Welcome to my Study, Savor, & Support Each Other CHAT on Substack!

Let’s Get this BOOK PARTY started with our 1st Book Selection! 🎉📚🥳📚🎉

Welcome to the Study, Savor, & Support Each Other CHAT for The VICTUS Method: Synergy of Science & Self! 🎉📚🥳📚🎉 Check out our 1st Book selection below!

Welcome to the Study, Savor, & Support Each Other CHAT! 🎉📚🥳📚🎉

In last week’s Post, I announced that I would be using my Substack CHAT to host a group for Writers, Artists, & Creatives like us, to have deep conversations about the Books that we choose, so we can implement what we learn, and unearth our truest, most Authentic Selves.

Yes, we will Study, Savor, & Support Each Other in our Creative Pursuits…

But this will NOT be some uber-serious, stuffy exercise.

Every week, we will take one Chapter and do a deep dive to STUDY the practical methods that are recommended to support our minds, bodies, and/or emotions, to pursue the Creative work that we choose.

And I’ll provide Journal Prompts to help us in our private journaling, so we can put the knowledge that we’ve gained into practice.

Having said that, I’m also a firm believer that self-improvement should not be too serious or boring.

We can use fun & humor to build sustainable habits.

And we should SAVOR the experience!

We should enjoy our Creative Journey, in the present moment, no matter how much progress we’ve made!

So I propose that we focus on SUPPORTING each other!

Let’s:

  • Have fun together;
  • Share our triumphs;
  • Vent from time to time — we’re human after all!
  • Take a lighthearted approach to journaling;
  • Grow the CREATIVE GENIUS inside all of us! 💐🌺🌷🌸🌹🌻🌼

Let’s SHARE OUR WORK!

Yes, there’s power in allowing our True Self to be seen!

  • With no pressure to perform or pretend to be farther along when we’re not.
  • That means sharing drafts, if we’re comfortable.
  • Sharing unfinished, imperfect work.
  • Whatever we feel we need to share, we can share, to be supported by other Creatives who “get it.”

And, when our work’s finally finished, we can share our Final Posts, Notes, Music, Art, whatever we’re proud of, so that we can Like, Comment, and/or Restack each others’ work.

This is how we can come together, to grow through our own individual efforts, and feel the support of a kind & supportive Creative Community, too.

If that sounds good to you, then please join us & say hello!

To start, we’ll be practicing THE ARTIST’S WAY by Julia Cameron.

If you’re not familiar with Julia Cameron’s book then you’re in for a real treat.

This is the 12-week Program for Journaling & Artist’s Dates that Elizabeth Gilbert has praised so much, she’s said, “Without The Artist’s Way, there would have been no Eat, Pray, Love” — Elizabeth’s global sensation that went from being a NYT bestselling book, to being a Julia Roberts movie. It’s the seed that sprouted Elizabeth’s lifelong Creative Career!

If this practice was able to help fortify Elizabeth’s mindset, to be brave enough to share her writing with the world and live a monumentally successful and fulfilling Creative Life, on her own terms, then…

Why not try it for ourselves?

That’s my thinking: “If it’s good enough for her, if it’s worked for her, why not try it, to see if it can help us to be true to our Creative Self?”

We’ve got nothing to lose, and so much to gain.

It’s part of our Evolutionary Programming.

Yes, we cannot be Human and not-be-Creative!

We are hard-wired for creativity.

Nature made sure of that.

Otherwise, our species wouldn’t have evolved.

We wouldn’t have survived if we weren’t able to create: Tools. Language. Stories.

Indeed, what is an Artist? A human who creates.

That’s the only criteria.

Making money — while preferable — is not a requirement.

Being “Perfect” is not required, either.

In fact, in the INTRODUCTION to The Artist’s Way, I absolutely love how Julia Cameron tells us her own story:

In the most authentic way, she makes no effort to hide the fact that she struggled with alcoholism, to the point that she became concerned she might not be able to experience the same level of creative success if she quit drinking. As if her creative power might disappear.

But she was brave and did it anyway.

She became sober and — with the help of her Morning Pages — she found she could Unblock the inner dialogue that was keeping her in her own way.

I love how this proves none of us have to be “perfect” to be successful creatively.

And it’s precisely the messiness that’s in our Morning Pages that can free our creativity and enliven our spirit.

Yes, We are all capable of Creativity — regardless of Our Personal Beliefs

A Note:

I know from reading some reviews of Julia Cameron’s work that her personal belief in God has made others shy away from trying her program in the past.

