You may be asking what’s a dream board or vision board? 

Well simply put it’s a collection of images on a board (physical or digital) that represent your dreams/desires/goals.

I use the word vision or goals interchangeably with dreams. I have noticed that something the word dreams seems scary or impossible. Like a daydream.

But I want you to own the word dreams, and to own your dreams!

Often in society we’re told not to dream, or being considered a daydreamer is a negative thing.

I believe dreaming and using your creativity and imagination to picture possibilities beyond our current life, situation or thinking, better ways to live or do things is in fact a AMAZING thing!

Vision board formats

If you want to know more about making a vision board on canva, here’s one of my videos.

You can make a vision board on canva and upload it to you mobile phone as wallpaper or your tablet or computer.

You can cut images from magazine, or print them off from the web and stick these on a board.

You could stick images onto a wall or pin to a pin board, magnetic board or foam board and add new images when you feel inspired.

That way the board would be evolving with you over the year.

There is no right or wrong format, it’s all about what suits you best!

My Story

Over 7 years ago I was struggling with postnatal depression, worried about being made redundant on maternity leave – I got therapy but more than that I started to change my life. ⠀
⠀
I had to create a new dream for my life, then I had to connect to my reason WHY, my motivation to do it, finally I had to plan and execute!

Since then I went on to get my dream job as a swimwear designer for a top Uk retailer, I stayed home with my young kids, I got a job that fit my family, paid off a loan, travelled to Africa and South America with my kids and now created my own job I can do from home as well as It Starts With The Dream.

This is passion project where I get to inspire and help other women to create they dreams, overcome fear and doubt and take action towards their dreams! ⠀

WHAT IF YOU COULD…

Create a vision board that excites, motivates and inspires you?

Take the workshop

WHAT YOU NEED:

You’ll need two screens (or a laptop and a phone/tablet).

Watch the training on one screen and use the other screen/device to design your vision board during the workshop.

We’ll be using Canva to create the vision boards.

You can use another tool like Illustrator or even make a physical one live but if you choose that be ready with a printer and scissors to print and cut your images on the workshop.

Ideally come knowing your goals for the year, but if you don’t we’ll be working through some exersises and prompts that will guide our dreams and plans for the year.

The best setup is to take my course “Design your Dreams” beforehand so you can get clear on what you want from your life.

What could a vision board do for you? 

 

There is something powerful about seeing your dreams day in day out, represented in a. visual way.

You feel so much more connected to your goals and motivated to work towards them!

Your dream board should also serve as a guide or reminder of WHO you want to be.

To experience the dreams we have, it’s likely there are ways we will have to grow and develop our character, skills and beliefs.

Part of creating out boards will be encompassing the WHO we want to be, or really uncovering the WHO that’s already deep down.

 

Here’s a snapshot of my dream boards and dreams that came to be

What doesn’t a vision board do? 

Personally I don’t think a vision board is a magical unicorn that will make everything happen because it’s on a board.

To me it’s a powerful tool to inspire me each time I look at it. It reminds me of what I’m working towards, and the person I need to be. 

Im so grateful to Jesus for everything I have that’s come true, especially the miraculous ones like getting our dream home.

I’m also grateful he made us with the capability to dream, have goals and make plans to work towards!

As it says in Habakkuk 2 in the Bible “Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it”.

So a vision made plain and written down, put into paper  means anyone can pick it up and figure the steps to make it happen.

Have you found yourself waiting even though you believe God gave you a message to share?
 
Maybe he's even given you the plan but you still haven't launched?
 
Perhaps if you're like me in the past you've been watching webinars and downloading freebies but you're still not taking action.
 
It's quite common and I see it with women I've worked with.
 
So many women stay stuck in preparation mode because they believe they need more confidence, more clarity, more qualifications, or more time before they begin.
 
But that's not true. I believe you already have a seed to plant right now that can grow into something amazing.
 
It's already in you, because it's your life story.
 
In this week’s post, I’m sharing why the answer isn’t another course or another strategy, but learning to turn your Milestones, Mastery, and Message into your Mission.
 
If you’re tired of preparing and ready to finally take the next step, this one is for you.

What does learning a new language have to do with starting a business?

More than you might think.

Today I'm sharing a personal story about moving from Zambia to the UK as a child, losing my mother tongue, and what my colleagues taught me about courage, resilience, and being willing to sound like a beginner.

Because nobody becomes fluent by staying silent.

And the same is true when you're building a business, sharing your story, or stepping into a new season of life.

I'm curious 🤔 have you've overcome a difficult season in your life...

AND you've never shared what you learned because you're not sure anyone would pay for your experience.

You've done the healing.
You've gained the wisdom.
You've come through the other side.

But your story is still sitting on the shelf instead of helping someone else. 

Who can relate?

When things go wrong, it's so easy to wonder what you did to deserve it, or if God's somehow disappointed in you. But there's not always a reason, life happens. 

But I believe God will take what was meant for evil and then it for good.

He'll use it to heal you and make you more like him.

He'll use the same thing that broke you to help someone else come back to life. 

Your story matters.

I'm opening up 3 spaces for 1:1 coaching in July to help women uncover the treasure in their story and start using it to create a service or product to impact others.

Somewhere along the way I had equated being a Christian with everything going well and life growing in all the outward ways (status, money, influence).

And for some time that was my life!

✅I studied the degree I wanted at the University of my choice. 
✅I got a job in fashion (both competitive and hard to get into). 
✅Kept increasing my income.
✅I got married, bought a home and had kids.

But then…everything unraveled 😵‍💫

I experienced postnatal depression. Financial pressure mounted. We burned through savings trying to make ends meet. I developed arthritis and struggled with everyday tasks that should have felt simple.

And honestly, I was DEVASTATED and questioned God’s love for me.
But here’s the thing - while it was a time of intense pain and hardship, from that pain, my business “It Starts with a Dream” was born. I shared my journey, created planners, journals then courses and then coaching.

The truth is: God uses the hard things.

Every disappointment taught me something.
Every struggle revealed something in me that needed healing.
Every season of loss developed compassion, wisdom, resilience, and dependence on Him.

Nothing was wasted.

And that's what I now see in the women I work with too.

So many of them believe they're disqualified because their journey has been messy.

Because they're still healing.
Because they don't have the perfect testimony or the perfect plan.
But often the very things they're tempted to hide are the things God wants to use.

The marriage lessons 🔥
The parenting lessons 🔥
The career lessons 🔥
The wilderness seasons 🔥

You see, the calling isn't separate from your story.
It's built from it.

If you've been sensing that God wants to use your experiences to help other women through coaching, courses, or digital products, but you don't know how to turn your story into something tangible, that's exactly what I help women do.

I’m actually opening up (3) 1:1 spots, beginning July 1, to help you do this at a price point that won’t break the bank. If you’d like to learn more and discern whether this can work for you, send me a DM or book a call bit.ly/DCCalled
