This week marked my daughter’s 7th birthday, a bit of a cornerstone moment, I’d say.

My business coach told me a month ago to start posting building conversations and stories... you know, do the social selling you do so well for your clients.

Use that time to build momentum; it’s a perfect target to kickstart intentional growth and nurture my audience leading up to your webinar.

Well, you know what they say: if curiosity killed the cat, then procrastination buried the idea. Time to get back on that wagon!

Yes, she really is the ultimate sidekick.

Are you a high achiever who wants a no-nonsense world-class brand?

But you’re tired of big London agency price tags and small brand shops hoodwinking you.

You’re frustrated that they don’t see your big vision for your brand and instead give you something off the shelf that doesn’t do you justice.

To be the cream de la cream in your industry, you need a seasoned luxury expert that knows how to ooze class, sophistication, and just the right amount of attitude.

Want your brand to be the next red-hot ticket?

Take a peek at my ‘brand bind’ and build a ticket that gets you on your feet with fire faster, so you can get down to business and create a premium brand with your signature to outclass the rest.

I’m launching a new offer and I’m looking for a few “case study” clients that I can help get awesome results for their business.

I'll post all the details tomorrow.

Four years ago, I had a wake-up call that changed my life. In the depth of the night, while feeding my baby number two, I had a moment of clarity, a mental reality check if you will, I couldn’t go back to the way things were.

The thought of slipping into my old habits of slipping out the door in the dark and creepy back home after dark was breaking my heart. How could I do that to my kids!

I’m sure I’m not alone in thinking this; I wanted to spend more time with my kids (even if they didn’t appreciate me 🙂 )

In a spark of pure madness, I started my business. I didn’t know what I was doing. I just knew I loved what I was doing. Without an A-Team backing me up, I jumped in, trusting my instinct, learning at lightning pace.

My business is called CULA design; it's an acronym for ‘See you later alligator’ something I would say to my little one’s as I waved them off to school. It’s also a farewell to big advertising and doing it for ‘the man’, now I’m doing it for ‘the fam’.

I guess you'd call me a veteran advertising designer with a flair for the creative, I've worked on some incredible brands, been a brand guardian for over 30 international clients.

A few months ago, I was offering my service as in-person sessions, but now I've built an online brand strategy process.
which works regardless of business type and helps to reach your ideal audience.

It's all about discovering the brilliance in your true story and bring your brand to life.

Throwback Thursday. These were produced while working in London Bridge with my then work-family, Souk Advertising. These projects are just a snippet of the Bar & Restaurant brand work we produced, whether it was against the Mayfair’s elegant backdrop or in Covent Garden’s historical setting - these brands where a joy to work on and reflect the sophistication and style of the Londons Hotel scene.

This has been an on-going passion project. I truly love everything the founder stands for and believe; it has been effortless, and a pure joy to work on. I really hope one day we can franchise this incredible brand. Thank you Tanya White founder of http://shakerskids.co.uk/

Brand strategy is when you get out the 'big guns'. It is where you stop playing in the little league. It is where you start attracting clients at a premium price, for a longer period of time. This is why I love to start with a strategy and build a brand plan.

This was a little job that rolled out at the start of the year. The client wanted a logo but they got so much more. Now they own a space unique to them, their beliefs and resonates with their audience.

This usually is a great big conference held at the QE2 London, but thanks to COVID19 it has been swept into the world of online. In effect, my printed media vanished overnight. Thankfully, I can flip-flop from print and digital and pulled together this lovely illustration design-led work. I have since rolled out a social media kit in which the client can instantaneously connect with their customer base and still retain brand consistency.

I've had a crazy last six months verging on chaotic, no breakdowns to speak of as yet. I want to share some of the work I've been deep in the thick of. Some times I forget to share, so I need to take a leaf out of my book and start doing just that.

I've been listening to a few wise people, and the truth is, you only get one chance at this thing called life, and it is too short to hate what you do and too precious not to do something that lights you up.
I haven't always been exemplary or confident enough to do what I wanted in life, but I've always followed my heart and had the love and support of others to nudge me in the right direction.
And funnily enough, that's what I find myself doing for others now. These 'others' are, in my opinion, intelligent, driven optimistic thinkers (I am never the smart one in the room). They are on a forward trajectory but have hit a plateau and need a push to take them to the next level. Sometimes that push is in the form of a logo, branding or advertising campaign, but mostly it comes in the form of building confidence so they can leap forward.
