22. Embodying the brand + learning to talk about what you do, confidently Sep 08, 2022

Show notes

This week we're answering a question submitted by YOU, a devoted listener, going over how I like to talk about my work… but on an even deeper level, how it's not just talking about art/our business; it's an entire brand.

The key is building confidence and reminding yourself why you do what you do, whether that be through vision boards or group critiques. No matter what you do or sell, if you know your why then you'll always be speaking correctly in my book :)

20. How I got here: Quitting my full-time job to become a full-time artist Aug 24, 2022

Show notes

If you've been wanting to hear an origin story, this is the episode for you! I take you through getting my BFA to my first retail job and how that all worked its way to me being right here, recording this podcast for you.

I'm setting up some hard and fast expectations if you're trying to jump ship from your full-time job, whether it be retail like me or a different, well-paying job with benefits and a 401k. The truth is, anyone can do it. But only YOU know the right way to go about making the leap. Let's get into the nitty gritty and get you inspired and informed on how you can make that leap asap!

Show notes

Today I'm sharing my thoughts on really leaning into our soul's purpose when it's tapping us on the shoulder, hoping we'll pay attention this time. This episode will speak to anyone who is feeling stuck and they aren't sure why. Or, you have a GREAT business model so… why do you dread going to work everyday? Didn't you already do the hard work??!I've recently had a huge (kind of wild and scary but amazing) epiphany around my purpose so I'm sharing it all in this episode. Ride the wave of life with me as we figure this ish out together over the next few months.

Show notes

Let me tell you all about what I've ditched in my business, leveling the good & the bad of social media, falling in love with TikTok, manifesting my way to the top as a NYT #1 best-selling author and choosing to find peace in this new season of life.

I'll do my best to never take a 2.5 month break again, I promise.

But in another very real sense… no promises.
