All my favorite things
IN LIFE & BUSINESS
People often ask which courses I’ve taken, which tools & software I use, and which microphone or camera I use to record course lessons or blog posts. I firmly believe in sharing details like that, so now instead of asking me you can check it all out for yourself!

Creative Law Shop*: favorite legal templates & contracts
⭐️ WHAT WE THINK
Their “templates were not only drafted by a contract attorney, but have been refined by professionals in each respective industry,” making sure they cover the types of details that only seasoned professionals in that industry know to have covered.

Booked Out Designer*, by Elizabeth McCravy
⭐️ What We Think
Elizabeth McCravy is a successful Showit web designer with a website template shop and an awesome podcast who pours her heart & soul into this course. BUT it’s not platform-specific and it doesn’t teach web design at all; in fact, it doesn’t teach design at all. This course is all about the processes of running an online business and learning how to book out your client calendar. The student community is invaluable, the coaching with both Elizabeth & Becky is a fantastic combination of how-to + mindset, and the course material helped my business scale –reaching my first $10k month. Worth every penny and enrollment is always open!

Standout Squarespace*, by Rache of SquareStylist
⭐️ What We Think
If you’ve taken other Squarespace courses and feel pretty comfortable on the platform BUT you want to dive deeper, learning how to write your own custom code solutions for even more creative designs that are still client-friendly, –you’re ready for Standout Squarespace by Rache of SquareStylist. It’s one of the most comprehensive courses I’ve ever taken so it’s a big time commitment (it will take a few months to get through it all, or at least a month if you take time off to do the course full-time), ––but it’s worth every penny. Rache is an amazing teacher with such a creative mind!

Copywriting for Creatives*, by Ashlyn Carter
⭐️ What We Think
Writing the copy (text) for your business happens literally everywhere: social media captions, emails sent to your clients AND your subscribers, sales pages on your website, –and more. You write copy for your website all the time, –and if you were to hire a professional copywriter to write ALL of your copy for all things, this would be an outrageous business expense. When I realized this myself, –I turned to Ashlyn in CfC. This course has helped my business relate to thousands each month, and bring in awesome clients that relate to me & my words. Ashlyn is a copywriting guru!
