What a fantastic morning we had last Friday, July 26th at the breathtaking Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design! From the moment we stepped onto the campus of RMCAD, we were in for a treat, diving into the theme of TRUST with the incredible Michelle Gruening—who, by the way, is also one of our fabulous CreativeMornings volunteers!

Before we got started, we had some fun goings on!

Roundtrip Goods Pop-Up: Leah Rich graced us with her slow fashion magic! During our coffee and connecting time, Leah’s Roundtrip Goods had us all swooning over sustainable style.

Cornhole on the Lawn: Who knew cornhole could be so thrilling? We had a blast tossing bean bags as we counted down to the Colorado Cornhole Classic. Feeling competitive? Sign up for a team here and join the fun!

Michelle Gruening’s Trust Talk was nothing short of transformative. She took us on a captivating journey through her and her husband’s adventure, illustrating how their experience, while not necessarily life-changing, was profoundly life-affirming. Michelle’s insights on trust were deeply motivating, as she shared her personal mantra that guided her through challenges and triumphs. Her empowering affirmations included: “I am strong. I am capable. I am prepared. I am relentless. I will summit.” By the end of her presentation, we felt a surge of empowerment, ready to embrace and trust the process, ourselves, and each other with renewed vigor and confidence.

Whether we’re tackling a literal mountain or our own figurative challenges, we can choose to trust the process. Thank you, Michelle, for sharing your journey and inspiring us with your wisdom!
