Muppets, Manifestos & Momentum
Soft Hustle. Big Energy. Bold Moves.
Hey beautiful humans,
I’ve been thinking a lot about how we show up when no one’s watching—and when everyone’s watching. Somewhere between chasing big dreams and whispering affirmations to ourselves, there’s a space where we just... are.
So if you're in the middle of magic—or a mild meltdown—I see you.
This space is your gentle spark to reset, realign, and remember your why.
Let’s breathe in the brilliance and tap into April’s creative frequency.
Manifesto Moment: Reclaim Your “Why”
And why I built one to keep my fire lit
There are moments—especially as creatives, founders, and big-feeling humans—when everything feels like too much. The to-do lists stack up, the vision gets foggy, and burnout starts whispering, “Maybe you should just quit.”
I know that voice well.
Which is why I created a personal Creative Manifesto Framework—a poetic, powerful reminder of who I am, what I stand for, and why I show up.
It’s not just a cute quote or a brand statement.
It’s an anchor. A compass. A breath of clarity on the days when I feel overwhelmed, uninspired, or like I’ve lost my way.
This manifesto holds my values.
It names the kind of impact I want to make.
It reminds me that rest is strategic, that creativity is sacred, and that I am allowed to take up space with softness, strength, and joy.
“I don’t just make content—I create containers
where clarity meets creativity,
where breath meets breakthrough.”
— from Brée’s Creative Purpose Manifesto
Why You Need One Too
A manifesto isn’t about perfection—it’s about presence.
It gives your creativity a why, a heartbeat, and a home.
When you have your own Creative Manifesto, you:
Stay rooted in your truth, even when trends shift
Make aligned decisions faster
Create more intentionally (and less reactively)
Feel motivated even when you're mentally exhausted
Reconnect with your purpose during difficult seasons
Ready to Write Yours?
I’ve created a free, fill-in-the-blank Creative Manifesto Guide + Journaling Prompts to help you craft your own.
It’s short. It’s soulful. And it’s designed to pull your clarity back from the chaos.
Then post your favorite line from your manifesto and tag me @BaronessBree —I’d love to witness your brilliance.

LinkedIn But Make It Muppet
How a Silly Prompt Sparked Serious Joy
This week has been… a lot.
Professionally, mentally, politically — it’s been one of those weeks.
The kind where every headline feels heavier than the last, the inbox never seems to quit, and your brain needs a nap before noon. I’ve been moving through it like many of you: juggling responsibilities, staying informed, staying grounded — and admittedly, tired.
But then something completely unexpected happened.
Something joyful.
Something so utterly Muppet-y that I laughed out loud and got a little misty at the same time.
I Became a Muppet. Yes. A Full-On ChatGPT Muppet.
And not just any Muppet.
Meet Breezy Buttons — my fuzzy, adorable, soft-hearted alter ego.
She was born through a creative AI prompt in ChatGPT that turned my likeness into a full-fledged puppet with textured hair, cat-eye glasses, and enough serotonin to power a small wellness retreat.
As a lifelong Sesame Street girlie, seeing myself imagined in this way hit deep. It felt like a hug to my inner child — the version of me that used to watch PBS after school, sing along to Grover’s segments, and secretly hope to one day live on a street where everyone burst into song at the crosswalk.
Breezy Buttons showed up on my screen, looking like joy personified.
She reminded me what’s still possible when we let ourselves play.
Why This Muppet Prompt Took Geeks by Storm
What started as a little tech experiment has become a delightful corner of the internet.
People are generating Muppet versions of themselves — and their friends, coworkers, even pets. It’s become a digital love letter to creativity, community, and unapologetic silliness.
In a time when burnout is real, and the weight of the world is constant, this moment has reminded me that joy is resistance. That levity is necessary. That allowing ourselves to be a little ridiculous might be the most grounded thing we can do.
This wasn’t just a content trend — it was a creative exhale.
So Here’s to Breezy Buttons
She’s got layers — of fleece and emotional depth.
She’s the embodiment of “do the work, but don’t forget to play.”
She’s now officially my emotional support puppet.
And whether you're burned out, bummed out, or blissed out, I hope you find your Breezy.
Or better yet — prompt her into being.
