroy.

If you are interested in creating something in partnership with the Divine, and playing this game conciously - join us this season in Coven.

Summer kicks-off with a seasonal ceremony where we create our intention. We take inspired and aligned action during our Flow Hours - coworking on Zoom. We track and give thanks for what we receive daily and weekly. On the lunar cycle, we reflect, refine, and re-align our actions. We celebrate what we're harvesting.

For more information, click the link in my comments or feel free to reach out to me to set up a call. My calls are spacious - I share with you how it works, we look at what you are creating. I don't believe in convincing you to join - I trust Divine Order and the women who are meant to be in this circle will be in.

Seasonal Opening Ceremony: July 7th. Join by July 6th.

Happy Full Moon! It's a Strawberry Moon tonight. Full Moons are great for reflecting, harvesting, and celebrating.

The concept of boundaries is a hot topic these days, but the word is often misused. Here is my take on loving yourself and others well by deciding and reinforcing how YOU will or will not behave.
