Tough (Question) Tuesday: The 100th Question Celebration!

Published by Tara Sroka on December 7, 2010 in Art, Guest Blogging and When I Grow Up. 2 Comments

Today I have something fun for you – Michelle Ward the When I Grow Up Coach has a super cool download in honor of her 100th Tough Question Tuesday and yours truly got to contribute a piece of art for it. The question I signed up for was, “Do you believe in passion?”. I choose this one because everything I do and create is fueled by my passion for creativity. It really spoke to me and I think we all have the key to unlocking our own passion. I even stepped out of my comfort zone to create this design too – I actually painted it with watercolors! Since I work with the computer all the time it was a nice refreshing departure to create something with my hands although I did add the other various elements in with the computer. So please stop by Michelle’s blog to say hello and download the entire high resolution Tough Question Tuesday document – lots of other fabulous artist have contributed art pieces as well. Thanks Michelle for letting me participate – you have no idea how you have helped me flourish this past year. YOU ROCK!

So, do you BELIEVE IN PASSION?

Summer Memories Guest Blog Post

Published by Tara Sroka on July 13, 2010 in Guest Blogging, Michelle Underwood, Scrapbooking and TSD. 0 Comments

I’m excited to share my guest blog post all about Summer memories over at the When I Grow Up Coaching blog! When Michelle mentioned she was going on vacation and needed guest bloggers I jumped at the chance right away! I didn’t have a theme or particular topic when I committed to it but I knew I would come up with something. Since it’s Summertime I’ve seeing and reading lots of people’s summer stories and it got me thinking of my own memories – how they are important to capture and document. All of our memories are important to document but there is something special and magically about summer memories.

For this blog post I worked on a new layout (using Michelle Underwood‘s new kit That Was Yesterday) capturing one of my favorite summer childhood memories – spending time with my grandparents. Most summers when I was young I would spend time in the Poconos and my grandparents would come to visit. The photo in this layout if from a mini golfing outing with them. I have no clue who won the game but I know I won just by being with them!

Make sure to share a special moment from summertime in the comments section on the When I Grow Up blog by July 24th at 12p Eastern and be entered to win a custom designed scrapbook layout from me of that memory. You can also pick a different topic/theme or other special milestone as well. And if you like how that comes out feel free to do a whole book!

And for anyone reading this who doesn’t know about the fabulous, Michelle Ward aka The When I Grow Up Coach, she helps creative people devise the career they think they can’t have – or discover it to begin with! I recently started working with her to help me reach my career goals and just to kick my butt into gear overall with what and who I want to be. Michelle uses a dose of empathy, a shot of butt-kickin’, a wagon full of enthusiasm, & a crapload of inspiration to help her client’s figure out their passions, career options and the possibly out-of-the-box career ideas they might have never thought of before.

I hope you all enjoy your summer so far and are making some wonderful new summer memories.
