Happy Friday!

Once again, here you are reading my musings for the week. If you made it this far, thanks for following my weekly pep talk! Sometimes I feel like this is more of a self-help blog than a design blog - but it's where my head goes while I'm doing my work, so you're along for the ride... and hey, if you're just here for a free lettering piece that's okay too! ;)

If you've gotten anything out of my Freehand Friday posts, I hope it's a desire to travel, explore and try new things. 2017 has been the year of the unknown for me; I started Freehand Collective, I left my 9-5, I had no idea how I was going to make ends meet, but I'm doing it! And I'm damn proud that I jumped. If you've even had a feeling that you want to shake up your life, this is the place for you to come when you decide to do it. I feel like a cheerleader these days for all the people who want to do something new - DO IT! Here I am on the sidelines, I made the jump and trust me it's worth it. People don't naturally fall on their faces, you put your hands out. You will make ends meet, you will find a way to succeed and there are tons of people around you ready to lift you up and send you on your merry way.

I hope this year is filled with new adventures for all of you. Will you travel? Will you move? Will you start a new job? I'm excited to see what the year has in store for all of us.

Here's to you - Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!
