I used to believe creativity wasn’t enough. I thought:
“I’m not an expert… I don’t have a brand… I can’t charge money.”
Sound familiar?
Launching That First Pop‑Up Class
One night I decided to just try. No perfect studio. No email list. I hosted a pop-up paint class in a local coffee spot with friends and strangers who showed up because they wanted something fun. It was messy. It was simple. But it worked.
What Made It Work
Price accessibly – low enough to feel low-risk, high enough to validate your time.
Focus on joy – painting pets, storytelling, connection.
Keep it simple – a kit, step‑by‑step, lots of encouragement.
The energy in the room was electric. People came curious, left empowered—and paid for the privilege. That first class paid itself and lit a fire.
The Shift That Followed
I realized real creators don’t wait for permission—they make something work with what they have.
