Discover the gifts of drawing out your
thoughts, feelings, and ideas with —
A new gift is revealed each day Dec. 25 thru Jan. 5.
What is Vizmas?
In the Northern latitudes, nights are long and chilly, inviting us to get cozy and reflect on the year we're wrapping, and the year unfurling next.
Brandy Agerbeck has always loved this time to make drawings to make sense of her experiences and envision what's next.
In that spirit, she's gathering old favorite visual thinking tools and creating a few new ones to help to you tie a beautiful bow on what may not have been the most beautiful year, and to enter 2025 with vibrant clarity.
While she just made up 'Vizmas' as an excuse to share and teach her favorite tools, Brandy is tickled to discover that the Latvian women's name Vizma comes from the word vizēt, meaning 'to glimmer.'
Celebrate 12 days of Vizmas and make your mind sparkle.

Day 5 | The Gift of Embracing Yourself as a Visual Thinker
If you're new to visual thinking, you may be wondering, "Am I a visual thinker?"
The implied next question is "or not."
Visual thinking is not a binary thing.
Sure, if you have a strong visual memory, pattern recognition, or spatial reasoning, you likely already see yourself as a visual thinker.
But visual thinking is a learnable skill set.
And the better question to ask is, "How can visual thinking improve my life?"
Brandy answers with five big, broad, beautiful areas of your life to embrace as a visual thinker.
Day 6 | The Gift of Making Motivation Tangible

She shares how in a sneak peek video from her Motivation Makers course, giving you one of trackers to use today!
Day 7 | The Gift of Lifelong Learning The Gift of Seeing Everything at Once
A spontaneous drawing on New Year's Eve changed today's gift.
Instead of looking at a 2024 resolution as a failure, I got a far better approach to succeeding with it in 2025.
Thanks to getting everything I needed onto ONE sheet of paper.
