About this event
Start the new year with a blank canvas!
Together we’ll gently guide you in reflecting on the past year while sparking your imagination for the year ahead. Using creative prompts, engaging worksheets, and time to connect with other passionate creatives, you’ll leave this session with a clear vision board for the year ahead to give you clarity, purpose and direction. You can then use it to create a practical plan going forward whilst staying anchored to your vision. You’ll discover how to harness the power of creative reuse, like turning old magazines into inspiration.
The session will start with a short presentation about creating a vision board. There will be introduction exercises and prompts to help you settle into the space.
You will then spend some time on your own creating your vision board (see list of resources needed below)
We will come back into smaller groups so you can process your work with another peer which is a hugely enriching experience and helps you make sense of your work.
We will end together by thinking about what your next steps are and how you are going to make that happen.
This is an experiential session so please bring with you resources to make your own vision board:
- large piece of paper
- magazines to cut, scissors and glue
- Any other art materials you might like to use
- Your workbook you can download from www.nicolahughes.co.uk/cvd2025

I am a Creative Counsellor, Outdoor Therapist, Supervisor and Trainer. I run my own Private Practice in The Caravan Clinic in Leeds and Outdoors in the surrounding area.
As a neurodivergent person and parent I have learnt how important it is to have space. We can easily live such packed out lives and this soon leads to burn out. I love facilitating safe creative spaces for fellow professionals as I know how much it’s needed.
In my safe space you can find me at my art station working on my next heart process, walking my toy poodle Mo or in a café having coffee with a friend.
