    TDH Minisode: On the way to that goal

    On this week's minisode, Kristyn reflects on setting and achieving goals. Sometimes we can get so stuck on achieving the goal itself, that we lose sight of whats more important – like WHO you are being on the way to achieving that goal. Kristyn shares some tips and questions she asks herself when attuning her own goals, and how she stays anchored with herself on the way to achieving those goals.

    TDH Miniside: Bringing presence to your creativity

    TDH Miniside: Bringing presence to your creativity

    In this week's minisode, Kristyn reflects on having to be "on" all the time, and the challenge of being pulled to work while also being pulled to be present. As a photographer, so much of the work involves practicing presence in order to capture what's unfolding before us. And paying attention to the world around us, being here now, practicing mindfulness - all of it fuels our creativity. It just takes practice, and Kristyn shares some of the techniques that have worked for her - including breathing & movement exercises.
