Design Intensive
Liberate your to-do list and get things done for you
Some days just feels a bit messy. We are all over everything and nothing – at the same time.
We are doing our best to get things done but some tasks seem to forever float from one to do list to the other. If any of these are slightly leaning towards “design things” for you, a design intensive may be the answer.
I am here to turn your brilliant ideas into a steady, focused glow by taking care of all those graphic design tasks that have been waiting on your list. Together, we’ll make your expertise, creations, and visual expression sparkle bright and feeling right.
Simply put,
Get a grip of all design things that keep floating from one to do list to the other.
On a deeper level,
Allow yourself a sense of clarity and accomplishment.
You're an author and...
- you started on a book cover but sense that something is missing
- the pages of the book interior just doesn’t flow but you don’t now why
- all the specifics of cover templates gives you a headache
- you do not want to google one more thing that has to do with layouts and book typography and long for the answers.
We can also go deeper
A beautiful reading experience needs a structured foundation. And a manuscript needs good structure and formatting to meet those needs.
With a Design Intensive you can get clarity on how.
You're a maker or educator and...
- Packaging and sending off your unique products lack that extra flare, but you never get around to creating the stickers, hang tags, or boxes that would make them shine.
- Your workshop and course hand-outs falls flat (and that’s not who you are at all), and you wish it had some harmony, structure and the same fire as your classes.
- Even though you have a visual identity or brand guide, it feels nearly impossible to use it in your social media posts, marketing or informational materials.
- You do not want to google one more thing that has to do with social media, fonts, colour palettes, photo sourcing, or anything design-related. You just long for answers.
If we go deeper
You feel that your business’ visual expression is out of date and don’t enjoy using it any more.
During a Design Intensive we find a way to make a refresh and bring back the sparkle.
You're a creatix or a multipassionate and..
- You have an incredible list of ideas but can’t seem to get moving with any of them.
- The weekly, monthly or seasonal information you create swallow days and figure out one more template is still on your punch list.
- You keep getting stuck on providing your clients with clear and concise information on your service, process, and pricing.
- Falling down another rabbit hole of best practises, social media carousels, and typography beauty is not on your wish list; answers are.
We can go deeper
You feel that you only show parts of yourself, and your graphic profile is not making you justice.
On a Design Intensive we light up the dark to find what needs to glow. And create it.

Indecisive?
Not sure where to start or what to choose? That’s perfectly normal.
We will untangle what is going on in your world during our initial call. We identify the focus and priorities. And make it fit your budget.
Take a breath, make things happen.
On a Design Intensive all focus is on what you need and want. Or maybe on what you don’t know?
We combine our expertise; you bring what you feel needs attention in your world, and I bring my designer approach and skills, and we make things happen and get done.
The day is fully tailored for your needs on refreshing, refining, and realigning the design side of things.
Don’t fret and no worries.
Before your Design Intensive we’ll meet for an initial chat to go over your to-do list or design things. We decide what to focus on and what your day’s main priority will be.
Don’t fret about not knowing where to start or exactly what to ask for – I will listen, discern and guide you on a path forward so your needs are at the center.
We probably both need to do some homework or preparations so we can make the most of our time. And no worries, I will explain of what I need from you.
So, who is it for?
A Design Intensive is created to gently make space to vocalise your thoughts, take a deep breath, and add some harmony and beauty to both your inner world and your visual expressions.
My best guess is that you are an author, maker, educator, creatrix, and or multipassionate.
You are based in purpose more than profit and centre on empowering instead of restraining – when it comes to yourself and others.
Sounds like you?
When it comes to the graphic design, the visual part of your business, you know what turns into hurdles in your day to day work.
We can be very practical and create a wish list of all the design things that needs to get done. Or we can dive into your visual expression and see what dims your light and is in need of a refresh.
When we struggle to tell our story so it matches how we feel inside – it can feel like we have to settle for not fully expressing ourselves.
The process
Get your focused glow
Glow up call
We meet for a chat to run through your to-do list or design thoughts and ideas.
There is no need to for you to worry about creating the ultimate list, have sorted out your thoughts or show up “in control” at the call.
I promise, there will be ample time to talk things through.
Wish list creation
We decide what to focus on and what our main priority will be.
And no – the wish list doesn’t need to be things to tick off.
It can be help for a direction, a detangling of thoughts or a lesson in typography.
Book your day & pay
After our call you will be sent a link to book your Glow up design day and pay your deposit to secure your time.
Homework
After booking, you’ll receive a guide covering what you’ll need to do, as well as any additional information needed to get your wishlist done and dusted.
Creation
It’s time to get things done! No Glow up immersive looks the same but there will be check in times or chat times depending on your wishlist. Create space in your calender to make sure that you are available for check-ins and feedback.
Handover & delivery
If deliverables are on your wishlist, they will arrive at the decided time. Review, tweak or approve.
And we are done.
Glow up sprinkles all over.
Aftercare
I don’t use a magic cloak and disappear, so if you feel lost or unsure I will be here.
Don’t dim your light.
When we struggle to tell our story so it matches how we feel inside – it can feel like we have to settle for not fully expressing ourselves. When this happens to our professional selves, it puts limits on the ways we feel we can evolve and expand.
Being in business has enough “rules” to make us hesitant to fully tell the world around us who we are and what we do. Figuring everything out on our own can extinguish all our light.
As an independent author, educator, maker, or creatrix, you might also have noticed that you all of a sudden need to put on a lot more hats than you initially thought or ever wished for. As if shining in your expertise wasn’t work enough, you now find yourself venturing into less illumined areas of being in business.

I was captivated by the strength and fragility of her images and the unique way of portraying flowers.
