Portrait of a young man singing with closed eyes isolated on a white background

Welcome to Week Five of the six part Wings & Whimsy Webinar Series! (That is a mouthful).  I’m so, so glad you’re here. 

 

Last week we talked about “Ignition.”  This week… we’re going to “Howl.”

 

First up, here is a slightly-less-than-eight minute video to introduce the topic, and to tell you about the time I learned to “dance my way through.”  In it is an invitation for you to think about your own life mantra:

**In that intro video, I reference two Kid Snippets videos, which you can watch here (they still make me laugh just as hard, four years later):

“Salesman”:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsRk0TXYXuA

“Math Class”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdxEAt91D7k

 

Once you’ve digested all that, in video two (just under five minutes), I dive into that very-present reality of Fear, and how fear can consume us.  Let’s dissect which fears we can say “Riddikulus!!” to right now:

And finally, in the short video three, I invite us all to HOWL:

Let me know your thoughts and reflections over on our Facebook Group, and I’ll see you next Monday for episode six.

 

With love,

Erika
