Disco hour at HRT headquarters!! It’s been a busy and fun season over here and it’s hard to believe that we will be wrapping our year up soon!

For the last 3 years I’ve taken the month of December off to recharge, relax and enjoy the holiday season. It’s by far the best thing I’ve done since starting my business.

Before we head out this year we’ve got some exciting projects in the works:

🥗 A meal planning app - my first ever app development project. So fun!
🤝 A refreshed website for a Mediation non profit on the east coast
🌀a refreshed brand and website for a pediatric occupational therapist in Denver

Ten years ago, I remember thinking:

Why can’t I just be happy I have a good job?

Nothing was terribly wrong. I had a career, a steady paycheck, benefits—all the things I thought I was supposed to want.

And yet, I couldn’t stop wondering if there was another way to work.

Lately, I’ve been hearing versions of that same question everywhere.

People are burned out. Rethinking careers they’ve spent years building. Starting side hustles. Consulting. Creating. Wondering what else they could do with everything they’ve learned so far.

At the same time, there have arguably never been more ways to make a living.

Which makes me wonder if the “millennial career crisis” isn’t just about burnout.

Maybe we’re also realizing that the definition of a career we grew up with no longer fits the world we’re working in.

And maybe questioning what comes next isn’t such a bad thing.

I wrote about all of this—and why these conversations are part of the reason I started The Erin Rose Edit—in my latest.

We recently completed a redesign of OT + Feeding Therapy a pediatric occupational therapy practice located in the Denver area.

We focused on simplifying the navigation for 2 distinct audiences: parents & providers. Overall we wanted to keep the design inviting, simple and easy to navigate for parents who may be overwhelmed trying to find someone who can help with their child’s challenges.

A little pinch-me moment ✨ I’m featured on Jacki Carr | Community Designer Jacki Carr’s Substack, Business Unusual, talking about entrepreneurship, how I define success, and building a business that supports the life you actually want to live.

Jacki has been in my orbit for 10+ years in the most supportive ways, so this one feels extra special 🫶

We’ve heard that less = more, of downsizing but what about rightsizing?

My latest thoughts and contemplations on defining enough while staying open to more.

AI versus a real life human designer.

I am hosting my fall candle workshop for my side passion Soulmade Goods next week and I wanted to use this as an opportunity to showcase AI versus a real human designer.

AI designs are everywhere nowadays and they all look the same. And you know what that can mean for your business:

❌ it diminishes your brand
❌ you look like everyone else
❌ people scroll past it because they are seeing it everywhere
❌ doesn’t allow for nuance of fonts, colors and images that make your brand yours

A little end-of-year business update ✨

We’re officially booking the last few Hello Rising Tide projects of 2026 before I close up shop for the month of December.

Taking December off has become one of those boundaries I’m really grateful I built into this business — a chance to step away, slow down, enjoy the holidays and come back in January actually excited about what’s ahead.

But first… we’ve still got a few good projects left in us. 😉

If a new brand or website has been sitting on your 2026 to-do list, this is your sign to get it moving. I have a handful of spots available for projects kicking off this fall, and then that’s a wrap on 2026.

Branding, websites + thoughtful creative work for businesses ready for what’s next.

Let’s make something good before I turn on my OOO. ✌️

A new brand has taken root 🌿

Meet Oakmoon Vitality—a personalized wellness practice bringing together Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis, Ayurveda, nutrition, and supportive lifestyle practices to help clients better understand their bodies and restore balance.

For the brand and website, we wanted to create something that felt grounded, intuitive and deeply connected to the natural world—while still communicating the insight and precision behind Kacey’s work.

The result is a warm, layered digital home where modern data meets ancient wisdom.

Not saying I have it all figured out but there are definitely some things I’ve learned along the way. You can read the full article on my Substack (link in bio).

Here are some highlights:
👏🏼 Relationships matter
👏🏼 You don’t have to graduate from the business you built
👏🏼 Good work compounds

Check out my Substack where I share honest advice, unpopular opinions, and real insight on building a business. What I’ve learned from 8+ years building a design studio—shared for women starting, growing, or rethinking their own path.

Over the past year, I’ve had the opportunity to partner with some incredible mission-driven organizations to create websites that don’t just look better — they make it easier for people to understand the work, find the right resources, get involved and support the mission.

A few recent nonprofit projects:

✨ ARK | Advancement in Resilience & Knowledge — creating a clearer, more powerful digital home for an organization helping youth and young adults build the capacity to thrive.

🏠 Chaffee Housing Authority — turning a LOT of information, programs and resources into a website that makes it easier for our local community to find the housing support they need.

🎨 Ruth’s Table — bringing more energy, creativity and connection to the digital presence of a San Francisco nonprofit creating accessible arts experiences for older adults and adults with disabilities.

Different organizations. Different audiences. Different goals.

But the same challenge: How do we take meaningful, complex work and make it easy for someone to understand and engage with online?

That’s one of my favorite problems to solve.

If your nonprofit is heading into 2027 planning and a new website is on the list, now is a great time to start the conversation. I’d love to help you build something that works as hard for your mission as you do. 🤍
