Reframe to Create Joy Spencer

“Exposure is the birthplace of possibility” 
When my guest Lamarr Womble said this my mind exploded.  
It made me think about how many more possibilities I’m missing because I haven’t dared to expose myself to something new. 
How about you? 
Are you exposing yourself to new things? 
Could this exposure be the birthplace of not just new possibilities but of new dreams? 
This ability to expose yourself to new things is just one of the skills that Lamarr opened up my mind to in our conversation about the skills we need to make our dreams come true.  
Overall this conversation made me realize that this is a missing piece from what I’ve been sharing with you here at Reframe to Create.
While I always encourage you to create and get on with building your dream life, Lamarr shows that there is a step before that. 
Building a solid foundation of skills that will support that dream.  
We dig deeper into what this looks like.  
In this episode you’ll learn: 
The foundational skills you need to build to support your dreams 
The power of invested mentors who will create the space for your experimentation  
How your job can be a skill builder and supporter for your dreams 
And much more! 
If you’re ready to go after your dreams and create beautiful things, but can’t figure out why you keep getting stuck, Lamarr may have the answer to why.  
Listen in with your notebook and pen to enjoy an informative and inspiring conversation!

Do you hope that if you leave things alone they’ll sort themselves out? 
Maybe you believe the old adage that “time heals all wounds”. 
While this may be true for some things it’s definitely not true when it comes to your gifts!
In this matter, time will not lead to something better automatically.
In fact, the opposite will happen in time to your creating muscles.  
They’ll atrophy.  They’ll congeal.  They’ll get flabby and weak.  
In this episode, I share a very squeamish personal story about how I learned that you must happen to your life and your gifts or things will fester and go very bad.
I hope it inspires you to get up off the couch of your life and into your creating workshop!
Hold on to your hat!

What’s style got to do with any of it? 
Isn’t a focus on your style just a vanity project? 
Isn’t your expertise more important than the clothes you’re wearing?

How and why your style can tell a powerful story about your work

What can we learn from Ms. Celie of The Color Purple and Tyler Perry?
Well as it turns out…alot!  
These two are powerhouses when it comes to personal branding and creating in a way that allows them to be paid to be themselves. 
In this episode, I tease out how they both live out the Reframe to Create 3 Pillars of Getting Paid to Be You. 
These are about how to create with your gifts, own what you create, and tell powerful stories about it. 
Create. Own. Storytell. 
These are the three areas you need to focus on if you’re going to set yourself apart this year and make the unique contribution you were born to make. 
But we dig deeper into ownership and why it's non-negotiable. 
Listen in to see how they do it and how you can do it too!

Do you know your mission? 
When was the last time you reviewed it or did something that moved you toward it? 
Staying mission-minded instead of job-focused is something I advise my clients to do all the time.  
But it’s tough when you work in a job-obsessed society and in a job that might be full of constant change and drama. 
How do you stay focused and keep creating under these circumstances? 
You need to give your job a different role so that you can be about the business of being a creating maven who is making a unique contribution and getting paid to be you.  
In this episode, I’ve got two reframes for you on how to think about your job so that instead of you getting sucked into its vortex you make it serve you, your life, and what you want to create.
