You don’t need a bigger idea.
You don’t need perfect branding.
You just need to become the kind of creative who actually hits send.
Learn how to launch your email newsletter as a multi-passionate creative
When I finally stopped overthinking and sent my first newsletter, everything changed.
It wasn’t fancy. It wasn’t perfect. But it opened doors: paid speaking gigs, coaching clients, art commissions, and even the confidence to quit my full-time job.
Since 2019, my little weekly love letter—Good Morning Sunshine—has grown to over 6,000 subscribers and become the most consistent creative practice of my life.
That’s why I built this workshop: so you don’t have to wait years for permission. You can start now.
