Thanks, Toni and Colleen for your alignment–you really made this deep, funny and totally supportive and educational all at once. I love hearing Colleen’s voice–it’s a terrific expansion from my experience of her through her writing. Colleen: perform and talk MORE! I heard you are doing a TEDx talk–can’t wait to see the video!

I love the simple reframing of flipping the situation with the way we look at it–how do we get ourselves out of this mode into that one–PERMISSION first. Thank you for that, Colleen. Even though the hiatus might have ended by now–I am sending you MORE ROOM wishes to continue as part of a regular, roomy life for you.

[...] Interview at the Get Inspired! Project Thanks to the awesome and ever-generous Dyana Valentine, I was interviewed by Toni Reece for her year-long project aggregating the insights of all kinds of people into what it takes to stay inspired. We had great fun (Toni is a master interviewer!), which you can either read or listen to at the project’s website. [...]

Isn’t Toni the best at this? Doing more and more interviews really makes me appreciate the mad skillz of great interviewers, and Toni is right up there.

Thanks for the kind words, Cindy. It’s probably taken even longer to appreciate that the taking-long is part of the fun, but hey, that’s kind of awesome, too, in a meta-sorta way.

Happy trails to you!

What a wonderful interview! Really enjoyed your story, Colleen, and hearing about your process – flipping perspective, giving yourself space, finding what works. I was also encouraged to hear right off the bat that you spent three years or so figuring what it is that you do – gives me hope that I may figure that out for myself one day.

And great interviewing, Toni, as always.

Thanks so much for conducting this interview, Toni. I admire the entire project and am delighted to see so much sharing around inspiration, which hopefully will prove helpful to lots of people.

But selfishly, it’s a gift to have someone ask such tender and probing questions. It really helps me to focus, learn and grow—from my own experiences!

Continued good luck with the project. You are awesome!
