Dreams Into Action

In this energising episode of The Inclusion Bites Podcast, Joanne Lockwood welcomes Janet Tanguay for an enlightening conversation on turning ‘Dreams Into Action.’ Joanne explores her own journey of self-employment and the shift from working in her business to working on it, whilst Janet explains how she helps clients clarify, visualise, and manifest their aspirations using inclusive visioning practices. The discussion traverses the emotional realities of leaving the safety of employment, breaking routine, and building entrepreneurial purpose through authenticity and resilience. They also consider the significance of vision boards and how powerful it is to crystallise hopes and dreams into visual, tangible representations, making the dream-building process accessible and inclusive to all, regardless of background or means. Janet is a business strategist, creative catalyst, and self-described ‘super connector’ who takes pride in her Abenaki First Nation heritage. Based in upstate New York, she draws on her ancestral roots and wide-ranging experience in community building, entrepreneurship, and expressive arts to support others in manifesting their dreams. Her work spans diverse groups—from marginalised communities to high-net-worth individuals—focusing on inclusivity, cultural relevance, and creating spaces where authentic aspirations can take shape. Janet’s approach features vision board workshops that integrate everything from traditional collage making to AI technology, sound healing, and even music composition through platforms such as Suno, ensuring clients can see themselves in their dreams and express them in ways that feel meaningful and achievable. Throughout their conversation, Joanne and Janet challenge listeners to recognise common blocks to pursuing dreams, such as cultural conditioning, self-doubt, and practical constraints, and offer practical strategies to move beyond them. The episode highlights the deep human need for belonging, purpose, and joy, and showcases how intentional inclusivity, creativity, and connection can help individuals and communities to thrive. A key takeaway from this episode is the invitation to actively visualise, articulate, and nurture your dreams—proving that real change begins with having the courage to imagine and the commitment to act. Listeners will be inspired to build their own vision boards and harness the power of community and creativity to turn dreams into reality.
