The Vision Book: A New Year Workshop with Olivia Carr
Start the year with a vision that feels like yours.

- 1:00–4:00pm AEDT / Melbourne time
- Format

- Live only. No replay.
Three hours on New Year's Day to step out of the noise, listen to what you actually want and create a vision for the year ahead.
Not another list of resolutions.
Not a Pinterest-perfect vision board.
And not three hours of being told to manifest harder.
I've made vision boards for years, and I've watched so much of what I put on them become real in ways that have genuinely surprised me.
I don't believe the board does the work for you.
I do believe that getting clear about what you want changes what you notice, what you choose, what you say yes to, and what you're finally willing to move toward.
On January 1, we'll spend three hours together creating your Vision Book for 2027: not just what you want to have, but how you want your life to feel, what matters now, what you're ready to leave behind and what you want to consciously move towards.
You'll leave with a clearer vision for your year, intentions and decisions you can return to, and a physical Vision Book that belongs to you.

Sometimes creating a vision brings something into focus that you want to explore more privately. If that happens, Olivia also offers 90-minute Private Sessions.
Explore Private SessionsThere is something powerful about beginning on January 1.
Not because everything has to change when the calendar does.
But because the first day of a new year gives us a rare moment to stop.
Before the year fills with obligations, deadlines, noise and everyone else's priorities, we get to ask:
- What do I actually want this year to hold?
- What do I want more of?
- What am I ready to stop carrying?
- What deserves my time, energy and attention now?
- And what might become possible if I let myself imagine beyond what already exists?
This is three hours set aside for those questions.
Three hours to listen, imagine and create.
The live workshop will include:
- Guided reflection.
- Olivia's personal approach to vision boards and visioning.
- Identifying what you want more and less of in 2027.
- Considering work, relationships, home, money, health, adventure, creativity, ambition, desire and how life feels.
- Individual Vision Book creation time.
- Optional small breakout conversations and sharing.
- Integration into a small number of intentions and decisions for the year ahead.
There will be structure, but there will also be room.
You don't need to arrive knowing exactly what you want. Part of the work is giving yourself enough quiet to notice.
Connection is encouraged, particularly during any small-group conversations, but you should be able to manage your camera according to what feels workable in the moment.
Not just pictures on a page.
Your Vision Book becomes something you can return to throughout the year. You'll leave with:
- A clearer sense of what you want 2027 to feel like.
- A visual expression of the life, experiences and priorities you want to move towards.
- A small number of intentions and decisions that feel like yours.
- A physical Vision Book to keep somewhere you will actually see it.
- And, hopefully, permission to want what you want without first needing to justify it.
What you'll need.
Once you book, you'll receive a preparation guide with everything you need to gather before January 1.
Nothing needs to be expensive or perfect. You'll need things such as:
- A blank book, journal or scrapbook.
- Scissors.
- Glue.
- Magazines.
- Printed images, words or photographs.
- Pens / markers.
- Anything personal you already know you may want to include.
You'll also receive some reflection prompts before the workshop so you can begin noticing what is pulling at you before we meet.
You don't need to be reinventing your entire life.
- Come if you feel excited about the year ahead.
- Come if you're standing at a crossroads.
- Come if you've had a difficult year.
- Come if life is good but you know you want something different.
- Come if you have a clear vision.
- Come if you have absolutely no idea what you want yet.
You do not need to be in midlife. You simply need to be willing to give yourself three hours to ask what you want your next year to hold.
Questions
Do I need to have made a vision board before?
No. Olivia will guide participants through the process.
Is this about manifestation?
I believe deeply in the power of vision.
I've watched things from my own vision boards become part of my real life again and again.
But this workshop isn't about sitting back and waiting for the universe to deliver a picture you glued onto a page.
For me, a vision creates clarity.
Clarity changes what we notice, what we choose, the opportunities we recognise and what we're willing to move towards.
That is the spirit in which we'll work.
Do I need to have my materials ready before the day?
Yes.
Participants receive a preparation guide after booking so they have plenty of time to gather what they need.
Will there be a replay?
No.
The Vision Book is designed as a live, participatory experience.
What if I can't attend after booking?
Tickets are non-refundable.
The booking may be transferred to another person or the ticket value may be applied to another Olivia Carr event within 12 months, subject to availability.
Do I have to have my camera on?
Connection is encouraged, particularly during any small-group conversations, but participants should be able to manage their camera according to what feels workable in the moment.
