Hey Bootstrapper, Each week, I deliver a fresh, feminist-inspired, creative marketing email to your inbox...let's dive in! Prefer to listen to this podcast style? You're in luck! Check it out here!

Hey Bootstrapper, Each week, I deliver a fresh, feminist-inspired, creative marketing email to your inbox...let's dive in! Prefer to listen to this podcast style? You're in luck! Check it out here! Last week, I read *yet another* email about a business owner who lost their job, started a business, and immediately was supporting their family – making it sound effortless and quick.

Hey Bootstrapper, Each week, I deliver a fresh, feminist-inspired, creative marketing email to your inbox...let's dive in! As you know, I've been knee-deep in my own brand refresh, and let me tell you – seeing the invoices for my copywriting glow-up and brand photography definitely had me second-guessing all the investments I've made.

Hey Bootstrapper, Each week, I deliver a fresh, feminist-inspired, creative marketing email to your inbox...let's dive in! Writing these weekly emails is bringing me so much *JOY* right now during these wild times. I don't know about you, but I've just not been feeling as inspired to show up on social media and create content for Instagram as I once was.

Hey Bootstrapper, Each week (yes, we're going weekly!), I deliver a fresh, feminist-inspired, creative marketing email to your inbox...let's dive in! In my last email, I shared that I'm doing a bit of a brand refresh for Bootstrapped Woman. But you know what I realized this week?! I needed to give myself permission not to get everything done in an unrealistic amount of time. Can you believe that I actually thought I could do a complete website update, with a copy glow-up, SEO research, brand...
