The world needs to change. The injustice, the crue The world needs to change. The injustice, the cruelty, the ignorance, the intolerance, the silence, the racism that is riddled through institutions we live by and within the fabric of society that we live in, needs to change. Nobody is immune to its insidious impact. It is everywhere, so deeply ingrained that sometimes we don’t realize its presence. It’s past time to know better, to do better, to be better. . Change begins with individuals. We are each and every one of us an individual capable of great change IF we apply ourselves. We need to read more, to educate ourselves more, to listen more, to start more conversations, to see even more uncomfortable conversations through, to donate money to organizations fighting for justice, to raise our voices, to sign petitions, to level up our support for those who need it most, to take action – and to be consistent with our efforts. . The world IS unjust. It has been for a very long time. It needs to change and we are the ones who need to change it. Together. . . #blacklivesmatter #icantbreathe #listenbelieveact #useyourplatform
What is your happy place at the moment? Has it cha What is your happy place at the moment? Has it changed? Is it something you've always been aware of? Perhaps we're not in our happy places all day every day anymore, but there are still glimmers of it that we can step in to for brief moments of relief. Mine is still photography. While I'm not doing any commercial shoots during this time, I've been quietly shooting some little personal projects at home just for me. And for those moments, I breathe easier, I tap into joy and am gloriously, fully present in my space and life, if only for a little while. ♡ . . .
Take the ego out of your effort. Focus on what you Take the ego out of your effort. Focus on what you can do to intentionally help your community, your people, and your customers, especially now. Ego has always hindered progress in business; it has always clouded sound judgement and effective decision making. Your business has never been about you; it's always been about how you can serve others meaningfully. Let's not lose sight of this in the best of times or the worst of times. ♡ . . .
The time is now. We literally only have now. So wh The time is now. We literally only have now. So what are you doing with your now? . • Is there a project you've been wanting to start? • Have you been taking time to rest and reflect? • Are you picking up a new activity to feed your soul, like painting or writing? • Are you moving your brand online? • Are you playing with your kids or pets? • Are you taking things day by day? • Are you working out more? • Are you developing a new product or service? • Are you taking time to day dream? • Are you just being in all your forms? . What does your now look like? ♡ . .
Something beautiful that I've been noticing during Something beautiful that I've been noticing during this time of lockdown is that people are showing up as they are. No makeup, simple comfortable clothes, messy hair and zero f*cks given. And it is warming my heart. We are enough as we are. We are capabale as we are. We are professional, strong and worthy as we are. Let's hold on to this if we can and remember that we don't need to be all dolled up to rock a meeting, to have our photo taken or to show up meaningfully. ♡ . .
I'm all about building. It's my personal philosoph I'm all about building. It's my personal philosophy and a mindset that I've always carried with me in life and in work (it's too big a thing to unpack in an Instagram caption, so if you want to learn more about what I mean, first #LINKINBIO). . But building doesn't look the same for everyone. Neither does rest. Neither does grief, peace, happiness, fear, hope etc etc. Create your own definitions, especially during this time. . Nobody can tell you the 'right way' to get through this. Nobody has 'the answers' and nobody has 'a blueprint,' because nobody has been through this before. We all simply have ideas that we're sharing and they're not all going to apply to you. That's ok. . Create your own definitions for what you need, for what resonates with you and for what helps you through. And, of course, stay home to keep everyone safe. ♡ . . .
I wrote a personal piece about what I'm choosing t I wrote a personal piece about what I'm choosing to do amid the pandemic for my professional and personal life. I wasn't sure if I was going to share when I penned it. I considered writing it just for me. But then I thought, if sharing this helps even one other person, that's a good thing. So it's available to read via the FIRST #LINKINBIO if you're interested. Or save this post and read it later if you want. It begins by talking about Batman... ♡ . . .
Every caption I try to write here at the moment fe Every caption I try to write here at the moment feels... not right. So instead let me just tell you what Gooseberry has been up to during all of this. Mainly, we've been getting our clients set up for the lockdown period, which means: creating pivoted brand strategies, brand identities for those who didn't yet have them, bolstered online presences, fresh website designs, virtual portals, social media strategy makeovers, massive content shifts and developing new ways to serve and connect with their people. We should all be thankful for the internet for helping keep us all connected and for giving many small businesses a chance to endure. The benefit of being a creative entrepreneur is that when times get tough, we find ways to problem solve what we can creatively. I hope you're all well and safe ♡ . . .
