We are so very happy to introduce you to @michherscu today! ✨ Managing money as a small business can be OMG... Overwhelming, confusing and full of fear. When Michelle joined us last year as a fractional CFO, she soothed a lot of that. Thank you Michelle!

Hello BIPOC Fireflies :) What are you craving this winter? We are longing for a break from the hustle and bustle, a chance to slow down and tune in to our creativity. We have a couple of spots left in our full-day BIPOC City Sanctuary, to do just this. 🤎 fireflycreativewriting.com/city-sanctuary…

The Writer's Book Club is open! We're so excited for this new community-shape. Come for playfulness, joy, and to stoke our creative fires through the long winter. Sliding scale, all are welcome. 🌱 fireflycreativewriting.com/writers-book-c…


As we move into winter our team are turning the lights down and tucking in for a wee hibernation. 🐻 During this time there will be no workshops, morning coffee sessions, meetings or emails. We'll be back January 2nd and we look forward to reconnecting with you then. 🤍
