Welcome to our Interview with a Goddess!

Nicole Graham is co-creater of "Journal for the Modern Goddess", a beautifully illustrated hard cover journals designed with self-discovery and self-empowerment for all women in mind. The journal also comes with a Guided Meditation CD offering 3 beautiful guided meditations to guide every Goddess in her path of self-discovery.

Nicole is here with us today to reveal some of her inspirations and tools for success... here is what she had to say...

Question: Nicole, where did the desire to create the "Journal for the Modern Goddess" begin?

Nicole: My initial desire started with creating a cost effective journal that would inspire me to write in it.  Living in Hong Kong I found it difficult to find a nicely covered writing journal that wasn’t overpriced.  I then thought maybe I could create my own and sell them through my online store, www.moderngoddessgifts.com.  This is when I contacted you to talk about using your paintings displayed at www.nirvanavisions.org as covers of the journals.  From there we brainstormed and today we have published our first journal, Journal for the Modern Goddess.

Question: Who are you hoping to reach with this Journal and how will they benefit?

Nicole: Our journal is targeted towards women of all ages, who would like to develop themselves through journaling.  The journal allows women to experience a journey of self-discovery and empowerment through the self-guided sections and through the companion guided meditation CD.  The whole journal allows women to uncover the beautiful, unique and powerful Goddess that they really are.  The experience takes them on a magical journey to find their own personal power.

Question:  How have you benefited personally in bringing this Journal into the world?

Nicole: I’m so proud of our achievement.  One a personal note, this is just another proof for me that when I set my mind to something and I allow the Universe to support me, I can achieve great things.  It has given me the confidence to step out of my comfort zone and trust that if what I am doing is for the higher good that the Universe will conspire to help me move forward and grow.  It has given me faith that I can work with another person to bring such project together.

*Question: What is next on your creative agenda?

Nicole: Personally I’m off to Art Jamming on Saturday night.  I’ve gathered a bunch of girlfriends to go to a centre that provides all the painting material and canvases, and we can paint while drinking bubbles and jiving to great music.  On a more professional note, our Journal for the Pregnant Goddess, Journal for the Goddess Bride and Journal for the Mother Goddess are next on our journal agenda.  The Journal for the Pregnant Goddess is nearly complete and we’re not far off in passing it over to our graphic designer.  We hope to release this journal by mid this year.

Question:  How can lovers of the Journal stay in touch with what you will be offering next?

Nicole: If you want to keep in touch with our journaling antics, you can subscribe to our newsletter on our website, www.journalsforempowerment.com and you can also keep up to date with our Virtual Book Tour through our tour blog http://www.journalsforempowerment.com/virtual-book-tours/.

Question:  How can someone buy the journal?

Nicole: You can buy it directly from our website http://www.journalsforempowerment.com/our-journals/modern-goddess.htm and during the Virtual Book Tour, 10% of our sales from the site are going towards sponsoring a small business through kiva.org.  Alternatively, you can buy it from one of our retailer partners http://www.journalsforempowerment.com/retail-partners.htm.

I hope that you enjoyed this window into creativity and I look forward to your comments from every Goddess :-)

Love and light, Tara Spicer.
