GATHER
<p>Gather is defined as coming together; assemble or accumulating. To bring together, draw together, or toward oneself.</p><p>Last year, around this time, I traveled to Cape Cod to retreat with the women from the mastermind group I shared about <a target="_blank" href="http://laurensauder.substack.com/conversations">two weeks ago</a>. It’s a bit weird for me to refer to them as a mastermind group because after gathering with them last year, I know we are so much more than that. And marking one year since that trip, I am thinking a lot about the importance of gathering and what it means in my process.</p><p><p>viewfinder is a listener-supported podcast.

It’s both showing up AND being seen as an artist.</p><p>* Gatherings don’t have to be in a group setting.

CONVERSATIONS
<p>A conversation is defined as a talk, especially an informal one, between two or more people, in which news and ideas are exchanged.</p><p>Conversations have been on my mind recently because they are truly a tool in helping me move through my process. And I’ve been thinking about it a lot as I reflect on my break from my email newsletter, podcast, and mentoring — because I truly believe my time away could have gone in such a different direction if it weren’t for conversations.</p><p><p>viewfinder is a listener-supported podcast.

RESISTANCE
<p>Resistance is the refusal to accept or comply with something; the attempt to prevent something by action or argument. An opposition.</p><p>Within the first couple of days of my <a target="_blank" href="https://laurensauder.substack.com/p/interlude">two-month break</a>, I immediately felt myself resisting wanting to make any art, which felt funny to me. I felt this creative energy inside me, I intentionally made the space for it, then nothing. Like I suddenly was disinterested. I noticed how I immediately wanted to fill my attention with busy work. I thought about updating the SEO on my website (drag) and refreshing my welcome email (boring). Thankfully, I have an incredible community to lean on, and they graciously told me to let it go. And make art. So that’s what I did—and I got to understand resistance a little bit better.</p><p><p>viewfinder is a listener-supported podcast. To receive new episodes and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.</p></p><p><strong>Reflections</strong></p><p>* Resistance can tell me a lot about who I am.</p><p>* Resistance is a common response to change.</p><p>* Resistance will always find a good excuse.
