Usually when I write a blog post, I start off with a personal anecdote to get you to see the significance of the post’s topic. And that’s because I really want YOU to want THIS information. I really want YOUR BRAND to want to look amazing and credible to your audience. I can’t express how it feels when I’m approached…
Organization! Let’s talk about it! It’s the hardest thing for me to do well. Being a creative, I just want to flow. I want to go from one thing to the next seamlessly and never have to document, count, or be held accountable for anything. (Some of my super organized folks just cringed.) I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to offend…
There are so many things that go into a business. You have to be a customer service representative, a CEO, a CFO, an accountant, a marketing specialist, a content creator, and a designer. Wow! That’s quite a list. What’s more, you still have a personal life aka being a parent, sister, brother, son, daughter, aunt, uncle, best friend, and any other…
This post is for you if you have ever felt like Photoshop was too intimidating. It is also for you if you have been considering learning Photoshop and using it as a tool for your visual brand and business. Or, if you already know Photoshop, but for some reason feel limited or ned some inspiration. People have asked me on…
I could write this post and claim to be an expert on going independent. I’m talking about the art of breaking away from the 9 to 5, pursuing your creative urges and making it happen in spite of all the challenges that go along with freelancing, starting your own business or just chasing those entrepreneurial dreams. I admit it. I’m not…
Don’t get me wrong. I’m sure we could talk about at least 10 other things that need your attention when you are turning your side-gig into your main-gig, but as someone who made that leap (and sometimes feels as if she is still on a ledge looking down), I noticed 5 areas that really affected me. I’m sharing them with you…
All of our chaos looks different and enters/exits our lives at different times. You may be in free fall because of a change in relationship status, a drop in your income, or your overwhelming and unexpected success that you now have to figure out and manage. There is also the distinct possibility you feel like you’re in free fall because…
Let’s face it. People like pretty. Admittedly, pretty doesn’t mean the same thing to everyone (and I’m grateful for that), but regardless, people like what they think is pretty. When it comes to your brand, the best thing you can do is make it as universally “pretty” as you can. Need help thinking through your “pretty”? I created a little sumthin’…
This is me . . . finding my community. . . my tribe. I’m talking about my peeps that think the way I do. But it’s hard for me to wrap my head around finding people with whom I share common ground if we haven’t defined the ground on which we stand. (Wow, that was dramatic). So, I’m defining the…
Hopefully, we are all familiar with the concept of social cues. You know, the subtle hints that guide conversations and social interactions both personally and professionally? Some people have a hard time with social cues, and, as a society, it’s important that we are patient with each other. However, when it comes to business, I don’t want to you to…
