I've been noticing something fascinating happening in design right now – While AI innovation rushes forward, there's this equally powerful pull back towards handcrafted work and genuine connection. But, rather than feeling pressured to chase every trend (who has the time!?), through insights from Creative Boom's latest industry report this episode shares which 2025 design trends actually matter for small creative businesses, and how they might best complement what you already do brilliantly. These insights from leading design studios reveal opportunities that play to your natural strengths rather than working against them – and isn't that the kind of trend worth paying attention to? Key Moments: [01:53] Introduction to Creative Boom's 2025 design trends report [03:03] The importance of balancing trend awareness with authentic creative values [04:14] The AI-Human Balance: AI moving beyond ideation to final outputs [06:09] The counter-movement: returning to handcrafted, human-centered design [07:43] The #StarterPackNoAI movement as an example of reclaiming creative space [09:22] The return to physical experiences and creating meaning in a digital world [12:28] The craft renaissance: personalisation, sustainability, and technology integration [14:25] Design experimentation and breaking away from template-driven sameness [16:30] "Minimalist Maximalism" as an emerging visual approach [18:50] How these trends create opportunities for small creative businesses Notable Quotes: "The most successful creative businesses don't blindly follow every trend but thoughtfully incorporate relevant elements that align with their own authentic approach." "This isn't an either/or situation but a rebalancing, where we're getting clearer about where technology adds value and where human creativity remains irreplaceable." "Your greatest asset isn't about how well you follow trends—it's your capacity to create work that only you could make, infused with your combination of skills, experiences, and perspective."

This week's topics include - Life after Lockdowns, Is Videography the future and Instagram for Creative Business Owners.
In this episode we talk about how you may get caught up in using affirmations but not actually receiving any benefit from them. I cover three common mistakes and how to sideline them. While positive thinking can be a helpful mindset, it isn't always sufficient on its own to address all of life's challenges and problems. When you focus so much on thinking positive, you often times will ignore real problems or come up with superficial solutions. This may cause you to suppress your emotions and leads to blind optimism. So we're going to talk about the way that I approach affirmations and positive thinking in my business and also how I've learned to release, trapped emotions Lastly, we'll end with a subconscious release that will set the wheels in place to help you feel more empowered to make positive changes in your life. Cheers! My name is Aubrey and I am an intuitive Coach and healer. For the last 15 years, I have been working one-on-one with my clients to reach their ultimate potential.

My combined work of being a Reiki Master, Subconscious Release Technique Practitioner and a creative entrepreneur has taught me so much about our thoughts impact every aspect of life and I want to share it all with you. Because you know what, I've been there. But at some point, I stopped letting life happen to me, and I created the life that I knew I deserved all along. Join me weekly as I dive into the most common thought patterns that show up in our industry and give you practical solutions to release them never to bother you again. Imagine a life with less stress and free from everyday triggers.

If I could go back to 2014 and give myself some words of wisdom as a new business owner, I'd have a lot to say. I'd give myself a heads-up on every mistake the "older" me would make and share how the "younger" me could avoid those pitfalls. The thing is... Those experiences, especially the bad ones, brought me something incredibly valuable as an entrepreneur: Wisdom. My friend, today's episode of The Kate Show is for the newbies. If you recently started your journey in the home industry, as in, you launched your business less than two years ago, you'll want to listen closely. I'm not dropping any wisdom that is new to the face of the earth, but if you can take a nugget of something with you to make your journey easier, then my job will be complete and I'll shut down my podcast. Just kidding, I have a lot more podcasting to do.
Let me take you behind the scenes of my recent mini-tour in Indonesia.

Why is it that bad things seem to all happen at once? Do you ever take note when good things are all happening at once as well? Or it feels like "the stars are in perfect alignment"-meaning everything works out in an almost miraculous way? From the brilliant Life Coach School founder, Brooke Castillo, I learned how to reprogram the results that were showing up in my life base on the THOUGHT MODEL: C: T: F: A: R: Actually, I learned it from my business coach, Tobi Fairley who introduced me to the tools and Teachings of Brooke Castillo. And I was able to understand it fully by working through situations and struggles in Tobi's Design You Membership for Interior Designers and Creative Business Owners. It's not just a business tool. It's an invaluable life tool. It was part of the final piece of training in my recent alignment challenge. Tune in to discover how these 5 letters can radically transform your life. And even more importantly, how you are showing up for yourself in your life. I also teach my "Future Self" journal practice that helps you tap into the depth and breadth of your inner wisdom at EXACTLY the moment you need it. To see these tools in action you can access the last day of the Alignment Challenge here: https://the-alignment-challenge.simplerosites.com/

“At the end of the day, you're not selling products and services to robots, you're selling products and services to people” - Lorraine Ball Hello Mavericks! Today we get the special pleasure of speaking with the lovely Lorraine Ball - Queen of SEO. Lorraine, a marketing strategist, hosts the very informative podcast (that you should definitely go check out) More Than A Few Words and specifically works with business owners on their content-based SEO. What is content-based SEO? Content-based SEO is written for your customers in mind - not bots and algorithms. It places the focus on creating content that makes sense to your customers; it answers their questions and points them in the next best direction. In response to this, your customer's activity on your site is what is going to signal to the search engine that you are producing quality content that people want to engage with. It's a win-win because it improves both your SEO ranking and your customer conversion rate. Want to learn more about how you can utilize content-based SEO on your website? Listen or read on!

