The 2025 Vision/ Hype Board Party was a magical success! I think having these kinds of gatherings encourage us to inspire each other while building community. Every table be it a table full of friends, partners or complete strangers was peppered with lively conversations and laughter. The finished products were worthy of framing. While collecting images and words from magazines and some we brought ourselves we posed the following prompts and questions.
Personal Growth & Wellness:
What areas of your life do you want to grow in (e.g., mental, physical, or emotional health)?
What activities or habits make you feel your best?
How do you see yourself practicing self-care in the next year?
Career & Ambition:
What career goals or professional achievements are you aiming for?
How do you envision your work-life balance?
What steps can you take toward career advancement, fulfillment or retirement?
Relationships & Connection:
What type of relationships do you want to cultivate or strengthen (family, friends, romantic)?
How do you envision yourself spending time with loved ones?
What kind of support system do you desire?
Travel & Adventure:
Where do you want to travel in the next year?
What new experiences do you want to have?
How do you envision exploring new environments or cultures?
Financial Goals:
What are your financial goals for the upcoming year (savings, investments, budgeting)?
How do you want to feel about money and financial security?
What lifestyle changes will support those financial dreams?
Dream Home & Environment:
What does your ideal living space look like?
How do you want your surroundings to feel (calming, energizing, creative)?
What material items or design ideas will enhance your daily life?
Hobbies & Creativity:
What hobbies do you want to invest more time in?
How can you make more time for joy, play, or creative expression?
What new skills do you want to learn?
Mindset & Affirmations:
What affirmations will empower and encourage you to stay focused on your vision?
What words or phrases resonate with your goals and dreams?
We gave ourselves permission to cherry pick which of these prompts we wanted to focus on and those of us who just needed the reminder of how amazing we are did the same. Even if you didn’t join us feel free to use these ideas to create your own. All you need is posterboard (the size of your choosing), magazines (cutting out words, phrases and images you want to manifest), markers or colored pencils (to personalize how you like) and visualize what you want to see in your year. Then use these visionary vibes to remind yourself of your goals, dreams and how fantastic you are!
Check back soon, as I intend to offer a monthly art drop in at the ArtsXchange in the Riley Memorial Library.
See you next time!
