Hi! I’m Emily. I joined as a lifetime member when it first launched, but I have attended/completed very few classes. I am a classic dabbler, love learning, and definitely THINK more than I ACT. I do payroll in my day job and started an Etsy shop (print-on-demand T-shirts) to have something creative of my own on the side. Often, I prioritize being productive and don’t allow myself much art “for no reason.” I know I shouldn’t need a reason, and maybe that’s why I started the shop and invested a lot of money in Etsy business coaching. However, it isn’t quite working for me (financially or artistically), so I am back here to challenge myself to work my way through some classes, just because I want to (not with the goal of creating products for my shop). Maybe making friends here will help me stick with it and prioritize ME.
