April Caricature Challenge
This month, we’re inviting you to introduce yourself to the 2026 cohort in a creative and meaningful way. Your challenge: create a book cover that represents you - not just how you look, but who you are. This can be hand-drawn or AI-generated; both are welcome!
What to include:
📚 A book cover featuring you (caricature or creative interpretation)
✍️ A short summary of your book, this can be written as a biography or a story
💭 Your story should share at least a little truth about you - your journey, experiences, values, or what has shaped you
Post your book cover and summary in our online community within Kajabi under the “April Challenge” section. Please see below for a link.

This is a chance to be seen, to share a piece of your story, and to learn more about one another in a creative way. We’re excited to get to know you through your stories 💫 A few examples are below...

🌿 Journal Prompt: “What has been weighing on me lately, and where do I feel it in my body?”
What specific situations or thoughts are triggering this stress? How have I been responding (emotionally or physically)? What do I actually need right now? Support, rest, clarity, boundaries? Try to end with: “One small thing I can do to support myself today is…”
💕 Self-Care Activity: Sit somewhere comfortable. Put one hand on your chest, one on your stomach. Breathe in slowly for 4 seconds → hold 2 → out for 6. As you breathe out, quietly say: “I’m allowed to slow down.”Do this for a few minutes, then: Stretch your neck and shoulders, or step outside for fresh air. No phone, no multitasking, just a short pause for you.