Indeed, JC gave her book this subtitle — The Artist’s Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity.

However, in the edition that I have, she also emphasizes that believing in “God” is not required or expected for her 12-week program to work.

She says, “Do not call it God unless that is comfortable for you.”

She recommends substituting the word “God” for whatever resonates with us personally, whether that’s “flow” or “Mind” or “Source” or “Universe.”

Or, she says, if none of those apply — “if you remain forever an atheist, agnostic — so be it.”

In this way, I think she opens the door for Believers and Non-Believers alike to be open to trying her creative practices, to see what resonates with us as individuals, and let go of the rest.

This is important to me because I want everyone in the Chat to know that they are welcome to participate however they would like, to honor their own personal beliefs.

What matters most is that we come together to STUDY, SAVOR, and SUPPORT Each Other on our unique creative journeys.

I resonate most with the Connection we can all feel, to ourselves and to other people when we create and share our creations.

It’s amazing to

Envision words or art or music in the privacy of our minds;

Craft them with our hearts, hands, and words;

Share them with the world; and

Feel that amazing feeling of understanding and empathy that’s possible when other people are touched by what we create.

It’s like a little bridge that connects us, when others see themselves reflected in you.

And so healing when we see ourselves reflected in them.

Plus, I love the idea of helping each other to be brave — to get over our Limiting Beliefs, so we can all be our Authentic Self.

I don’t know about anyone else, but for me when it comes to living authentically, it’s about damn time! 🤣

Let’s CHAT & grow the CREATIVE GENIUS inside all of us! 💐🌺🌷🌸🌹🌻🌼

Inside ALL of us, there’s a Creative Genius who’s dying to grow & bask in the sun!

I often ask myself, “Why are you getting in your own way?”

I often tell myself, “It’s imperative that you STOP ignoring your true, Authentic Self!”

And it’s not only me.

I want to scream at the top of my lungs, to absolutely anyone & everyone who’s willing to listen, “The WORLD needs MORE of the real, authentic, & CREATIVE you. Yes, YOU!”

ALL of our minds, bodies, & spirits are dying to grow our creativity!

Don’t believe me?

Then, I dare you to see if this resonates:

It’s a recent Note, written by , a fellow Substacker who writes the Bone Fire Newsletter.

(And can we please admire her handle “@ poutdracula”? As a lover of all things spooky, I just love that ♥️🧛‍♀️!)

But, I digress…back to her Note:

Check out the # of Likes: 421.

Check out the # of Restacks: 53.

Check out the date Kate posted it: August 8, 2025.

Do you get what I’m trying to show you?

Do you see what I’m trying to say?

It’s now August 22, 2025, and this Note is still being commented on, shared, and loved.

By ALL THESE PEOPLE!

Why?

Because we are all STARVING for Creativity!

Me included!

I Liked, Commented, and Shared Kate’s Note, with the following Restack:

Why is this sooo incredibly soothing to me?

The idea that an artist took the time to document the creation of all these colors in such an intricate way, with so much love and care is so amazingly beautiful.

Especially when seen from the perspective of our hectic, relentlessly achievement-obsessed, go-go-go world.

Yet here we see what happens when we slow the fuck down and learn to appreciate beauty.

To see it so clearly we can reproduce it.

To savor each color’s ingredients, like a delicious recipe.

Artists really are blessings to the world.

They bring out the beauty in everything, even color.

Don’t YOU want to experience that kind of devotion to LIFE, in all of its technicolor glory for yourself?

Not as an Onlooker who can only admire art from afar, but as The Artist who gets to freakin’ CREATE it?!

Don’t you want to be The Artist, to feel that creative spark, to embody the experience of creating from your own imagination, and sense that miraculous connection with the deepest parts, buried inside yourself?

I know I do!

When WE are the Artist, we get to express your own Creativity, to give birth to it.

It’s why I do my creative writing, and publish my own science fiction series, The Obsidian Chronicles.

Making art is the glorious embodiment of BEING IN LOVE WITH LIFE itself!

But it takes more than a passing appreciation to make this happen.

It takes devotion.

It takes time.

And it takes more than a fertile mind. It takes so much love and care.

Because…

There are weeds in the dirt, in the muck of our lives.

There’s the doubt, the inner criticism, the imposter syndrome, the plethora of False Evidence Appearing Real — the F.E.A.R.s — that have to be yanked out of our hearts, minds, and emotions until they’re gone from our spiritual soil, so we can allow our uninhibited, Creative Self to pierce through the muck, to grow onwards and upwards, to finally SHINE IN THE SUN!

