• Does your current branding have room to grow? ✨ 
______
A few questions you can ask yourself... Is your current brand design and messaging based on trends or the true heart of your biz?

Is your brand authentic to you or what you think it SHOULD look and sound like?

Does your biz name have room for growth or are you stuck in one small niche? 👈 To clarify your current niche isn’t bad, but backing yourself up in a corner for possible change and growth most definitely is!

Does your wording work for growth within your biz? Example: Do you say “I” a lot in your website copy when you’d really like to grow a team one day soon? 
______
Setting up a brand designed for longevity and growth towards your dream vision will allow you to step into that roll sooner than you think 🤯 and with less redoing once you get there 🙌

  • Thank you @julietcobodo for taking the time last night to give so much insight on what it’s like to be a black, brown, indigenous, and/or person of color in the world today 🖤

______
☝️In no way am I an authority here, and I’m 100% showing up imperfectly... but I wanted to share what I’ve learned. This post is a visual illustration of one big takeaway during the workshop. We as humans have mindset blocks to work on, but BBIPOC have additional layers of blocks. Oppression, racism, micro-aggressions, and cultural appropriation (to name a few) have made it harder for the black community to thrive authentically (not tokenism!) in our society. 
______
Moving forward in my life and biz, I’m ready to do this work, my own inner work, in order to help eliminate oppression. 
______
I’d like to keep learning and sharing what I’ve learned 〰️ feel free to share below resources, people that inspire you through this movement, books, movies, podcasts, you name it! 👇 Let’s share with each other and keep this momentum going!

  • This memory popped up in my head a few weeks ago when @pinegateroad talked about how so many of us entrepreneurs hold the value of freedom so dearly in our hearts ✨

______
Sitting in my room on my laptop googling the above 👆 was the first time I really started thinking about running my own biz. It was right after I traveled to Europe, and I realized how much I desire freedom in my life. To work the way I want, where I want, and how I want ✨ 
______
It’s been a long journey from that day in November a little over 10 years ago 〰️ and I’m so thankful I kept working towards that desire to live freely ✨

______

  • May Mood 〰️ warmer tones for warmer days and feelings of needing to just sit in the sun for long periods of time 🌞 
______
I love creating these mood boards because it allows for a moment to stop and seek out inspiration ✨ I try my best to look for things that are not 100% brand design related 〰️ it gives my mind a rest... and normally with these I pick out what I’m intuitively drawn to 💫 = less brains power, more meditative processing. 
______

  • I read this line in a book years ago and it truly changed how I thought about taking chances and, well, doing anything that freaked me out 🙈✨ Whenever I look back on a certain time in my life, I realize how small those fears really were. There’s something about transporting myself to the future 80-year-old me that gives perspective and permission to just go for it ✨

______
Take that freaked out leap of faith 🙌✨
