Oh my goodness, please let me share a moment of celebration with you. Over the last month, I have completely reimagined, rebranded, began rerecorded, and renewed the entire Flourish Membership and member experience. AND IT IS DONE! And it is beautiful. Current members got access to the brand new site early this morning and they've been sharing their adoration with us all day.😭 Honestly, it’s been a HUGE undertaking and it feels amazing to finally release something with so much anticipation built behind it! With that - I'm so excited to FINALLY announce that the Flourish Membership is OPEN! Creativity is calling, my friend. I'll tell you all about it, but first I'm going to celebrate ... with a nap.😴 picture by @callielynchphotography 
If I could narrow down success to one key factor it would be this: long term consistency. Longterm consistency is what will help you make progress on your goals. It’s about dedication, showing up over and over and simply doing the work that sets your soul on fire.🔥 When you consistently keep showing up and producing good work, growth and progress is the natural result. 🌿 When I talk about consistency, there are three topics it pertains to: 1️⃣Consistency in effort. Once you begin to share your special sauce, become a reliable source for it. 2️⃣Consistency in appearance. This is all about the actual presentation of your special sauce - the voice behind your work and the look of your brand. 3️⃣Consistency in self-care. Longterm consistency shouldn't lead to burnout. Consistently show up for yourself, too. Be intentional about not overworking, celebrating the milestones you reach and keeping your priorities in check.❤️ Doing at least one thing each day that moves you towards accomplishing your short terms goals will eventually help you knock out your mid and long term goals. These small actionable items are what will nudge you to move forward each day.🪜 It’s through these small daily tasks that you’ll chip away at accomplishing your goals and make immeasurable progress over the course of 6 months, a year, 5 years and 10+ years!🌟 Whatever you're working towards - YOU'VE GOT THIS!

My very first portfolio, created in 2012. I had spent nearly two years learning Illustrator, gathering inspiration, creating patterns, dreaming up collections and learning how to build this portfolio. I was so proud of it.🌟 I'll never forget how it felt sharing it for the first time. Vulnerable, terrifying, uncomfortable ... but also exciting. I had put everything on the line for this very moment. I found the original email I sent that helped my biggest dream come true (swipe to see it). I walked away from that incredible meeting a fabric designer. That moment changed me forever. I had never had something so impossible become possible in my life before then.😭 Experiencing this proved to me that if I had a big dream, no matter how far away from it I was, I could make it happen through small consistent progress.🪜 It also made me believe in YOU. If you have a dream and a big goal on your heart, you can make it happen. One of the first things that will put it into motion for you, is to proclaim it publicly.📣 SO - I'm inviting you to do just that in the comments below. Share with us your goal, your biggest dream so that we can help put it in motion for you. Better yet - tag an accountability buddy!✨ But be warned - once you proclaim it, THINGS WILL BEGIN TO HAPPEN! A little bit scared? GOOD. That's when you know you're dreaming big enough! 🙌 Picture by @callielynchphotography 
12 years ago today, I started a blog that began my journey as an artist and creative entrepreneur. It was the best decision I ever made. More beauty and abundance has blossomed from these early efforts than I could have ever imagined.🌼 If you’re in the beginning stages there’s one thing I can tell you: longterm consistency is what will you put you ahead. It’s about dedication, showing up over and over and simply DOING THE WORK that sets your soul on fire.🔥When you consistently keep showing up and producing good work, growth is the natural result. Thank you to the women in my life who have put wind under my wings and shown me what was possible.✨ Who in your life has helped you feel the same? // picture by @callielynchphotography ❤️
