Going live on YouTube in 2025 has become one of my favorite ways to connect and share creative projects with you. Subscribe to the channel to get notifications for when I share behind-the-scenes moments, new designs, and exciting updates. Whether it's crafting with live participants or revealing new products, every episode brings something fresh and fun.
I officially started going live on YouTube in 2025 on February 12, and since then, it’s been an adventure. Each day, I let the content flow with whatever’s happening in my design world. Some days, I’m crafting with my team at home. Other days, I’m sharing exclusive details about upcoming events like The Sweet Life of a Designer Summit. No matter the topic, you can always count on a mix of creativity, business insights, and a little bit of fun.
