Hello friends and family!

I can't believe that I managed to fit this into this week. To give you content it's 12:27 am on a Wednesday morning. I have to pack for a 2-day work trip, I had a bunch of things to do before I left and today has been a mess. I almost considered skipping this week or sending this on Sunday.  Then I remembered that I have amazing music for you and that hyped me up and got me into this space...so here I am past midnight writing this for you. 

Let's go! Hello and welcome

to the new subscribers. Thank you for joining us on this weekly adventure for a

Dose of Inspiration

and tips to 

Create A Life You Love and Go Live It

. 

The theme of this week is "problems" 

I remember in 2020 a colleague of mine did a talk at work on upstream and downstream solutions and this stuck. 

Here is a definition: 

"An upstream solution creatively addresses a problem at its source. While some situations call for sending help downstream to address an immediate problem, generally “downstream” solutions do not present a permanent or even semi-permanent fix."

Recently I have been trying to solve all problems like this. Whatever came up I would take some time, analyze why it happened and find a sustainable solution at the root of it. 

My first thought is how can I never have this problem again?

 Life is short and I don't want to have to deal with the same problems over and over again.

(To be honest, I could use that time to dance salsa)

It has created some interesting situations but most often it has solved the problem completely. 

  Your task this week: 

• Write down 3 big problems that you are currently facing. 

• Map it down and find the root cause of the problem. 

• Now see if you can fix it at that point. 

Remember each week, we are just moving one tiny step forward to creating a life you love.

Artists Who Inspire 

Artist: Àsìkò

I love when friends share artists with me. This beauty came from Irina. I was stunned by his work. He is a Nigerian artist and he infused his work with history, culture and social context. 

If I had an art bucket list, seeing his work in person would be moved to the top. 

Do yourself a favour and click his website link to read the backstory of his work. It's magic! 💫

Song of the week 

On the topic of magic 💫, Kudoshi finally released some new tracks and this is an experience. A full-body experience. So far only 4 songs are released but they are pure magic! What a journey! I got a notification on Sunday that his EP (Protect Your Chemistry) was out, so I headed over to Soundcloud (which I only use for these moments) and was swept away.All four songs are incredibly different in vibe but will transport you into a very unique space. I have my favourite which is Oxytocin but I thought I would share the most powerful one, ANANDAMIDE today. Headphones on, sit back, and enjoy this ride!

Before I forget - a big thank you to @0melapics for the Tribal design that inspired this branding.
