Free resources to support your creative practice, digital tools I rely on, frequent collaborators, and organizations doing important work. Things that shape how I work and move through the world.

Freebies

Tools and practices to help you slow down, make more, and tend to your work.

    The Creative Ideation Portal

    Over three days, I'll send you one email a day with exercises and journaling prompts to get clear on the things you want to make happen in your home, business, and hobbies. Think of it as your own mini research retreat—fun, free, easeful, and designed to get you unstuck.

  • Five printed postcards with the words "FREE PALESTINE" arranged in a square, held in a person's hand against a patchwork fabric background.

    Weaving in Our Values Toolkit

    A Notion toolkit about giving and weaving your values into your business. Includes journaling prompts, step-by-step instructions for running a mutual aid raffle, fifty-nine ways to be more radical in your work, and a reading list.

  • A woman with curly hair wearing glasses and a purple shirt is working at a cluttered desk with a vintage computer, surrounded by stacks of paper and files, in a home office.

    Note Taking Tools Guide

    A guide of all my favorite note taking supplies—analog and digital. I wanted to provide an accessible resource of everything I use to take notes, organize my research, and explore the possibilities of organization.

  • A person with tattoos, sitting cross-legged on a yoga mat indoors, making a hand gesture, and smiling with their eyes closed.

    Pilates Warm Up

    A free 14-minute beginner-friendly Pilates warmup video. For all bodies in all spaces—no props, no music, no spandex. All you need is a mat.