But, even then, we know the FEARs are gone only temporarily.

Until the next variant of weeds pops up.

Until the other pests descend.

What hope do we have if we try to do this alone?

What hope do we gain if we do it together?

It’s a slow & steady seeding that I plan to plant — to grow not only my single solitary garden, but a worldwide Creative Garden, full of every color imaginable — so full of creativity that it can bloom and blossom in ALL of our hearts.

That’s why I’m devoted to exploring all the different methods for fostering our Creativity.

Yes, I’m willing to look everywhere for anything that can help us to open our minds and broaden the scope of what we think is possible.

I want us to see our creativity so clearly that even the blues are no longer named a simple “blue,” but take on such different hues, tints, and tones, that we can name them by their distinct names, like the Russians have two distinct names for “light blue” and “dark blue.”

Like, the Inuits of the North American Artic have 52 distinct names for all the variations of snow and ice that they can see.

Yes, their sight can teach us.

This is the wisdom I’ve gained, from studying them, culturally:

1. When you change how you see,

what you see changes; and,

2. How you see changes not only who you are,

but who you could choose to become.

Don’t you want that, to have that kind of miraculous transformation, in how you see YOURSELF?

I do.

I want to discover what I am truly capable of.

But that can be scary.

We all know the immense amount of self-doubt we can have.

To create anything brings out the Inner Critic — in fact, mine are so numerous, I call mine “wraiths.”

Do you think I want to battle them alone?

Nope.

Lucky for me, I don’t have to!

And neither do you!

Starting next week, I will be using my CHAT to host a group for Writers, Artists, & Creatives like us, to go deep & unearth our truest, most Authentic Selves.

This will be an on-going, free opportunity for us to come together as a community, to explore ALL the methods we can use to honor our creativity, in a supportive and caring environment.

Let’s learn to see differently, so what we’re capable of seeing can evolve.

It doesn’t have to take years. It can happen in a moment. In a flash of inspiration. In an epiphany.

Having said that, it can also be daunting.

Even with a Growth Mindset.

Even with an open willingness to try.

Because it requires us to sit with ourselves.

To start, we will build a private journaling practice.

The goal is to do this, even imperfectly.

To spew whatever words are forming the thoughts in our minds each and every day.

Like daily brain-dumps.

Sometimes it’ll be uncomfortable. Confronting, even.

Other times, it’ll feel miraculous.

The choice is ours: It can break our spirit. Or break our soul wide open.

The only way we get to find out, is to do the damn work.

This Community’s Built for that.

For support.

For accountability.

For us to cheer each other on, so we keep doing The Work, even…

  • When life happens and gets in our way.

  • When doubt rears its ugly head and gets in our way.

  • When depression, anxiety, and, yes, boredom get in our way.

  • When WE get in our own damned way!

These are the times when we must come together as a community to support each other in this most hallowed of practices:

To learn how to see ourselves clearly.

This will develop our creative skills — whether that’s writing, music, art, sculpting, building by hand, or even coding like a computer science engineer — all types of Creativity are welcome and will be celebrated here.

No matter the creative goal we choose to accomplish individually, we can all use this practice to go inward.

To give ourselves time for true reflection. To journal with ourselves. In private. So that we can learn to listen, to hear what our Creative Spirit actually has to say.

Then, when we are ready, we can come to the Chat to share our triumphs, tribulations, and hurdles with each other, in a supportive and welcoming environment.

Just keep in mind, this will NOT be some uber-serious, stuffy exercise.

Yes, there will be deep conversations.

But, I’m also a firm believer in using fun & humor to build sustainable habits, so I propose that we focus on:

  • Having fun together;

  • Sharing our triumphs;

  • Venting from time to time — we’re human after all! — and,

  • Taking a lighthearted approach to journaling & going on Artist Dates!

With no pressure to perform or pretend to be farther along when we’re not.

  • That means sharing drafts, if we’re comfortable.

  • Sharing unfinished, imperfect work.

  • Whatever we feel we need to share, we can share, to be supported by other Creatives who “get it.”

And, when it’s finally finished, we can share our final Posts, Notes, Music, Art, whatever we’re proud of, so that we can Like, Comment, and/or Restack each others’ work.

This is how we can come together, to grow through our own individual efforts, and feel the support of a kind & supportive Creative Community, too.

If that sounds good to you, then please join us & say hello!

Because No Creative should struggle alone!

It’s just not necessary in this day and age. It’s needless suffering.

