Should we use AI and Chat GPT to create content as a small business owner? AI is growing so fast and entrepreneurs are using it to streamline projects, create content, and pretty much do anything they need. But where do we draw the line? 🤖

Tina and I talk about what we love and dislike about AI in this episode. I'll be honest, we're torn; we use it for our businesses, but we talk about the importance of finding balance when using AI. The truth is, it can be extremely helpful with leveraging anything we do, but with the influx of AI, we think that it's making people crave authenticity more than ever before. We go into detail about the best ways to use AI that still keeps our authenticity and human touch alive. 👩‍💻

So if you've been dabbling in AI tools and want to know the best (and worst) ways to use them, you'll love this conversation!

Should you DIY your brand and website, or should you hire someone? We go over allllll the pros and cons of both options. And while yes, Tina and I may be biased as graphic designers (😉), but we know that there is a lot of power in DYI'ing your brand.

I've worked with over 60 clients and there are some consistent patterns I've noticed with the DIY brands vs. professionally designed brands.

There's a lot of ownership and autonomy that comes with building your own brand; we call it the "Frankenstein Method" because you're trying to put together the pieces on your own. It can be a fun, and challenging, process. And in this episode, Tina and I talk about what has happened with all of our clients that have gone from DIY to hiring us as their designers.

We also talk about:
+ Copyright issues you have to keep in mind while DIY'ing (listen if you have a Canva logo!).
+ When the right time is to hire an expert.
+ The fun - and dangers - that come with DIY.
+ How brand designers aren't just about visuals.

If you want to attract more clients, sell more high-ticket offers, and feel more confident with your business, you will loooooove this episode!! I chat with Designer, Bailey Campbell (Bailey Rose Creative), about her life growing up in New Zealand and Bali and how her path led her to being a sought-after brand and website designer. 👩🏽‍💻

There are so many incredible takeaways and reminders throughout this episode - whether you're a budding entrepreneur or years into your business journey, you'll learn a lot from Bailey. She reminds us that you become the expert in your niche as you keep trying and experimenting with skills - it's all about creating as much as you can so you can learn and adapt along the way. 📈

We also talk about:

• What you need to do in the background in order to make big leaps forward.
• How to speak with clients if their wants aren't necessarily what's best for their businesses.
• The foundations we often avoid, yet help the most in our growth: accountants, lawyers, contracts, and more.
• How to up-level all the time so you can sell more high-ticket offers.
• Tips on where to start if you're new or would like a biz refresh.

Bailey has inspired me so much with her growth, her drive to learn so that she can raise her rates and attract more clients, and her unique approach to business. I know she'll inspire you, too! 💫

Would you ever go into a phase of your business where you purposely choose not to have any clients?  That's exactly what I'm doing in Q1; while it's very scary to not have clients by choice, it's also what I need to maintain my work/life balance. And I know it will actually INCREASE my business (and personal) growth! 📈

In this episode with Tina, we talk all about the struggles of being business owners - plus, the ways we have overcome the unavoidable challenges and what has actually helped us 'move the needle.'

We also chat about:

• How to not get caught up in hustle culture.
• What it takes to expand into the next 'level.'
• Raising your prices and the how freebies are keeping you small.
• Ways to celebrate your wins.
• The most important appointment to put in your calendar (this may surprise you!).

There are a million decisions you have to make for your business - this episode will help you figure out where best to put your energy. It's time to stop playing small!

This week we are covering the span of our career in graphic design, including corporate positions and transitioning our freelance design into full-time work. 

Our journeys have been WILD as graphic designers, and nothing like we could have ever imagined. We've gone from making a lot of money while being unhappy, dealing with crappy bosses, and trying to hit those milestone months to being our own bosses and creating businesses that represent our authentic selves. Our most important lesson through all the struggles is that it's so important to not put yourself in a box! 📦

We have learned A LOT, and we're so happy to share the good, the bad, and ugly with you all. 👩🏼‍💻👩‍💻

If you want to access your psychic abilities, definitely tune-in to this episode! 🔮 I was so happy to have Alexis Donkin as a guest; she is a psychic and intuitive mentor who helps 'baby spiritual women:' women who are secretly or newer to spirituality. We talk about how to tap into our psychic abilities. ✨

Alexis also shares her story of growing up psychic as a daughter of ordained ministers, and how we ALL have the ability to access our 4 'Clairs of Intuition' (clairvoyance 👁, clairsentience 💓, claircognizance 🧠, and clairaudience 👂). She gives insights into the greatest challenges we face,  connecting with ascended masters, exploring Spirit in a safe and comfortable way, and how to grow our confidence in our spiritual intuition. 🧘🏼‍♀️

I absolutely love talking all things spirituality, and if you do too, you will definitely resonate with the wisdom that Alexis shares! 💜
