Time to Dream BIG!

Imagine knowing what you really want in life... and how to get there.

 - What would happen if you took time out of your busy schedule to explore your passion, purpose and big ideas? 

- What if you give yourself permission to dream BIG?

Discover what happened when Jo did just that...

 

The Need for Clarity

Jo Spottiswood, founder of The Spark Labs, was feeling stuck and unclear about her business direction and ultimate purpose.

Like many professionals, she devoted her time, energy and focus to serving clients - helping them build and grow their brands by identifying needs and delivering creative solutions.  

Although Jo excels at responding to client briefs, she didn’t have a clear brief for her own business vision. She was juggling an abundance of ideas for building her brand and ambitious plans for growth... all swirling round in her head.

As a creative and intuitive business owner, Jo often felt overwhelmed by her stream of thoughts and wealth of ideas. She recognised she needed a fresh perspective and outside input to create a roadmap for her own vision.

 

Seeking Guidance

Having watched my TEDx Talk: The Clarity Quest, and discovered IdeasBook, Jo felt drawn to seek my guidance to help find a clear path. 

She decided to invest in Daydream & Doodle Day in July 2024.

"A single day transformed Jo’s perspective, clarified her ‘why’ and provided an impactful way to move forward." - Ann English

 

A Day of Transformation

Taking time away from her desk, computer and digital tools, Jo found Daydream & Doodle Day empowering.

She loved getting back to basics, using pen and paper, alongside creative materials, to reignite her imagination. 

The serene Chaophraya Thai Garden, an oasis of calm in the heart of Newcastle upon Tyne, provided the perfect setting for an immersive workshop, designed to focus on ideas, dream big and create a personal treasure map for her journey

"Imagine a day where you have permission to play, daydream, and doodle with childlike curiosity, where colouring in is positively encouraged!" - Ann English

 

The Catalyst for Creativity

Jo found the experiential structure of the day incredibly valuable.

From creating imaginary characters, drawing her Superpower Self, experiencing ‘Gong Time’ reset ritual, to busting myths around creativity and overcome negative-self talk - every part of the day was designed to nurture new possibilities.

Stepping away from her routine and immersing herself in a fun, supportive environment, Jo realised she wasn’t alone in facing roadblocks.

Connecting with like-minded business owners fulled her confidence.

The Clarity Quest IdeasBook and visual roadmap provided a framework to map her ideas and understand the steps needed to bring them to life. 

 

Finding Your Ultimate ‘Why’

One of Jo's most significant breakthroughs was discovering her ultimate ‘why’.

This concept, popularised by Simon Sinek’s TEDx Talk: Start with Why highlights the importance of understanding the deeper purpose behind what you think, say and do.

For Jo, uncovering her purpose was a pivotal moment, giving her renewed clarity, direction and motivation towards what she can become.

“I attended Daydream & Doodle Day to gain clarity on the direction of my business because I was feeling stuck. Afterwards, I felt much clearer and supported with the tools and roadmaps I need to bring my ideas to life. The whole day was useful from start to finish and beyond. It is structured perfectly, and I left knowing what areas I need to explore.” - Jo Spottiswood

 

Personal and Professional Growth

The impact of Daydream & Doodle Day extends far beyond the day itself.

The creative techniques and mindset strategies Jo experienced have continued to support her professionally and personally. 

 

Maintaining Momentum

The transformation doesn't stop at the end of Daydream & Doodle Day.

Armed with renewed focus, confidence, and VisualDoodling skills, Jo continues to develop her ideas and take action using her personalised IdeasBook.

Owning IdeasBook unlocks an invitation to join The Clarity Questers, a private group for ongoing support, inspiration and accountability.

 

Overcoming Roadblocks

IdeasBook has been instrumental in helping Jo maintain her momentum.

As she works through it's framework activities, Jo uncovers innovative ways to navigate mental blocks and stay focused on her objectives. 

By unblocking her mind, she has approached both personal and professional challenges with new confidence, creativity and curiosity.

 

The Power of Visual Thinking

Daydream & Doodle Day harnesses the power of visual thinking - enabling participants to organise their thoughts, visualise their plans, and build the confidence to turn dreams into reality. 

Jo’s journey, from feeling stuck to finding her ultimate ‘why’ is a shining example of what's possible! 

The empowering transformations experienced by all participants were celebrated during heartfelt reflections, and with a mocktail toast!

 “Jo’s story shows the impact dedicated time, space, and the right guidance can have on our ability to innovate and grow.” - Ann English
