Building a Creative Haven: The Story Behind "I Am Suzie"

Art, wellness, and the pursuit of a creative community

Have you ever felt a burning desire to share your passions with the world, but a touch (A LOT) of fear held you back? That was my story until one summer morning, fueled by coffee and newfound confidence, I created 'I Am Suzie.' Since then, I am transforming this digital space into a haven for my art, my writing, and my belief in the power of holistic wellness. Let me share how it all came to be.

The Spark to Website

The idea for "I am Suzie" had been swirling in my mind for years.  Painting has always been my outlet since I was a little girl, a way to process life's beauty and challenges. The thought of sharing my art publicly – and possibly even selling it – terrified me. Yet, the desire to connect with others who saw the world through a similar lens always pulled me back in.

 I envisioned a place where I could explore my interest in wellness practices,  inspire creativity, and perhaps foster a community bound by kindness and positive growth. I felt I had a story to tell, a message to share.

From Passion to Business?

You might be wondering, is 'I Am Suzie' a business? While it began as a passion project, a fire burns within me to see it grow. I am going to start selling my artwork here, and I envision workshops, collaborations, and a thriving community blossoming on this platform. It's a space where we can share our creative journeys, find a moment of stillness together, and support each other in cultivating mindful, fulfilling lives.

My Guiding Vision

At 'I Am Suzie,' I envision a world overflowing with creativity, kindness, and mindful living. I am striving to nurture individual expression, support personal growth, and foster a strong sense of community. Through art, wellness practices, and open dialogue, I hope to bring a spark of joy and a lasting sense of peace to all who visit.
