It takes time, like WAY more time than you probabl

It takes time, like WAY more time than you probably think it will to get where you dream of being. BUT, don’t give up! It took me a decade to have a sustainable business and after Covid, the backstep of everything I built was so bad I almost gave up.

But, I didn’t. I kept going and I keep going every day.

One of my favorite parts of what I do is sharing all the things I’ve learned about being a creative business owner so that you don’t have to spend as much time as I did struggling.

One of the best and most consistent ways to get that insight and support is through Dear Handmade Life: The Club.

The Club is our members-only community for creative small business owners to get:
💻Expert-led business classes
🥅Mentorship-focused group coaching
👯‍♀️Unlimited support via our members group & your accountability group
ALL of that & more for just over $1 a day!

Comment “MENTOR” and I’ll get you on the waiting list for when we open enrollment.
