You know that feeling when everything goes quiet in your business?
No enquiries, no new bookings, and suddenly youâre second-guessing everything â your pricing, your content, your ability to even do this. In this episode, Iâm sharing why those quiet periods happen (even when youâre doing all the right things) and why they donât have to be your normal anymore.
Weâre talking about the deeper reasons behind the feast-and-famine cycle so many creative business owners get stuck in, and what it really looks like to build a business thatâs booked in advance â peacefully, calmly, and in a way that actually supports you.

You might not feel burnt out.
Youâre showing up. Youâre getting through your to-do list. Youâre not lying on the floor crying (at least not today). But⌠things feel heavier than they should. The simplest tasks feel overwhelming. Your creativity feels off. Youâre either too busy or completely disconnected.
In this episode, Iâm talking about the quiet, sneaky signs of burnout that so many creative business owners have just gotten used to - the ones we often dismiss as âjust being tiredâ or âhaving a lot on.â

There are certain projects I always say no to - not because of "red flags", not because they're TERRIBLE clients and not even because they're not potentially good projects... But because they're not my perfect people and they're not the most aligned clients I could work with. And it's important to me to say no to the "not-quite-there" projects, so I can say yes to the "oh-my-god-this-is-the-most-amazing-project" clients!
Iâm sharing the kinds of enquiries that could seem fine on the surface, but that Iâve learned aren't the best for me. These are the projects that I have found aren't best to keep my processes, my schedule and my creativity as peaceful as possible.
Whether youâre in a season of trying to say yes to everything or learning to hold your own boundaries with clients, I hope this episode reminds you that saying no is a powerful part of building a sustainable, spacious creative business.

Feeling like everyone is in a similar creative industry to you? Wondering how to stand out when things feel crowded and you can't stop comparing?
In this episode, Iâm sharing a quieter, more strategic approach to standing out in your own space so you can get booked up with perfect clients - even in saturated spaces. Because the truth is: your uniqueness is your superpower... but you have to know how to define it, share it, and shout it as loud as you can! (In your own way, of course!)
If youâve ever thought âthere are too many people doing this - how can I stand out?â this oneâs for you.

In this episode, Iâm diving into a conversation about pricing, but not in the way you might expect. This isnât just about making more money. Itâs about how undercharging impacts your energy, creativity, and day to day experience in your business.
Youâll hear why pricing too low doesnât just affect your income - it affects your confidence, your client relationships, and even your love for your work. Iâm sharing how undercharging leads to overthinking, burnout, and resentment, and why raising your prices is about so much more than profit - itâs about creating a peaceful, sustainable business that actually feels good to run.
If youâve ever struggled with pricing or felt drained by your projects, this oneâs for you!

Is it just about the organisation? Nope! In this episode, I share how this booking schedule is a full strategy and the pieces of the strategy that most creatives miss out which is why they stay busy and unpeaceful.

Taking the two branches of my business and bringing them together to share all of the work I love to do.

Have you ever thought about how we as humans bring so much uniqueness to our businesses - our experiences, our successes, our failures, our skills and struggles, our goals and versions of success... Yet we're often given the same steps to follow to get to where we want to be.
As a mentor (and as a designer!), I love to bring more human-ness into the businesses of the designers I work with and I'd love to share some of my favourite lessons that I have learnt as I've tried to build my business with myself as a key focus. All of the messiness included!
