    #108 - Branding Isn’t A Logo; It’s How People Decide To Choose You

    Send me a Text Message. Am I my brand? And does branding even matter when I’m a tiny, one-person creative business? In this episode, I untangle the belief that branding is mostly fonts, logos, and pretty photos, and I lean on Brand the Change to explore branding as direction – a compass for how you show up, what you say yes to, and how people experience your work. I share examples from the knitting world, some brands that randomply popped up in my head and that's saying much in itself (think Stephen West, Rowan, Hedgehog Fibres), talk about my own journey from yarn shop to coaching, and get honest about boundaries, privacy, and starting a YouTube channel without burning myself out. I close with journaling questions to help you see where your branding already shines, and how you can use it as a tool instead of a costume. • Watch the video version on my YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/@pattern-shift   You know me as a guide, mentor and teacher, but I've also set off on a new adventure, coaching.

    #107 - Planning Doesn’t Kill Creativity — It Protects It

    Send me a Text Message. - How I separate ideas from tasks, plan by energy, and keep marketing simple -  Planning doesn’t have to kill creativity. In this episode, I share how I plan with a neurodivergent, creative brain—lightly. Using examples from some of my clients, I separate ideas from tasks, choose one daily priority, and use soft time blocks guided by energy instead of the clock. I talk about how Bullet Journaling® supports me (without needing pretty pages), how I turned my phone into a tool, and why monthly/weekly/daily funnels keep my daily list truly doable. If you’ve tried rigid systems and rebelled, this is for you. Planning can protect your freedom, help you make more, and keep your marketing consistent—without heroic last-minute sprints.

    #106 - Why Smart, Creative People Avoid Coaching — and Why They Shouldn’t

    Send me a Text Message. I’ve noticed that many smart, creative people avoid coaching because they think it’s only for people who are lost, unsure or corporate CEO's. In this episode of Pattern Shift, I challenge that idea. I share my own stories as both a coach and a client, from working with ADHD and lifestyle coaches on my weightloss journey to helping my clients rediscover joy in their creative work. With humor, honesty, and a healthy dose of Dutch pragmatism, I explain how coaching differs from consulting, mentoring, and therapy—and why it’s such a powerful way to find clarity when you’re ready to grow. I also talk about how our cultural tendency to “doe maar normaal” can make asking for support feel uncomfortable, even when it’s exactly what we need. If you’ve ever thought coaching wasn’t “for you,” this episode might shift your perspective.  You know me as a guide, mentor and teacher, but I've also set off on a new adventure, coaching. Coaching gets a bad rep sometimes, but when it's done right, it can be really transformational. As part of my coaching education, I'll soon need to do real coaching sessions.
