Do you know how to value your self & work? Does the 'M' word make you nervous to talk about…(trigger warning: moneyyyy)

For episode 12, I am talking with Ella Lister, ( EllaGrace.Art ) a Sydney based artist who paints the most intricate watercolour paintings one could see. We open up the conversation to discuss the challenges we face as creatives, business owners and entrepreneurs valuing & pricing our work when people may not see it the way we do. It was laid back, honest and really enjoyable. I hope you enjoy it too. 

Show Notes

• Overcoming the starving artist mentality & knowing your worth
• How to deal with friends & family asking for discounts
• Pricing yourself & the obstacles with talking about money
• The power of language & the desire for validation as creators

Quotes

• “People often ask me how to paint like me. Honestly, it’s just hours and hours of practice and loving what you do.”