And I know how pointless it is, because I’ve suffered in silence for far too long, pretending to be happy when I was really fracturing my Self.

Really. Read my Bio. It’s my manifesto. It screams, “I’m DONE with that!”

I want YOU to be done with suffering solo, too!

Keeping our struggles to ourselves is a huge reason why there’s an epidemic of loneliness, depression, and anxiety in our society — despite our being the most technologically-connected humans in history.

It’s why we’re so addicted to our phones and apps and TV. We’re just numbing ourselves.

Because it’s too fucking sad to know that, deep down, we’re killing our dreams.

Nah! Not me.

I’m determined to try whatever methods I can to grow the Creative Garden of my dreams.

I want YOU to garden alongside me.

So come join us!

We got this!

This is the Creative CHAT for you.

The Creative Gardener in me honors & respects the Creative Gardener in each of you,

Marisa

🦸🏻‍♀️ OLD BIO: The Go-Get-’Em Coach

Hello & Wecome to The VICTUS Mindset & Meditation: Synergy of Science & Self Newsletter!

Are you passionate about self-improvement?

Are you living life at your fullest, greatest potential?

Do you want more joy in your life?

What do you do when who you are is NOT who you are meant to be?

If you find yourself asking these questions, then the VICTUS Method is the solution. Because it’s not about being perfect or having the answers all of the time. It’s about adopting a holistic Growth Mindset that gives us permission and freedom to experiment, to reprogram our brains to adopt new, healthier ways of being, until we can THINK-DO-and-BE our way to becoming precisely who we choose to be!

Together, we can explore all the ways that we can 10x our life — mind, body, & soul.

We’ll learn the scientific, physiological, and psychological reasons why we are the way that we are, and combine that understanding with simple, active practices that will:

• Enliven our emotions & creativity;

• Enhance our efficiency & productivity;

Create systems and habits to guarantee our success;

• Foster a greater depth of Self;

• Build the Secure Attachment that we need to develop a Growth Mindset; and,

• Reprogram our minds to pivot from the Sympathetic Nervous System to the Parasympathetic Nervous System when we need it to, more often than not.

I’ve planned so many exciting & fun things to share with you, and I can’t wait for you to get all the goodies I’ve prepared!

It’s my goal to serve something greater than myself, and there’s nothing greater than helping others to end suffering in their Inner World.

Because I know exactly what it’s like to suffer in silence, feeling disconnected from who I truly am. I wish I’d had someone back in the day to help me. But, I didn’t give up.

I have a sensitive soul, but I’ve always been a fighter. And I love to create systems  — I’ve won awards for the ones I’ve created in my legal work  — and, believe me, I’m even more passionate about this!

So, join me & our like-minded community!

[SING-ALONG STORYTIME VIDEO] 📺 Let’s Heal Our Inner Child 👧🏻♥️👦🏻

CLICK the image to WATCH THE VIDEO!

SING-ALONG STORYTIME: Let’s Heal Our Inner Child

Let’s gather together & listen to the birds during this Sing-along.

In today’s VIDEO, we explore:

  • 🎉 #2 in my “SING-ALONG STORYTIME” Series!

  • ❤️ How ALL of us have an Inner Child that deserves our love & attention.

  • 🎵 How singing with friends can help us to soothe & heal our Inner Child.

  • 🙏 How we can join together as a community to heal.

When we come together to heal what’s hurt us, our Inner Child is given the recognition & validation that s/he deserves.

And when we realize we are not alone in our suffering, we can allow our hearts & minds to feel a wonderful healing sense of community. Because everyone suffers. That’s the nature of life. But, we can build each other up. We can support each other. That’s how we can become more resilient, no matter what comes our way in life.

Now, take a Mindful Minute to reflect on your life:

  • Does this particular song and/or story resonate with you?

  • Does singing this song with me allow your Inner Child to feel seen, understood, honored, and validated?

  • What’s YOUR story? What happened to you? I’d love to hear your story. Please share in the comments.

The Inner Child in me honors & respects the Inner Child in each of you,

Marisa

In addition, if you love to learn about the science of self-improvement as much as I do, I’ve got so many amazing resources for you to grow & learn with me, as I’m growing & learning, too!

Together, we’ll explore all the ways that we can 10x our lifemind, body, & soul.

We’ll learn the scientific, physiological, and psychological reasons why we are the way that we are. And…

We’ll combine that understanding with simple, active practices that will supercharge our self-improvement & give us unstoppable self-belief!

I hope you’ll join me, so we can go on this Journey together! I can’t wait to see how much we can learn, grow, and gain!
