Announcing the March 2025 Mini-Salon!
This month, Sarah and I are facing rejection, head-on
The first monthly, half-hour mini-salon with my friend and fellow writer, Sarah Kokernot, author of Your Wild and Radiant Mind was so great! ICYMI, Sarah and I are now hosting these mini-salons where we talk about creativity through a practical and spiritual lens. Sarah tends to focus her newsletter on the woo side of writing, but on the back-end she is very practical (she offers coaching to writers, which are filled with actionable tips, and gives excellent feedback). I tend to focus my newsletter on the practical side of writing, but on the back-end I am very woo, which you’ve probably gleaned from my frequent mentions on astrology and tarot. You can read more about Sarah and her work here.
Topics for the mini-salon will change every month, and paid subscribers are invited to send us their questions beforehand. This month’s mini-salon topic is on dealing with rejection on an emotional, practical, and spiritual level. Getting a no can mess with your self-confidence and it can make you spiral into thinking it’s some big sign from the universe that you were not meant for this. (Or am I the only one that is THAT dramatic about their work?) Rejection can also leave you feeling a little lost—what do you with this finished product, then? Sarah and I will talk about strategies on how to cope so getting a NO doesn’t mean the end.
You can sign up for the mini-salon here.
The Mini-Salon will take place every second Thursday at 12pm CST//1pm EST. After you sign-up, we’ll send you a Zoom link for this month’s salon which will be held on Thursday, March 13th. There will be a recording available for paid subscribers.
The Mini-Salon is included in paid subscriber benefits. If you are a paid subscriber, you get into the salon for free as a subscription perk.
If you are a free subscriber, the mini-salon is offered as a pay-what-you-can event with $15 as the suggested fee. You don’t have to pay both of us, just whoever you subscribe to or feel like giving that day. I also want to stress that the suggested fee is a suggestion. We welcome other amounts! My venmo is inesbellina but we’ll also send you our Venmo info before and after the event. Thank you for supporting our work, our expertise, and making these salons sustainable throughout the year.
Paid subscribers are invited to send in their questions to us beforehand. We’ll tailor our conversation to your questions and show up prepared with advice and resources. Please DM your question to us by Monday of that week (March 10 for this one). Thanks to those who’ve already submitted! We can’t wait to chat about them.
Can’t make it on the date? Paid subscribers can watch the video for up to a month after the live event.
