What Happens When You Give Yourself 10 Minutes of Creativity a Week

Hi everyone,

My name’s Sarah and I’m from Dublin, Ireland. I’m a busy mum of five beautiful children and run a performing arts school called Drama House.

I’m lucky to spend my days creating with young people — watching how freely they play, how easily they take creative risks, how confident they are. But as they grow into teenagers, that spark often starts to fade… and for most adults, it disappears completely.

Lately I’ve been talking with friends and colleagues — the ones who used to love to sing, write, paint, dance… the ones who still get goosebumps when they hear incredible music or see a piece of art that moves them. Somewhere along the way, we all just stopped engaging with that side of ourselves.

Life got louder. Work, kids, responsibilities — all of it crept in until creativity started to feel like a luxury. Even in my adult classes, people struggle to commit to one hour a week. I get it — it’s always the first thing to go.

But here’s what I’ve learned:

✨ You don’t lose your creativity — you just bury it under all the noise.

And when you start to bring it back, even for ten minutes a week, everything else starts to shift.

You think differently at work.

You show up more patiently and playfully with your family.

You start to see possibilities again — instead of problems.

A spark of creativity in one area spills into all areas of your life.

So, I’m starting something new — The Creative Reset.

It’s a space for people who are ready to remember who they were before they got too busy.

No pressure. No perfection. Just a gentle reset for your confidence, your voice, and your spark.

Each week, we’ll explore simple, practical ways to reconnect with yourself through creativity — journaling, storytelling, music, art, movement, and small acts of play and courage.

You don’t have to call yourself an artist (I certainly don’t). You just have to be curious enough to show up.

If that sounds like something your soul’s been craving, come and join us.

Let’s make this the season you come home to yourself again — and bring a little magic back into every corner of your life.

With gratitude,

Sarah ❤️
