Back in 2018 my friend Kim Panella and I decided to take the month of February to love on our friends, mentors, co-workers and people starting in the field, also taking a week to do some self-love. This is not limited to Designers only but any Creative.
WEEK 1 is ENERGIZE
Take someone to coffee, bring someone an espresso, soda, or red bull.
Post an energizing quote and tag a friend who could use some energizing (remember to use the #loveondesigners tag)
Then snap a photo and use the hashtag #loveondesigners when you post it and tag me @creativesignite when you post.
Week 2 is ENCOURAGE
Create a post with an encouraging phrase or video on social media specifically to someone who needs a lift. Tag them and me. Remember to use the hashtag #loveondesigners
Direct message someone and let them know you have seen their work and know how much time and energy they have been putting into it and it isn’t going unnoticed.
Week 3 is RECHARGE
This is a week about you. Maybe you are like me and I am so far down on my to-do list I never prioritize myself and sometimes even my own business. This week I am hoping you will commit some time to do some self-care and restorative work on you and giving you what you need this week. Shoot a picture and use the hashtag #loveondesigners this week and let us know how you are taking care of yourself this week.
Week 4 is CONNECT
This week I want you to reach out to someone you don’t know and tell them how their work / life has inspired you.
I hope you will join us as we lift up the creative community this month and spread the love.
