What Is The Creative Return™?
The Creative Return™ is a framework for transformation—a path back to your creative source.
Rooted in Jungian psychology and designed specifically for women in midlife, The Creative Return is an invitation to reawaken your voice, vitality, and inner authority. It begins with the understanding that midlife is not a crisis, but a sacred threshold. A time when the soul begins to speak more loudly. A call to realign with what matters most.
This framework supports a return to self—to the creative, alive, and purposeful part of you that may have been buried under years of roles, responsibilities, and conditioning.
I currently offer The Creative Return as an 8-week live course for a small group of women, with a book on the horizon that will expand the journey for a wider audience. Whether experienced through the course or in future formats, the heart of the work is the same: to reconnect you with the deep wellspring within.
The Course: A Jungian Journey in Midlife
The Creative Return Course is a live, 8-week group experience designed to help you:
Break through inner blocks and self-sabotaging patterns
Reconnect with your authentic voice and creative power
Reawaken a sense of vitality, purpose, and possibility
Each session offers depth teachings, guided reflection, and creative exploration. We meet in a small group of women for spacious, 2-hour sessions that nourish both psyche and soul. These are not productivity sessions. They're sanctuaries—spaces to listen inward, integrate symbol and story, and reclaim what has long been yours.
Why Midlife? Why Now?
Midlife often brings discomfort, restlessness, and questioning. But beneath that is often a deeper truth:
You are ready to return—to the parts of yourself you've neglected or forgotten. To your creative essence. To a life of deeper meaning and aliveness.
Psychologically, midlife is the turning point between two halves of life. In the first half, we focus on building an identity in the outer world—career, roles, relationships, accomplishments. In the second half, we are called inward. Carl Jung believed that the task of midlife is to reclaim the lost or exiled parts of ourselves and move toward wholeness. This is our soul’s invitation.
The Creative Return framework was created to guide this inner process. It is the work I live and breathe, and the work that has changed my own life.
Why This Matters
The Creative Return™ is not just a course—it is a journey. Rooted in archetypal psychology and the soul's call to wholeness, it follows the deep inner path mapped by the Hero's Journey: the calling, the descent, the encounter with shadow, the reclaiming of sovereignty, and the return with the treasure.
This is not self-improvement. It is initiation.
In midlife, we often find ourselves in the descent. The roles that once defined you no longer fit. The ways you’ve survived—through perfectionism, people-pleasing, or overachievement—begin to break down. Beneath that unraveling is a sacred invitation: to return to the source within you.
The Creative Return™ offers a symbolic map and a supported space to walk that path. It is a way of answering the soul's call to come home to yourself. A way of claiming your voice and vision not from striving, but from deep inner alignment
The creative source is not about output. It is life force. Returning to it is sacred work.
