Give the Gift of Entrepreneurship: Celebrating Dreams & My Company’s 10 Year Anniversary
Often what you loved to do and dreamed of as a child is a clue and purpose-pointer to what you’re called to do today…
One of my dreams since I was a little girl was to be an entrepreneur and share my art and inspiration with the world. I recently found some of my first business plans that I created with Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE) at NFTE South Florida and realized I’ve been an entrepreneur for over 20 years since I was in elementary school and running my current business Envibrance Dream Studios that I started as a teen for 10!I want to pay it forward and share mentorship and wisdom by giving the gift of entrepreneurship to other young dreamers (or the kid in you, remember when you dreamed and was creative without limits?) with this awesome book “The Parents’ Guide to Raising CEO Kids” by Dr. Jerry Cook and Sarah L. Cook. My story is featured here along with other inspiring entrepreneurs of all ages with great advice on how to start a business and cultivate entrepreneurship no matter where you are in life. You can get this book for yourself or a friend here. Another inspiring gift you can give is an inspirational T-shirt/print of your choice from my line Envibrance Dream Apparel I will be doing periodic giveaways on my Facebook page here so join the community to join the party!
Don’t delay on your dreams because you never know who is waiting to hear the hope of your story and to experience the beauty you were made to bring to this world! #LiveYourDreams #TheWorldAwaits #BeaKid #PermissiontoPlay
May Your Dreams Be Merry and Bright!
Christmas reminds me that anything is possible and that Love is the greatest and most powerful gift of all…
My friend Olaf and I want to remind you to live boldly – be uniquely who you’re created to be and shine the dreams in your heart into the world purposefully – YOU are made to be extraordinary and your purpose matters more than you can imagine!
Olaf and I wish you a Merry Christmas – may your dreams be sweet, merry and bright tonight and onward into the New Year! Dare Dreamer and know that your dreams are unique and beautiful, your purpose is extraordinary and wonder-full, anything is possible and you are loved more than you know!
Love, Julene and Olaf 😉
Here are some of my Christmas song faves from some amazing artists for you to enjoy this Christmas season (and if you’re like me many days afterwards:)
What Are You Afraid Of? Be Bold When Pursuing Your Purpose and Dreams
What are you afraid of that’s keeping you from living your purpose and dreams?
Just a few years ago if you put me (more like dragged me) onto a stage and ask me to speak I’d be shaking in my boots – literally!
I hated the spotlight. The thought of talking to people, even in one-on-one conversation, petrified me. Years of being chained by anxiety since childhood imprisoned me.
It was taking small brave steps that challenged me – and also realizing that the people I’m meant to impact are more important than my fears – that encouraged me to be bold.
That teen girl who was considering suicide is more important than the fear that I will say the wrong thing. Those women who are afraid of following their dreams matter more than me being cozy in my comfort zone.
Your voice matters and your purpose is vital to others who are waiting to experience what you are gifted to bring. Every person has purpose no matter what they do but everyday people leave this earth with their vision still inside, and we all miss out on the unique beauty beating in their hearts.
What you fear often is an indicator to what you should do, so instead of avoiding it, look closely at where you are being called to.
After years of being paralyzed by fear I now find myself feeling at home on all kinds of stages speaking to hundreds of people and doing creative presentations that I never thought possible!
Fear is too small a thing to keep you from who you are meant to be, where you are led to impact with your light, who you are called to free. So DARE Dreamer and live boldly because you were made for this! #AriseandShine #LiveonPurpose – Julene
P.S. You can get a Live Boldly Everyone Has Purpose T-shirt or hoodie from my shop to remind yourself and others of this truth! http://envibrance.com/shop
Inspire Little Dreamers and the Kid in You
Want to inspire the little Dreamers in your life to Dream BIG and nurture the dreams of the younger you? If you do, stay tuned to Dreamfleur for a special project and motivation series I’m launching to inspire and nourish your sweet dreams…
One of my dreams is to encourage young people to be entrepreneurs and Dreamers through my project DreamerENT.com, motivating them to start tapping into their purpose (focusing on who they are meant to be) right where they are. I also have a passion for inspiring YOU to reconnect with yourself when you were a kid – remember when you dared to dream freely? It’s time to reclaim that boundless childlike wonder and creativity and revive those sleeping dreams!
I’ve been a Dreamer and entrepreneur ever since I was a little girl sharing my artwork with friends and family (that’s me in the framed picture above). I recently realized that I started my current business Envibrance Dream Studios 10 years ago when I was a teen through the support of a wonderful organization that I am very grateful for, Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE). Wow, time has flown by!
To celebrate the 10th Anniversary of Envibrance, over 20 years as an entrepreneur and my birthday this month I’ll be launching some new sweet dreams both for young Dreamers you know and the young Dreamer in you!
Stay tuned here and keep daring to live those dreams in your heart – they’ll make the world a sweeter place! While you’re at it, today eat a cupcake or two (preferably the healthy and organic kind;), they’ll make your day a bit sweeter too. Sweet Dreams, Dreamer – Julene @dreamfleur
P.S. You can get this Sweet Dreams T-Shirt for any-sized Dreamer at my shop: http://envibrance.com/shop
A Dreamer’s Diary: Choose Joy, Always! Sharing My Story of Overcoming Depression
One of the greatest obstacles to following my dreams has been overcoming depression and the feeling of inadequacy. Over the years and through many struggles I’ve learned that joy is a choice and it is strength in the darkest of times…
I shared a glimpse of my story a few weeks back on Facebook and was surprised by the outpouring of support, people who said they were encouraged and even someone who messaged me to tell me that they were going through a down time in their life and I was able to give them an uplifting word.
Often our past can feel like something to be ashamed of but in reality your story and whatever you have overcome is vital to share to help other people get through – dare to be vulnerable, you have the hope someone else needs. This is my story…
