From the heart of Bloom Stud.io in Akron, I give you a delicate dance of flora and fauna-a serpent drawn in pencil, her textured scales digitally enhanced with color to embrace a richly red apple, a symbol steeped in lore. Soft pink apple blossoms bloom atop, a delicate and sweet contrast. Against the deep blue quietude, this piece, poised between tradition and innovation, could soon grace your walls- I am considering a limited edition print release.

This piece is an example of a style that could enliven your book or Brand's marketing-I love bridging the gap between the digital world with traditional techniques. At .io my goal is to breathe life into your products and marketing to grow strong connections between you and your customers.

Today, I found myself lost in the mesmerizing narrative of "Life of Pi." What a journey! It served as a gentle reminder of the profound bond between storytelling, fables, and our spiritual essence. In every tale spun, there exists a mirror to our own existence, a subtle moral offering guidance. It inspired this new piece- a leopard gazing into the starlit night.

Illustration brings these tales depth and dimension. I seek to help creators and mentors captivate their audiences, be they small children or adult students. Let's illuminate the world of storytelling together.

Did you ever get to meet one of your idols in your industry? I did. Well, sort of. Let me explain. . .

When I was in college, we were given something called a "Kinetic type" project. Essentially, we were to take an audio clip (usually a music clip), and add moving type to it as motion graphics practice.

I had this idea to talk to one of the design greats and use the interview for my project. (much of graphic design history is recent enough to still have many living "design greats" in our history books.) My question? How do they find inspiration? What do they find inspiring?

I wouldn't blame you if you don't know the great names of my industry, but I can tell you that the moment I heard someone on the other side actually pick up the phone and say "Hello," my little college student heart nearly leapt out of my chest, fingers instantly began trembling, in complete disbelief that I got anyone to pick up, let alone at the agency of the Milton Glaser.

Long story short, I was able to talk to him. He was a kind man who took time out for college students and the little people he could have very easily passed over.

His answer to my question took me off guard, but was something I needed to hear as a student. My poor memory can't give you a transcript, but I can paraphrase:

Inspiration can come in many forms, and be something as simple as the way light hits off a piece of cellophane. But the inspiration isn't the part that matters. What matters is what you do with that inspiration.

Tell me in the comments: what does your highest self look like? How do you want to feel in your business and in your life? Do you have goals for yourself or your business for 2022?

For 2022, I want to embody quiet strength and inner peace. Not only stating my boundaries, but enforcing them kindly but firmly. To put less emphasis on people pleasing and more emphasis on creating a business that creates phenomenal client work while also giving myself space to breathe as well as find what exact mixture of ingredients create my visual special sauce.

If you want more love, give more love. If you want more excitement, give more excitement. What do you think?

When I was still learning the ins and outs of working in the corporate world, I found that projecting energy of any kind often resulted in me receiving that same energy back.

I have challenges with anxiety, and sometimes it can create this vicious circle: you go into a presentation feeling anxious and perhaps under confident, and it results in the people watching feeling uncomfortable and not confident in you either.

I learned it was up to me to find a way to channel this anxious energy and create a re-frame for myself. I began telling myself, "You're not anxious, you're excited." I would amp myself up and do a little stretching and jumping around a few minutes before my presentation, and make sure to use hand gestures and not lock my legs while presenting.

This reframe resulted in a more dynamic presentation, a more comfortable me, and more interested audience. This isn't just for presentations, either. I've applied this to resumes, client calls, and more to help create better outcomes for myself and others.

How do you want someone else to feel when they're talking to you? Project that feeling forward.

Business can be complicated and scary. But it can also be incredibly rewarding. I am a solopreneur, but there are plenty of days I wish I had a business partner to celebrate wins with, or talk through problems with.โ 
โ 
Then again, there are some advantages to being a solopreneur. You can do exactly what you want, exactly the way you like it. What do you think? Which would you prefer for your business, if you had the choice?โ

Here's mine: taking more time to engage with you guys. Social media can be hard for me, as an introvert. Starting conversations hasn't ever really been my strong point. But I adore this community of business women, and I love seeing what you're all working on. ๐Ÿฅฐ
