    This week I am stoked to have Michael Janda. He is changing the way designers and creatives do business by changing the way they think about pricing and communicate with customers. He is an author, entrepreneur, and coach but started out as a designer at a copy shop. He knows where drive and determination can take someone. His story is full of hope He believes in being a leader that serves.
    Love on Designers is a way for us to love on, thank and appreciate the people who have helped us get where we are. We also spend time this month reaching out to encourage people around us who are starting out or getting their feet wet and may need some encouragement and love.

    Are you working on a side project, planning for it to be your full time gig?
    Do you know how to turn a side hustle into enough money or more than you are making at your full time job?
    Do you want to work for yourself?
    Do you know how to niche down, how to find your sweet spot within our industry?
    Have you had trouble finding clients or marketing yourself?
    If you answered yes then this week is going to answer your questions. This week launches Love on Designers with a designer I admire and have known for a long time. I have such respect for his process, craft, and artistry. This week's guest is Jason Carne. What a better way to give some love and hope for the first week of Love on Designers Month.
    Love on Designers is a way for us to love on, thank and appreciate the people who have helped us get where we are. We also spend time this month reaching out to encourage people around us who are starting out or getting their feet wet and may need some encouragement and love.
    Here are the prompts for this week, try and do one of these this week. Snap a photo and use the hashtag #loveondesigners when you post it.
    WEEK 1 is ENERGIZE
    Take someone to coffee, bring someone a coffee or soda or red bull. Be positive energy for others in meetings this week. Kim and I are creating some great cards again and maybe you will create one or two of your own this month. We would love to see what you make that is inspired from the love on designers theme.

  • Making a Children's Book with Lydia Rueger
    Want to publish your first children's book?
    Do you know how to find a designer? an illustrator?
    Are you starting to illustrate a children's book and you want to know the process?
    Sustainable design, recycled paper for illustration, cut paper, security envelopes, new use, ADHD, ADD, Victor Vroom, Victor and the Vroom, old friends, the importance of relationships, collage, children's book, illustration.
    Episode 324. Aired Thursday, December 12, 2019.
    Victor looks similar to the other cars in his class, but under his hood is an engine that sounds like no one else’s:
    His engine helps him do interesting things the other cars can’t, but the sound also gets him in a lot of trouble. Should Victor fix his engine? Or does the engine sound exactly the way it’s supposed to?
    This week is special. Today I am so excited to share I've finished my first children's book and it's on the shelves of Amazon. Coming soon to book stores near you. This book is special because it is about a car with ADHD. This summer I was diagnosed with ADHD, something I had a hunch I'd had all my life.
    My friend Lydia Rueger wrote the book. We used to work together in Colorado. We talk about the publishing industry today. How a writer can find an illustrator, and the process we took as we collaborated on this project.
