Happy Announcements - Yeehaw!

Hello friends! I wanted to share some recent happy announcements with you guys! Things are moving quickly over here but I want to stop, pause, and throw out some celebratory high fives with you, because without you, none of this would happening! Go team! 

Recently, The Kelly Rae Roberts Collection with Demdaco was ranked #1 in the “sentiment” category in GiftBeat, and we were also given a “thumbs up” on the trending report. GiftBeat is an industry magazine that gathers data on how products are selling nationwide. To be ranked (esp #1!) in their polls is awesome news – thank you, retailers and buyers! Also, what an honor it is to be ranked alongside Willow Tree! 
Studio Open House! 
Soul Shine Studio - my new shared studio space with Flora, Pixie, and Lynx - will be celebrating its grand opening with an all day open house on Friday, 7/5 from 11ish - 6ish. We'll have wine and snacks and would love to have you stop by and say hello! More details to come but wanted to start getting the word out! 1306 NW Hoyt St #412, Portland OR!


Totally honored to have my art on the cover of New Connexion - Pacific NW's Journal of Conscious Living. Let It Go is one of my favorite pieces (available here as a signed/matted print and also available here as a substantial/large wooden wall art piece (the cage is 3D!). Thank you, New Connexion! You can read the entire issue here (some seriously great articles in there). 



We've made an important change to the way you guys can comment on blog posts! You can still comment the old way but now you also have the option of commenting using your FB login. Above is what it looks like. The nice thing about this feature is that you guys can find one another's FB pages (you can comment from your biz page or your regular/personal page), reply to one another, etc etc just as you would in a FB comment thread. I sort of love it. 


Beth Nicholls and I are thrilled to have our second article published in the amazing Where Women Create BUSINESS , summer issue out now (gorgeous cover featuring Anahata, no?). Our article is all about choosing your people, your WHO, before ever creating a product or service. We are in love with this concept and we're sure you'll find it a liberating way in which to approach business. 
In our first column, we explored the importance of unearthing and defining the “WHY” of your business — its unique soul mission.  The next step is defining your “WHO.” We realize that this is anon-traditional approach, as most businesses would first define their “WHAT” (their products or services) and then identify the target audience for those products and services. We’re suggesting another way — a more soulful way — that will create an incredible sense of freedom and lead to more innovative, purpose-driven products and services in the long run, which of course means more profit that you can be proud of.

You can purchase this magazine in bookstores nationwide or right here!
Thank you Where Women Create BUSINESS! Beth and I are honored to be a part of it!

Still excited about teaching/speaking/leading at the upcoming Soul Sisters retreat right here in Oregon. All the details are here! 
Whew! That's the Happy Announcement Roundup. Thank you, endlessly, for supporting me. I so SEE you, appreciate you, and am grateful for you.
