It takes courage to express the things you are passionate about and to transcend the limits of your comfort zone. Connecting to your creativity is connecting to your courage. Creativity, like courage, is energy with which you can connect. It is an essential part of who you are, AND it is a practice. Too often people think about creative people or the arts as being endowed from heaven, but as our guest today, illustrator and creator, Heather Harris says “That's not true. You were created, so you are creative!” Don't miss this episode of the Advancing Women Podcast with artist and illustrator, Heather Harris here to help us cultivate creativity through developing a creative practice that fits into our busy lives.

Kimberly interviews former director turned “accidental entrepreneur,” Tirzah Shirai, who created what she calls the "Starbucks of the lash industry,” by setting the standard for natural beauty while practicing conscious leadership as CEO of Blinkbar and scaling to over $30 million, in less than five years, with a plan to expand globally in the next five. Originally from what she calls the “Texas of Canada.” Tirzah is the CEO and founder of Blinkbar, a lash studio that specializes in masterfully-crafted lash extensions with customized application techniques, quality products, and best-in class customer service. Her clients include the Kardshians, as well as nearly every instagram influencer in Los Angeles. Tirzah Started out as a film director who wanted eyelashes for her actresses on camera that would accentuate their eyes and look natural even in their close-ups. She calls herself an “accidental entrepreneur,” having tested the Blinkbar concept back in 2012 after seeing a need to be met in the lash industry and founding the company only a couple years later. In just a few short years, Tirzah and her team (whom she highly praises) have grown Blinkbar to 5 locations in California in Calabasas, hermosa Beach, Sherman Oaks, West Hollywood, Santa Monica, and are expanding globally in the next five years. Tirzah set the standard for lashes by becoming “the Starbucks of Eyelash extensions” and has successfully scaled and positioned BlinkBar as a leader in the lash industry due to their consistency, excellent branding, and smart business strategy. A personal note from Kimberly…. While I have had many a glorious guest on The Princess and the B in our 30-episodes thus far, Tirzah wowed me beyond words. Having known her in a past life, in both of our Hollywood careers, I have had the pleasure of watching her transform from film director into the leader of what I know will be a billion dollar brand. Which left me, in my ever-increasing quest to learn - how the heck does she do it? In NLP, there is a concept called modeling. Meaning, when you see someone getting astounding results you “model” or “try on” how they organize their perceptions of the world. So you “try on” the beliefs, habits, qualities, thoughts, and all the things of the person so as to create a simplified model of their experience that we can then teach to ourselves and others. This episode did just that for me. Not only does Tirzah deliver a masterclass on how to hire, grow, and consciously lead a team, but she shows how to do it while maintaining that glorious feminine-flow of ease. Since this episode, I've… Started reading the 15 Commitments of Conscious Leadership (and if the first chapter doesn't have you cheering, I don't know what will) Read the Blinkist version of “Traction” and started implementing it with my own Queen Team Let go of 2 team members because of my commitment to conscious leadership Had several tough face to face conversations (that needed to be had) Started doing the 5-minute journal every morning and evening (it's amazing, especially as a mompreneur to get laser focused for the day!) Received ridiculous clarity on my “ROCKS” for Crown Yourself. My biggest learning from Tirzah was something her coach taught her, that the CEO is really the Chief ENERGY Officer, and that the energy of the leader ripples into all areas of the business...And, that I need to get more 2-hour massages. Ummm, can someone call, Heather Harris please?

