In my last post I talked about why I am creating a Patreon Page as part of my upcoming product line, The Real Things Collection.
Inside this community, you will find resources for keeping your creativity alive in playful ways.
Would you like to hear my Patreon Club’s motto? Because we do have one :).
Here it is:
Nurture what you love, and grow into who you were created to be.
And that’s the gist of why I am creating a Patreon page.
It’s a community to support each other in our creative pursuits, with clear boundaries for what we want our creativity to look like (see below), away from The Algorithm and targeted ads of social media.
Couldn’t you just get off social media and cultivate creativity in your real life?
Absolutely. And that is exactly what I hope my Patreon page will inspire all of us to do:
To get offline and see our own small sphere of influence as full of possibilities!
The exclusive content I will be offering to my patrons will be specifically geared to engaging more fully in your real life — resources to nurture each of us in our own unique creative callings.
You’ve heard our motto, now here are the four guiding principles for everything I’ll be sharing in this private community.
The Four Guiding Principles of the creative heroine mindset:
1) CULTIVATE an awareness for creativity in yourself and others.
2) NURTURE creative habits in yourself and others.
3) CREATE from love, joy, and gratitude, without fear.
4) TRUST that the creative process takes time and involves lots of growing pains, but it always leads to growth.
If you consider yourself a creative, or if you have creative kids in your life whose creative habits you want to nurture, this “club” will be an inspirational sanctuary full of encouragement (including lots of printables to launch creative play)!
How will my Patreon Page be different from the Kindred Spirit Club?
The Kindred Spirit Club is my email list (if you aren’t subscribed, you can do that by scrolling to the bottom of this page). You will always be in the Kindred Spirit Club unless you choose to unsubscribe.
The Kindred Spirit Club is also our private Facebook page, which I will keep up for the purposes of new product line releases (I love our virtual launch parties!). But I’ve failed to be active in that group because, well, I rarely get on Facebook. (But it’s a good place holder for interacting with one another!)
So the Kindred Spirit Club won’t change.
It will always be free and it will always be the way I communicate promotional content to you (sale alerts, product line sneak peeks, etc.).
My Patreon page will be different in a few ways:
- There will be a small monthly fee to join. Because of this, the club will feel more intimate, and I’m really excited about all that comes along with a smaller, more personal space! More on that another time.
- I won’t be sharing sale info on Patreon. I might share some behind the scenes of creating a new product line, or do a product giveaway just for Patreon supporters, but it will not be the place where I remind you that you have two hours before the sale ends.
- If the Kindred Spirit Club is The Business, think of my Patreon page as The Artist. More raw, more real, and more personal.
- Here, there will be a space for kindred spirits to interact with one another. While no one will have the ability to share a “post” besides me, I plan on creating ways for you to be able to engage with other kindred spirits (I’m thinking book recommendations, and a whole lot of other things!)
What do you think? I can’t wait to share more with you soon!
