The camp was more amazing than I even expected, so thoughtfully and well organized, such interesting and pertinent classes, good timing and good variety, lots of ways to connect with other makers, and lots of fun as well! I got so much out of it, and loved every minute!

It’s hard to say what the MOST valuable thing I learned is when everything was so valuable. I learned a lot about wholesale and E-Commerce sites – but I think the most valuable piece is the connection and networking with other like-minded makers.

I got SO much out of this weekend – information, friends, time spent in surroundings that helped me recenter, delicious food, hope and insight. I’m extremely thankful for the opportunity.

Loved this weekend! So rich, so beneficial. Loved the camp. Loved the thunder! 🌩⛈🌦Best value EVER in my 19 years in business. So, Thank You for creating the totally affordable, super dynamic, creative business conference weekend EVER. And thank you for the courageous session on “political/personal”. I met amazing women doing amazing things at each moment. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

[The most valuable thing I learned ] was that I share the same fears, anxieties and struggles as everyone else. Being around others who are in the same boat gave me a boost of confidence and the drive to keep going. I feel really motivated to get into my studio today, after months of going through a period of struggling with why I’m doing this. Feels like I have my focus back.

I went into camp not really thinking my business was even a business. The most valuable thing I learned at camp was that my business can be as big as I make it, as extensive as I want. It all depends on how much I am willing to put into it. I think I learned that by simply having the time to talk to and listen to other business owners like me. It was nice to know that we are more alike than different. I also learned that there are are so many lovely people/artists in the community who can share their experience and knowledge.

The variety of classes available each day made it possible for me to hit an amazing sweet spot between “decompress and find creativity again” and “get reenergized about the business side of things.” Also I really didn’t expect this (I’m a raging introvert), but I made some truly amazing friends/connections. People showed up and were authentic and vulnerable, made the weekend so uplifting.

Camp was more than I expected in all the good ways! Had so much fun!! Felt at home connecting with fellow creatives and being about to not only learn together but also build relationships with everyone!

[The most valuable thing I learned this weekend was] that I can do it. That there are resources and people to help me in my entrepreneurial journey. The most helpful were really just the more psychological – mental state teachings about being creative and the struggles that come with it.

I got way more than I expected out of camp. I am still glowing even weeks later! There was so much to process, and I’ve made so many awesome connections, and done so much work to my business since the second I got home. It was a truly incredible experience. Thank you so much!