Kimberly interviews former director turned “accidental entrepreneur,” Tirzah Shirai, who created what she calls the "Starbucks of the lash industry,” by setting the standard for natural beauty while practicing conscious leadership as CEO of Blinkbar and scaling to over $30 million, in less than five years, with a plan to expand globally in the next five. Originally from what she calls the “Texas of Canada.” Tirzah is the CEO and founder of Blinkbar, a lash studio that specializes in masterfully-crafted lash extensions with customized application techniques, quality products, and best-in class customer service. Her clients include the Kardshians, as well as nearly every instagram influencer in Los Angeles. Tirzah Started out as a film director who wanted eyelashes for her actresses on camera that would accentuate their eyes and look natural even in their close-ups. She calls herself an “accidental entrepreneur,” having tested the Blinkbar concept back in 2012 after seeing a need to be met in the lash industry and founding the company only a couple years later. In just a few short years, Tirzah and her team (whom she highly praises) have grown Blinkbar to 5 locations in California in  Calabasas, hermosa Beach, Sherman Oaks, West Hollywood, Santa Monica, and are expanding globally in the next five years. Tirzah set the standard for lashes by becoming “the Starbucks of Eyelash extensions” and has successfully scaled and positioned BlinkBar as a leader in the lash industry due to their consistency, excellent branding, and smart business strategy. A personal note from Kimberly…. While I have had many a glorious guest on The Princess and the B in our 30-episodes thus far, Tirzah wowed me beyond words. Having known her in a past life, in both of our Hollywood careers, I have had the pleasure of watching her transform from film director into the leader of what I know will be a billion dollar brand.  Which left me, in my ever-increasing quest to learn - how the heck does she do it? In NLP, there is a concept called modeling. Meaning, when you see someone getting astounding results you “model” or “try on” how they organize their perceptions of the world. So you “try on” the beliefs, habits, qualities, thoughts, and all the things of the person so as to create a simplified model of their experience that we can then teach to ourselves and others. This episode did just that for me. Not only does Tirzah deliver a masterclass on how to hire, grow, and consciously lead a team, but she shows how to do it while maintaining that glorious feminine-flow of ease. Since this episode, I've… Started reading the 15 Commitments of Conscious Leadership (and if the first chapter doesn't have you cheering, I don't know what will) Read the Blinkist version of “Traction” and started implementing it with my own Queen Team Let go of 2 team members because of my commitment to conscious leadership Had several tough face to face conversations (that needed to be had) Started doing the 5-minute journal every morning and evening (it's amazing, especially as a mompreneur to get laser focused for the day!) Received ridiculous clarity on my “ROCKS” for Crown Yourself. My biggest learning from Tirzah was something her coach taught her, that the CEO is really the Chief ENERGY Officer, and that the energy of the leader ripples into all areas of the business...And, that I need to get more 2-hour massages. Ummm, can someone call, Heather Harris please?

The Toy Gun and the Black Son episode: A look back to the Dedric Colvin case in Baltimore. Dedric is the African-American 8th-grader who was wounded by a police officer on April 27 after he spotted the boy with what the officer thought was a handgun. It turned out to be a BB gun that resembles a real gun. Critics, including the American Civil Liberties Union, suggested that police would not have chased and fired on Dedric had he been white. Police Commissioner Kevin Davis, who is white, seemed to agree a few days later, conceding that his own sons, in the same situation, might have been treated differently. But what about parental responsibility and the questionable decision to allow a teenage boy to play with a replica handgun in a city known for gun violence? Heather Harris engages Dan on this subject. She is a professor of business communications at Stevenson University outside Baltimore. She is co-editor of "The Obama Effect," a collection of essays on the 2008 presidential election.

TSBC Alum, Heather Harris has been designing day planners and desk products since 2004 for clients including  momAgenda, Barney’s, Brooks Brothers, and Tiffany & Co. In 2015, she branched out on her own to start Copper Bottom Design Co. where she and her team help product based businesses with design, proofreading and overseas production.  On today’s episode, we’re talking how to know if you’re ready for overseas manufacturing, common errors people make when creating day planners and how her past experiences and skills have led her to create a thriving, enriching business for herself.   ON TODAY’S EPISODE: Heather’s rich background in the industry & what led her to starting Copper Bottom Design.

Benchmarks or metrics to determine if manufacturing overseas is right for you. Common mistakes she sees when people create day planners. What’s upcoming for Copper Bottom Design Co. KEY TAKE-AWAYS:   “There are strategic reasons for choosing overseas manufacturing”  Heather Harris   “When I went out on my own it was lonely.  Then I met the Paper Camp community and I craved a team again.” - Heather Harris   “Manufacturing overseas is just like getting ready to hire an employee. You're at a certain point where you've grown so much that you can't handle it anymore, and you're looking to outsource.” - Heather Harris   Ask for samples.  You can’t create a product without seeing it. - Heather Harris   RESOURCES: Ultimate Holiday Guide E-Book   MEET HEATHER: An avid organizer, list maker, and devoted print girl, Heather has been designing day planners and desk products since 2004. She arrived at the world of fine stationery by way of Graphic Image, where she learned the ropes designing planners internally and for clients like Barney‰Ûªs, Brooks Brothers, and Tiffany & Co. Her love of high-end paper products is a near obsession, shaped by how a carefully crafted design becomes a beautiful, functional part of our daily lives. Her time as Director of Creative Services at momAgenda further expanded this passion to product development; aside from leading all design, she spent years managing the editorial process and overseas production.   In 2015, Heather decided to expand her client base and founded Copper Bottom Design Co., where she and her team take the helm of design, proofreading, and overseas production for growing stationery companies.   CONNECT WITH HEATHER: Website: http://www.copperbottomdesign.com/ Facebook: @copperbtmdesign Instagram: @copperbtmdesign Pinterest: @copperbtmdesign Twitter: @copperbtmdesign   JOIN THE TSBC FAMILY: Need help streamlining your business operations?  Are you feeling a bit stuck in your business?
