Biography

Tap Into Your Creative Juju

Juju – magic, mystery, inspiration, spontaneity, cosmic boons, serendipity...

You know that special, tingly feeling you get when you create something new or when something magical and unexpected happens? That’s juju. It’s the creative spark that flows through us when we’re alert to it’s magic. People who are tapped into their unique juju express a vitality and engagement with life that’s impossible to miss.

My job is to help you tap your creative juju. This blog is one way to tap in.

When you’re swinging out there to create something new, you need inspiration to believe that your wildly imaginative idea will survive a real-world test. Whether your creative adventure takes you around the globe or around your studio, JourneyJuju.com will inspire you to have the courage to express your own creative juju.

Who is Cynthia Morris?

I’m an explorer of the creative process, in art, life and at work. As a Certified Coach, I’ve been helping writers, artists and business people bring their brilliant ideas to fruition since 1999. As an artist I write, draw, paint, collage, cook, dance, sing…however the juju moves me, I follow.

I have tapped into my own juju channel, and this has enabled me to bring my ideas into form. I’ve developed and sustained my business, Original Impulse, written books, performed onstage, and facilitated groups and individuals through the creative journey in my workshops and coaching.

Take a peek into my creative process on the Journey Juju blog. Here I share my story of how in May, 2008, I shed my comfortable life in Boulder, Colorado and headed to Europe. For a year I lived as a creative nomad, operating my business from my iBook and tracking more creative juju.

The whole story is here: falling into and out of love with a hot Latin lover, savoring the flavors of Europe’s tables, expanding my capacity and reaching far out of my comfort zone. Live it all vicariously through the Journey Juju blog.

I returned to Colorado in April, 2009, and am gathering all the inspiration I got in Europe to write books and develop creative excursions for the curious for 2010.
