Un-Monetizing My Hobby: Designing in Alignment

Welcome to a brand new chapter. In this video, I’m pulling back the curtain on a major creative pivot. I'm sharing the honest truth about why I closed my art mail club before it even fully launched, what happens when nobody signs up for your project, and why "failing" was the best thing that could have happened to my creativity. Sometimes, un-monetizing your hobby is the only way to save it. By protecting my traditional fine art as a sacred space just for joy and learning, I’ve finally found the clarity to step into my true zone of genius: graphic design and visual branding.
