hey!

I hope you are all doing well and finding ways to stay stress-free during this unusual time. Not knowing what to expect in our work, our freelance life, or our industry is all a lot to think about…and I want you all to know that I am here. If you have questions, need someone to chat with or anything at all.

Sometimes, when you are in the dark long enough…you start to see clearly again. Make sense of the shadows. Feel less afraid. And that is where I think we all are. Trying to find our way through the dark. 

So, let’s just sit still a while, let our eyes adjust and let the fear go. 

I just want our community to know that I will be holding space during the coming weeks to help with strategy and to focus on how to prepare for the future. I will reach out weekly via email and offer inspiration on our social media platforms. This is the time to sink into our craft, find our unique voice, and prepare for when things begin to settle and companies and studios alike will need help rebuilding. We have no idea what to expect on the other side of this…so I would like to offer up the idea of exploration and strategy.

Keep people engaged as you explore. Find ways to build community…be there for each other.

Join us on any of our platforms to keep inspired & supported and let’s make the most of this time.

Stay safe & sending love.

Leslie
