The Creative Cooldown

Get creative and stress less!

Are you a stressed-out mom who longs for a little “me-time” but can never seem to find it? Do you love the idea of creative self-care but don’t know how to fit it into your busy schedule? I hear you, and I want to help!

Get ready to ignite your creativity with my 30-Day Creative Cooldown Challenge. Each day, you’ll receive a fun prompt to inspire just 5 minutes of creative expression.

Does this sound familiar?

  • You’re juggling schedules, work, kids, and household chores—and still feel like you’re not doing enough.
  • The mental load of planning, organizing, and managing everyone’s needs never seems to stop.
  • You finally carve out a moment for yourself, but the mom guilt kicks in.
  • Those intrusive thoughts—Am I a good enough mom? Am I doing enough?—won’t leave you alone.

If any of this sounds like you, you’re not alone.

You Deserve a Break—Without the Guilt

Hi, I’m Line, and here at The Creative Cooldown, we believe that taking time for yourself isn’t selfish—it’s essential.

Creative self-care is one of the best ways to reduce stress and reconnect with yourself, especially for moms who are constantly giving to others.

That’s why I’m passionate about helping moms tap into their creativity as a way to relieve stress and practice self-care. Having personally experienced burnout as a mom, I know how powerful simple drawing exercises can be for finding calm and a way to recharge.

I offer easy, approachable art techniques to help moms integrate creativity into their daily routine for better mental well-being.

And here’s the best part:

  • No special skills or talent required. You don’t have to be an artist to benefit from creative self-care.
  • Even just 5 minutes a day of doodling, journaling, or simple creative exercises can make a huge difference in your mood and energy levels.
  • It’s about letting go of perfectionism and creating space for yourself to breathe, recharge, and reconnect.
