Rocking the Kincs

As if a pink suede trench coat that I thrifted wasn't enough, I had to go and let Nicki of Kincs by Nicki totally indie-fy it for me.  Nicki is an artist that designs custom T-shirts, jackets, shoes, canvas and much more. To check more of Nicki's offerings please visit.

Go BIG!

As an Inspiration Coach, I speak with clients about writing down the visions and visiting them everyday.  If you would like to know more about that please visit here
Taking my own cues, I took some time to write down my business goals for 2011.  I put them on nice paper and placed them in an area that I can view daily.  What is the Greatest Version of the Grandest Vision you have for your life, your business?
Here is  a partial list of my Vision:
  • Participate in at least 12 Vending Events
  • Get in at least 6 Storefront locations
  • Teach a community beading class
  • Send out 12 press kits for craft, fashion and art magazines
  • Get a TV spot in the spring featuring my beaded bra straps
I would like to hear about your Big Exciting Goals!  Please feel free to share them here.

A Wonderful Example That I Almost Missed Out On

One of my favorite Indie Krushes is Itiel of Smell Good Spa.  Itiel has a remarkable sense of what it takes to operate a self-sustaining home based business. 

Throughout my time of coming to know her a little, Itiel has always demonstrated a sense of accomplishment and perserverence.  Here is what I didnt know.  She has fears just like all of us who work with our hands and pour our hearts into our work.  Check out this blog post and you will also learn about what I almost didn't get to know.

I am so glad she decided to share and equally excited that she followed her heart in the midst of her fear and I am really excited about how this plays out for her.
