Raise Your Hand Say Yes With Tiffany Han

This week's episode of Raise Your Hand Say Yes addresses the question of what to do when a creative idea "doesn't make sense."  Newsflash: Ideas don't have to make sense to the world. They only need to make sense to you. Trust what you know, what you see, and how you want to put things together in your life. Even if – especially if – you’re doing something that no one has thought of before. Congratulations, you’re an innovator. Get to work, you! The world needs it. **100 Rejection Letters** - Registration open through 10/31/16 Show Notes:  Subscribe in itunes Join the RYHSY fb group Thank you to Audible for sponsoring the Summertime Quickie series.

In this week's episode, Erin and I talk about the evolution of her business, and how she transitioned from day job dreamer to blogger to graphic designer to where she is now.

I was so excited this week to chat with Emilie Wapnick of Puttylike for this week's episode of Raise Your Hand Say Yes. We talked all about being what Emilie likes to call a “Multipotentialite”.

We talked about how to get the right kind of support for your varied interests, and different ways to think about multi-passionatism. We also talked about incorporating your many interests into being an entrepreneur (and how sometimes it's okay not to!). And heads up! I'm taking part in the annual Multi Passionates Must Haves bundle sale - this is a bundle of amazing products valued at $1,599 from me, Emilie, Michelle Ward, Jen Louden, Jen Lee, and so many others that is being offered for only $97 through 11:59pm PST on 5/19.

I had THE BEST time interviewing Nicole Antoinette for this week's episode of Raise Your Hand Say Yes.

If you are someone who wants to make a change in your life, but are wondering how to either get started or keep that ball moving forward, this episode will be perfect for you. We talk about what to do when things get hard, why motivation is bullshit, and how to keep going.  PS. Don't forget - there's still time to complete the RYHSY survey.

I loved talking with Lisa Solomon for this week's episode of Raise Your Hand Say Yes. We talked about the myth of living a life of balance, the truth about going to (or not going to!) art school, and the power of daily devotion.

If you're someone who's seeeking balance but finding it elusive, this episode is for you!

This week, I had the good fortune of interviewing Kristen Ley of Thimblepress for Raise Your Hand Say Yes and our conversation was one of my favorites! Kristen's story is the epitome of my raise your hand and say yes philosophy, and it was so inspiring to hear about how she built her business in just a few years by taking risks and keeping her eye on the prize.  In this episode, we also talk about the power of both faith and hustle and how you can keep going when you're trying to juggle a million different things.
