Cup of Gratitude with Anne

Anne was born and raised right smack dab in the middle of New York City by artist parents, it took her a long time to find her path in life and in my career. She tried all the things (yes, ALL THE THINGS) from art school to modeling/acting, to waitressing in jazz clubs and dancing on top of bars, to creating handmade photo albums, you name it. If it was creative & unconventional, she tried it. Then she found her art in jewelry. "It opened me up to myself. And it started me on a journey of self-discovery." Through major life changes (motherhood, moving to Maine, divorce to name a few) she found more joy. And self-acceptance. Her growth was accelerated by working with a coach. Watching and experiencing her own transformation inspired her to become a coach and to help others get more of the things they really want. Anne's experience as a creative business owner, growing my jewelry business over the last 15 years with marketing, wholesale, opening a brick and mortar ALL while navigating my ADHD creative brain, AND being naturally surrounded by artists her whole life has led her to her more specific work with creative business owners, many of whom also have ADHD.

Cup of Gratitude with Liz

Liz took her first pottery class her sophomore year as a way to have some hands-on art time during my Interior Design degree. Little did she know the impact this one class would have on her life. Pottery has since evolved into a way she shares her story with you. It has opened new doors for her to take care of her family and her health and grow her artisty. She uses her pottery as a way to encourage you to practice gratitude as a way to bring more joy into your everyday. Beautiful things take time. Liz handcrafts each piece with care in her home studio in Merrimack, NH. She is fueled by her passion for the perfect cup of coffee in the morning and quality time with her husband and three cats. You can keep up to date with the latest studio happenings on Instagram or her website.
