I just spent the last week at a conference for women entrepreneurs in creative fields called Altitude Summit. Oh man, what a huge impact it can make on you to spend time with “your people”. I’ve never been around so many other people that “get” my life in nearly every aspect of it. As an entrepreneur, as a mother, as an artist, as a business nerd, as a spouse, as a workaholic, as a dreamer, as a creator.

Before going to the conference, I didn’t realize how much I needed to be around people like that. It’s easy to go about your life feeling alone a lot of the time. Especially because having creative skills somehow isolates you from the rest of the population (a topic I plan on writing more about). It’s one of the reasons I started this community, to help connect people with “their people”. I mean, raise your hand if you still get weird looks when talking about “Procreate” with the general public. With people that “get it” we feel less alone. And together we are stronger. Together we feel home.
