Snail Mail Superstar

In this episode of the podcast, I'm flying solo to talk about my business plan and how it's changed in 2020. I share why content matters, why Pinterest might just be a better fit for your business than Instagram, and the questions I'm asking myself to guide my business growth as I head toward the new year.

A mega update episode! In this one talking about all the changes to Constellation & Co. and Snail Mail Superstar in 2020 and what's coming next.

Today on the #snailmailsuperstarpodcast I’m talking to my friend Abby about her creative process as a surface pattern designer, her passion for craft cocktails, and her adventures in Star Wars cosplay! We’ve known each other since early college days, so it was super fun to catch up and compare notes.
