Sign up today! Your Own Personal Fairy Tale — held Tuesdays June 16-July 28 from 6:30-8:30pm EST (no class June 30). Online via Zoom. 👀 NEW DATES!

What if, at the edge of change, we are not lost—but standing at the threshold of a story waiting to be told? In this six-week online class, we’ll step into the landscape of fairy tales—where the ordinary becomes enchanted, where transformation is inevitable, and where meaning is carried through symbol, archetype, and image. Together, we’ll wander beyond the limits of linear thinking and into the rich terrain of personal mythology, where new ways of seeing—and being—begin to take shape.

Facilitated by Erin Hallagan Clare (I&A Founder).

So much of creative work is about the bridge between the internal and the external or, ask Georgia O'Keeffe says, "making your unknown known." Sometimes it's a matter of making your unknown known to others; often you first have to make it known to yourself. That is the brave work of the artist.

How are YOU working to make your unknown known?

This clip from Rick Rubin's 2023 conversation on the Daily Stoic Podcast touches on an interesting (and sometimes scary) part of the creative process: What happens when you experiment with a new or different method in your practice? What is learned or revealed when you step away from what always works and move toward what is yet unknown?

What role does experimentation play in YOUR creative process?

Led by Ali McGhee of the The Enneagram School of Awakening , the series asks, "How does the Enneagram relate to creativity? And how can it fuel our creative process?" In this series, you’ll use the Enneagram, a wisdom tradition that has long been employed as a tool for deep personal growth, to engage with and transform creative practice.

Sessions will include a teaching portion, lively discussion time, and prompts and activities to get you exploring how the Enneagram can feed your creativity. Each week will be themed, and you can join at any time – for one session or the full series.
