Have you ever completed something meaningful in your creative work, only to find there's no one to share that moment with?
Welcome to our Weekly Wins – a special moment where we take time to celebrate our achievements, both big and small. As creatives who understand the solitary nature of our work, we believe celebrating wins together is an essential part of building a strong, supportive community.
Our weekly celebration of achievements might seem simple, but it serves a powerful purpose. When working independently as authors and creatives, it's easy to focus on what's still left to do rather than acknowledging how far we've come. By sharing our wins – whether significant milestones or small steps forward – we create momentum, build confidence, and strengthen our creative community.
As we mentioned in our conversation, "it feels like we were just here doing a Weekly Wins" – because consistency in recognizing achievements is vital to maintaining motivation and perspective on our creative journeys.
One of the most valuable aspects of sharing our wins is the community connection it creates.
Having people to share your successes with amplifies their impact. When someone recognizes your achievement, it validates your efforts and energizes you to continue pushing forward. Likewise, celebrating others' wins creates a positive, supportive environment where everyone feels valued and motivated.
