DAILY INSPIRATION ON INSTAGRAM

So much yes to this 🙌🏼 exposure and free stuff can only get you so far when you have a business to grow and bills to pay! Read more of our wonderful interview with content creator and influencer @samishome at the link in our profile and stories.
Samantha Wong @samishome is a content creator based in Hong Kong. She began as a prop stylist working on ad campaigns and print editorial. With the rise of Instagram and mobile technology, she now focuses most of her time flatlaying for brands who need a constant flow of digital content for their social media channels. Her clients include Cathay Pacific, W Hotels, Cartier, Calvin Klein, and BMW, to name a few. She is also the editor of the blog, Sam is Home, which launched in 2010 embracing fashion, food and lifestyle. We loved learning about Samantha’s path, honest reflection on the struggles of getting paid as an influencer, tips for breaking into the content creation industry, and of course her gorgeous photos!

Mattie Tiegreen @mattietiegreen is the creative behind Green Tie Studio, a small design house with an affinity for minimal design and genuine connection. She has been a full-time designer since 2012 and has experienced meaningful shifts along the way including motherhood and maternity leave this past summer. We loved reading about her journey and don’t want to give too much away, so without further ado, click on our profile link and enjoy!
While wanderlust and dreaming up your future is totally valid and important, sometimes it is nice to just be present in the moment. Lettering by this weeks interviewee @mattietiegreen - we loved learning about her business journey especially about her transition to being a freelancing mama. Link in profile!
I believe her and admire her courage to share her story, her trauma, with the world watching. I know many of you, my beautiful and talented female following, have experienced sexual assault. Today must have been very hard and triggering, just want to let you know that this community believes you, we support you, and we are so sorry for what you have been through. 💛Artwork by @merylrowin
It wasn’t until the age of 49 that Betsy of @february13creative found her true calling to create a business helping other artists build their brands and pursue their dreams. But of course all of her years in other fields (like licensing, art directing, publicity etc) helped to lead her to the career that she has now. I know most of us are in our 20’s and 30’s (according to my stats!) and feel immense pressure to have it all figured out. But as Betsy says - often it just takes experience and time to feel like you have found your purpose. So be gentle on yourself and know that things so often take time ❤️ I highly suggest reading this interview, such great insight and some really poignant tips for how to stand out as an artist.
This week we are talking to #CreativeLadyDirectory member Besty Cordes who is the art maker-director-lover, creative matchmaker, cheerleader, and strategist behind @february13creative, a business advising agency devoted to serving a special breed of creative professionals, one they call the “art brand entrepreneur.” This is an in-depth and rich interview that is worth slowing down for!

Have a happy start to the week. Love this from @worthwhilepaper ❤️
