Gather and Grow: A Milestone Event for Bridal Hair and Makeup Artists
Last week, we had the privilege of participating in an event that felt nothing short of a community celebration - "Gather and Grow." Designed specifically for the vibrant community of bridal hair and makeup artists, this retreat served as a unique platform to connect, share, and learn from one another.
First and foremost, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to the organisers of "Gather and Grow", Natasha and Elisha of Margot and Lace.
The meticulous planning, thoughtfulness, and effort that went into making this event happen did not go unnoticed. Your dedication created an atmosphere of warmth, collaboration, and learning that inspired us all.
A Gathering of Passionate Professionals
Being surrounded by fellow artists, users of Creative Freedom, and industry peers was an incredible experience. The air was filled with stories of challenges and triumphs, laughter over shared experiences, and the buzzing energy of creative minds eager to learn and grow.
The Heart of My Speech: Embracing Change for Empowerment
During the event, I had the honour of addressing this wonderful gathering. Rather than a conventional presentation, we kicked things off with a light-hearted "Have You Ever" game, sparking laughter and nods of agreement as we covered the all-too-familiar scenario. Scroll down and click the image to watch the entire talk.
But beyond the laughter was a deeper message – the essence of why Creative Freedom was born. I shared my personal journey of overcoming burnout and the relentless search for a solution that would address the unique challenges we face in our industry. Creative Freedom is more than just a business management app; it's a testament to our commitment to listen, adapt, and cater specifically to the needs of bridal hair and makeup artists.
A Not-So-Typical Presentation Choosing not to delve into a detailed walkthrough of Creative Freedom's features, I aimed to connect on a more personal level. It was a decision to speak heart-to-heart with my peers.
Listening, Adapting, and Growing Together The spirit of "Gather and Grow" aligned perfectly with our philosophy at Creative Freedom - listening to our users and continuously refining our app to better serve the bridal hair and makeup artist community. Our dedication to sweating the small stuff, addressing the nuances of our industry, and providing a platform that truly supports our intricate roles was at the core of my message.
Looking Forward
As we move forward, embracing digital transformation and leveraging Creative Freedom can revolutionise the way we manage our businesses, enhance our client experiences, and reclaim our time. This event has reinforced our belief in the power of community, the importance of innovation, and the potential for growth when we come together.
For those who attended "Gather and Grow," we hope the insights shared during the event and through Creative Freedom inspire you to enhance your business and personal growth. And for those who couldn't make it, we invite you to explore how Creative Freedom can transform your bridal hair and makeup business.
