Hey Reader, How would your business and life change if you started charging $10k for your website projects!? No, seriously, take a moment to *really* think about it. -Would you be able to retire your spouse from a job that they don't love? -Would you be able to spend more time with your kids, away from your computer with fewer projects? - Would you be able to fly your family out to that Hawaii vacation you’ve been wanting to? It’s possible, and I’m here to show you how. TL;DR: I am teaching a LIVE workshop on Thursday, Sep 19 on how to profitably scale your design business with $10k websites, make sure to sign up here! Right now, you might be giving yourself 1,000 reasons why you can’t charge $10K for your projects: "No one in my audience would ever pay $10K!" "My design skills aren’t good enough to charge $10k." "I am not experienced / ready enough to charge $10k yet" “Oh! The economy feels rickety, clients won't be able to afford higher prices.” "I need a fancier website and better coding skills before I can charge that much." And many many more... The MOST important factor in landing high-end clients isn’t your skill set – it’s your mindset. And I have a little story of you to illustrate that. Frogs can teach us great lessons 🐸 A group of frogs were traveling through the woods, when two of them fell into a deep pit. The other frogs crowded around the pit and, seeing how deep it was, told the two frogs there was no hope of escape. The two frogs decided to ignore what the others were saying and they continued to try and jump out of the pit. But eventually, one of the frogs took heed to what the others were saying and he gave up, falling down to his death. But the second frog? He kept jumping, even harder, and eventually made it out. Do you know why? Because he was deaf. He couldn’t hear the negative voices around him, so he kept trying and made it out of the pit. 😊 There may be several reasons for why you believe charging $10K isn’t possible for you. The economy, self-doubt, comparisons to others – it’s easy to let those voices hold you back. But here’s the thing: while some designers are lowering their prices, there are other designers just like you who are attracting dream clients, charging high-end prices, and building the design business they once only imagined. Take Coline, for example. She is a french designer who joined the HEWD program, and within two weeks, booked a project for 9,500€. What you believe is a choice, Reader. What’s possible for you is determined by what you allow yourself to believe. I don’t want you to leave money on the table, undercharge, and feel unprofitable – I’ve been there, and it’s not fun. So, let's flip the question for a bit - “What is 1 reason why YOU ARE ready to charge $10k for your projects?” Now if you can answer that question - amazing!! You are ready to raise your prices and I'll show you exactly how to do it in my upcoming workshop. Click here to sign up for the workshop on Sep 19, Thursday.

Want to show up differently in your design studio in 2026? Start with your mindset. As I reflected on 2025, I had a few honest lessons that I wanted to share with design studio owners. And what started as one email, is now a series of emails coming your way this week. Here's email #2. Hey Reader, As I said in email #1, following my intuition at the start of 2025, I didn’t make a big plan. No big revenue goals. No fancy strategies. No color-coded calendar. I chose less structure, more space....
Happiest New Year to you my friend. As I reflected on 2025, I had a few honest lessons that I wanted to share with design studio owners. And what started as one email, is now a series of emails i'll be sending this week ;) Keep your eyes peeled. Here's email #1. At the start of 2025, I felt a kind of lightness in me that I hadn't felt in a while. 2024 had been my biggest year in business yet. And, I had just crossed $1M in lifetime sales as a Solopreneur—a milestone I quietly celebrated with...
