if you own a creative business, you need this!

I have been listening to Elizabeth's podcast since she started it, and the information that she so freely gives away is invaluable. You're basically getting an admired leader in the quilting industry as your mentor for free!

What I love the most about listening is that I always walk away with at least one thing that I can execute right away- whether it pertains to my mindset or the details of my business. When I execute these tidbits, I see small wins that keep me motivated and moving forward.

About 9 months into my business, I was forced to take a months-long hiatus, and listening to Elizabeth's podcast is what gave me the energy, confidence, and determination to get back to business. Elizabeth's honesty about the ups and downs of entrepreneurship lets you know that your experiences are normal and valid, so you can keep moving forward instead of feeling alone and giving up.

I have taken both the pattern writing course and the craft to career course, and I have learned that Elizabeth is the real deal. If you implement what she teaches you, you will absolutely see success!

Like time with a friend

I'm enjoying listening to Craft to Career podcast so much because it's like listening to a friend that gets me! As a quilt shop owner, it's great to have a podcast to listen to that motivates, encourages, and inspires me as a business owner and as a quilter. Episode 111 just spoke directly to me right here, right now. thank you, Elizabeth, for this podcast!
