Living The Daisy Life: A Framework for Purposeful, Creative Growth
Have you ever felt like life was just happening to you, instead of something you were actively shaping? Like you were checking off all the boxes but still felt like something deeper was missing? I’ve been there too. That feeling is exactly what led me to create The Daisy Life.
The Daisy Life isn’t just about crafting pretty things (though that’s part of the fun!). It’s about crafting your story—intentionally, creatively, and with purpose. It’s about learning to embrace life’s messy, beautiful moments and using creativity as a tool to grow, heal, and connect.
Just like a daisy starts as a seed, needing care and nurturing to bloom, so do we. Our growth doesn’t come without storms or still seasons. But no matter what, we have the ability to rise, to bloom, and to bring beauty to the world.
To help guide that growth, I created a simple framework based on the word DAISY. Each letter represents a foundational step in living intentionally, with creativity and grace. Let me walk you through it.
🌼 The DAISY Life Framework
D – Discover Your Why
Uncover what truly matters to you—your core values, passions, and purpose. It’s the foundation of everything else. When you know your “why,” you stop living on autopilot and start living intentionally. It becomes your anchor when life feels chaotic.
A – Align with Intention
Make intentional choices that reflect your values and support your purpose. Whether it’s how you spend your time, who you surround yourself with, or which projects you say yes to—keep your life aligned with your “why.”
I – Inspire Creativity
Creativity isn’t just about making art—it’s about how you approach life. It’s in problem-solving, connecting with others, and finding joy in the everyday. Let your creativity shine, however that looks for you.
S – Strengthen Your Growth
Personal and spiritual growth is ongoing. Embrace challenges, seek opportunities to learn, and surround yourself with people and experiences that help you stretch. Growth may feel uncomfortable, but it’s always worth it.
Y – Yield to Grace
Life isn’t perfect, and neither are we. Give yourself room to rest, to forgive, and to surrender the need for control. Trust that grace will fill the gaps and carry you through the messy middle.
Your Invitation to Live The Daisy Life
The Daisy Life is about crafting your story with intention. It’s about finding joy in the process, embracing who God created you to be, and using creativity as a tool to live with more peace and purpose.
