👋 About Rebecca 👋
I’ve been a self-employed creative since 2010. If it wasn't for patient mentors, there's no way I would have survived that first year of entrepreneurship, let alone the following decade+. You don’t have to do this on your own. I know firsthand that making a living from the things we make is challenging. But with the right support network, it is possible.