Outsourcing is a common and often used tool in the small business community. Generally, it starts with the need and desire to show up everywhere. In your ambition, you want to do all the things, all the time and in all the right places. Thus begins the pull to hire people to help, so that you don't burn yourself out. How do you avoid the spiral into an outright burnout, but also avoid outsourcing too soon? Find your healthy balance! Its going to be a different path for every business owner and every type of business but you can almost always count on finding your balance and feedback by getting some insight from other Creative Business Owners like yourself. Start by marrying yourself to one source of marketing to get the ball rolling. Then repurpose that; let it grow. Nothing in business happens fast if you don't already have an established audience. It's not always desirable but is the best way to keep your budget under control if your income and profit aren't yet consistent. At the end of the day don't rush yourself into thinking outsourcing is the thing you need right now! If you're in the first few years of business it may not really be an option. Instead, look at one-time projects, collaborations, and one focal point for your marketing until you get the traction and growth. Need more direction and guidance? I challenge you to join The Creative Boss Society and see if you don't gain the direction, strategy and step by step guidance to grow your business.

If there’s a lesson I’ve had to learn over and over again in my business it’s this: take damn good care of the vessel through which your work comes to life.And that vessel? It’s us. I see my clients really start to soar in their journey when they prioritise taking care of themselves in whatever way they want and need to in the season they’re in.And the thing I’ve found is that the rest and self-care that we need can often feel quite radical, indulgent even.In this episode I share with you some of the ways you can embrace radical self care in your own business journey, in the hope that it can crack wide open even more momentum, focus, ease, and joy for you in your creative work and life.Download the worksheetEpisode show notesMore from JenDive Deeper is produced by Sonics Podcasts

We are all looking to discover what our true purpose in life is. We are constantly searching for our “calling.” Our Book of the Month for January, dives into just that. This month we read Believe Bigger: Discover the Path to Your Life Purpose by Marshawn Evans Daniels. In the book, Marshawn dives into what she calls a “Purpose Map”, the path into finding your calling. She shares her own story, along with giving the reader tips and exercises to walk through their own “Purpose Map.” We met Marshawn at the Abound Conference put on by the author of the first book we discussed for our Creative Legacy Podcast book club, Karen Stott. We loved that conference and the speakers, but we were blown away by Marshawn and her talk on this Purpose Map. We knew we had to buy the book to dig even deeper! We were not disappointed either! There are so many takeaways and quotes we loved. Plus Marshawn gives you the space to really dig deep and see where you are at and where you are heading in finding your purpose Sarah's Takeaway It's hard to choose one takeaway, because Marshawn really made me think! I love that this book allows the space to do just that though. There are many spots where she tells you to stop, take a breath and to think about a prompt she gives that help you define how your life experiences, your talents, and gifts can allow you to move into your purpose. I walked away knowing myself, and feeling more confident than ever that I can step into the next stage of my purpose. Shaunae's Takeaway I'm obsessed with this book and Marshawn. This book is FULL of incredible information that will help you discover your purpose, no matter where you are at in life. My favorite part though has to be when she gets to the Influence stage. It helped me realize that I can start impacting others right now. I don't have to get to a certain level, I can start helping right where I'm at. I also loved that she challenges us to just start doing. Your calling isn't something that's told to you. It comes when you go out into the world and start experimenting. Meaningful Quotes: “Chaos is often God's way of inviting us to step into our calling” “God loves us too much to leave us or lose us, so instead he splits us so that true significance can flow from within us” “If you allow yourself to settle for less, no one is obligated to stop you” “Having fun is important, because finding your calling starts with committing to joy.” “You don't find your calling on the sidelines. You find it once you're in it. It's not something to be explained. It's something to be explored. Destiny is not an intellectual exercise. It's experimental.” “God has called every woman to lead. A life of influence and impact is the very center of feminine purpose.” Find The Creative Legacy Podcast Online • Website • Instagram • Facebook • The Creative Legacy Podcast Group Find Sarah Online • Website • Instagram • Facebook • YouTube Find Shaunae Online: • Website • Instagram • Facebook

In today’s episode, I’m going to challenge you on some lies that you may be telling yourself as a creative business owner. These are stories I’ve heard over and over from past students and clients...and if I’m being honest, I’ve caught myself saying them TO myself on occasion. The problem is, these lies keep us stuck, overworked, and underpaid, and make it impossible (if not a heck of a lot harder) to grow our businesses. Let’s confront some of these unthruths and kick them to the curb, shall we?
