Today I’m rather excited to share a conversation with someone who is a bit of an idol of mine, a coach to creative misfits, a maven maker and all round bad ass business woman: Ebonie Allard. I’ve basically been in awe of Ebonie since I saw her speak at an event in Brighton, I also […]
What is an introvert-friendly marketing strategy? Isn’t that a contradiction in terms? Kind of!

What’s that sound? Oh that’s just me banging my head against the wall. Sigh. Whether you’re a freelancer, business owner, or creative hobbyist: when you’re not making any progress with your creative work, life can feel rather frustrating.
