THE ART OF SHOWING UP: BRANDING + SOCIALS FOR CREATIVES

One workshop. Two strategies. A complete brand transformation.

Calling all creatives, makers and artists  this is the one.

It’s time to stop hiding behind unfinished websites, random social posts, and half-built brands. The Art of Showing Up is our signature branding and social media workshop, designed to help you show up with clarity, confidence and creative style  online and in real life.

This experience brings together everything from our most popular workbooks Be Your Brand and Let’s Get Social into one complete creative deep dive.

The Art of Shopwing up : Workshop: Branding + Socials

You’ll kick things off with two powerful pre-recorded workshops. These sessions are designed to give you time to think, explore and build your questions before stepping into the studio. You’ll also receive guided workbooks to start shaping your story and digital presence.
