Ladies, Wine & Design

Our creative energy has the power to shift perspectives, reimagine systems, and solve the big problems in this life. But too often patterns emerge in civilized society that stifle the flow of our wildest dreams. Product design, like all creative work - requires the obliteration of restraining boundaries. To do our best work as creative professionals, we need to practice embodying our soul selves through living wild. Join Emily McCammon, UX/UI & Product Design consultant, teacher and podcast co-host to celebrate letting your wild energy flow.

No matter who you are, it's easy to see other women succeeding (on Instagram or IRL) and immediately feel jealousy or resentment towards them. We’re all guilty of it — but it’s time to realize that jealousy is our biggest kryptonite when it comes to succeeding in the business world.

“Collab Don’t Compete“ is all about how to overcome that icky feeling towards other successful women, make an effort to collaborate in a mutually beneficial way, and ultimately emerge a more empowered, confident womanpreneur. To start this important dialogue, we’ll be hearing from Niki Robins (co-founder of Spectacle Marketing) and her own personal story as it relates to female collaboration, facilitating group conversations using unique prompts, and allow time for networking as well.

When we feel love, we open ourselves up to more opportunities, more abundance, more wealth, more joy – literally, more everything. And when we hold onto jealousy, we just end up burning ourselves. When we as women come together to support one another, burst through glass ceilings, and tell our own unique stories, there is nothing we can’t accomplish.

There are many moving parts to design and branding; and spoiler…having a cool logo won’t make you the next Nike or Apple. We tend to overthink the process of branding to the point that we get away from the "brass tacks" of it all and the strategy to complement it. Whether it is design for the digital world or a tangible interaction, it all comes down to how something makes us feel. Becky Mickletz, with ReMickz Marketing, will share tips and tricks from her experience to approach the fonts, the colors, and the nitty-gritty details that will make all the difference in enhancing your brand experience. She will dive into every moving piece of your brand, and how applying strategies like simply changing a font could completely elevate your brand's message.
