for my 43rd birthday...


I totally forgot to send you my weekly email yesterday...

...because I've been focused on the Challenge, and getting our Pro Calligrapher Bundle ready for a new group of students, and a new Engraving mini-course I'm working on (more on that later πŸ˜‰)...

...and I also turned 43 last week.

And on the surface, it was a perfect birthday week. I went to Disneyland with my husband, had dinner with my daughter, got showered with gifts from all of our line-dancing friends...

But to be honest, I wasn't really THERE for all of it.

Because I was so anxious and focused on the future. Whether this Challenge would go well, if Facebook Ads would work for me or flop... would anyone be paying enough attention to even hear about our kickass courses????...

Until this mug pulled me right out of it and made me cackle out loud:

Yup, it says "unfuckwithable" and it was given to me by a new friend who hardly knows me... but got that vibe from me anyway.

And you know what... she's fucking right!

I've spent the last decade digging deep, throwing myself into crazy adventures, failing hard, forgiving myself and getting up again...

...so that, by now, the only person who can really fuck with me is.... ME.

And I want to help YOU get to this place, too.

A place of undisturbable self-confidence. A place where you genuinely like yourself. A place where you know, deep-down, that you'll aways be ok because you know how to take care of yourself.

If calligraphy could be your first step on that journey... then LET'S GO! (Here's what I have to offer you right now)πŸ‘‡

1️⃣ You can still join our free Calligraphy Challenge!

2️⃣ Podcast: Competition in the Calligraphy World

Someone wrote to me on Instagram with this vulnerable share:

"I'm still afraid to put myself out there because now there are so many more experienced calligraphers than there were back then."
