Today’s a big day! It’s (re)Launch Day!!
A little history
I started this site as a blog back in 2013. Wow!! More than 10 years ago!
Even then I sort of, kind of had my sights set on Living Daringly someday becoming a business. Not the blog, specifically, but all of my creations.
Both blogging and creating have largely been hobbies. There have been a few collectors and buyers who have my art hanging on their walls or have gifted some of my crafts to friends and family. Their support is so appreciated! And you are appreciated for reading my blog posts!!
Living Daringly is technically a business. I report my income on my taxes and even pay my quarterly sales and use taxes too. (I don’t make enough income for self-employment taxes… Stating for … reasons.) But, I’m still mostly in hobby land right now.
Today!!
So what’s different about today?
I’m relaunching Living Daringly as a business! I want everyone to know about the creations I offer that folks can bring into their homes and I want them to know that I’m offering creative workshops, both in-person and virtually!
Why did I choose to do this? Creating, journaling, meditating, and practicing yoga have all been immensely helpful to me to process past traumas and losses. It’s helped me let go of perfectionism. (A work in progress, for sure.) It’s helped give me a voice to thoughts and emotions where just writing wasn’t enough to get them out!
And I want to share all of that with you!
Elevator pitch & logo
Here’s my elevator pitch for the business. Let me know what you think!
I’m a creator and creative guide who helps people live daringly by curating creative outlets to reveal their power through art play and helps connect people with my bold art creations for their homes.
Art for your home or art gifts for friends and family? I’m your gal.
Looking for a guided creative outlet (in-person or virtually) where you’ll create your own unique and personal art piece? I’m your gal for that too!
*side note* – What do you think of the new logo? With a relaunch, obviously I needed a new look too! I’m so grateful to Julia for designing it for me. If you’re curious, the flower is a night-blooming cereus: a cactus flower that only blooms at night. I love how Julia incorporated the nighttime aspect into it. I worry that the text is a bit hard to read, but I love calligraphy-esque fonts so much that I still chose it.
Closing out
Thank you so much for being a part of this daring journey!
