Jokes.... jokes 😂 mostly... LOL

The real version is there is a lot of planning ahead, juggling schedules, being really intentional with my time, working after bedtime and help from my husband and family.

We’re doing itttt though! 💪

So what does life reallyyyy look like right now in this new season? Swipe for a look at five of my workdays from the last month, timestamps and all! 👀

Real talk, running my business with a 7-month old and part-time childcare has definitely required a lot of flexibility. Some days I’m crushing it, and other days something that used to take me an hour ends up taking three because I’m running on fumes from nighttime feedings. I’ve told Bennett that while I love him so much, I’d prefer to see him a little less in the middle of the night... but we’re just not there yet. 🍼

One thing that has definitely been helpful though, is tracking my workdays. It’s allowed me to see how our days actually go (vs how I think they’ll go) and get a better sense of how much time I really have to dedicate to work right. Which has been so helpful in mapping out my schedule and adjusting the amount of projects I take on.

The truth is, I’m still figuring it out but I’m doing my best to lean into this season and enjoy the journey. It’s not perfect, but I’m also super proud of myself for showing up every day and finding a way to make it all work. It’s a lot different than how I’ve run my business the last decade… but I’m doing it. 🥳💪

You guys… I have BIG news! 🥹🎉Last night I was named one of this year’s 40 Under 40 by !

Truly, I cannot tell you what it means to receive this award and be featured alongside so many incredible leaders, business owners, and people making our community better. It is such an honor to be recognized and it was such a fun evening to celebrate!

When I started my first business in my studio apartment in NYC, I had no idea where it would go… Could I make it happen?! I didn’t know but I decided I had to take a chance. Now, over a decade later and back in the PNW, my business has grown into something I’m so proud of. Helping other small business owners bring their brands to life and supporting them as they follow their dreams is what I love most. Every logo designed, every website launched, and every new social media follower… their wins are the best part of my work!

I also want to give a big thank you to my family who came to support me last night, as well as everyone who has supported me (near and far) along this journey. I appreciate you all more than you know. 💗

You can see the feature in this month’s magazine and I linked the digital version at the link in my bio.

When people ask what types of designs we do at Going Bold Studio, I always say a little bit of everything!✨

From bold and colorful to refined and elevated, we can make it happen! Swipe to get a peek at the different types of designs we’ve created for our custom Squarespace websites. 👀

🚨 Scam alert! Someone is contacting past clients I’ve worked with and soliciting website audits. File this under things I didn’t think I’d be dealing with this week… yikes.

Super thankful one of my clients reached out to let me know, so I wanted to share since I don’t know how many people they’ve contacted.

Here’s what I know: the scammer created a fake Gmail account that, at first glance, looks like it’s coming from my business. Their display name is “Going Bold Studio,” and the actual email is [email protected]. For reference, my only legitimate emails are [email protected] and [email protected].

From the emails I’ve seen, they’re reaching out to past website clients offering “audits to keep things up-to-date with Squarespace,” and if you say you’re interested, they send a proposal through Upwork. The Upwork profile name being used is Timileyin Babarinde, which is obviously not me and NOT affiliated with my business. When pushed on why the name is different, they’ve claimed my team recently expanded.

What’s extra frustrating is that I do offer website audits — just not the ones they’re pitching. I was even planning on running a Black Friday/Cyber Monday promo, but given the situation, I’m skipping it. Clearly the scammer is playing off that timing and has actually done some research into my business 😔. If you do need a real audit, I can help with those, and info is on my website — but I am absolutely not connected to this scammer.

To wrap things up, I’ve reported the email to Gmail, reported the scam to the FTC, and reported the Upwork profile. But honestly, I’m not confident any of those will move quickly. So if you’re contacted by this fake account, please know it is NOT me or anyone at Going Bold Studio. Don’t reply, and per Gmail’s guidance, click the three dots and report it as phishing.

Hopefully this gets resolved soon, and I hope sharing this prevents any issues for my amazing clients. As always, thanks for your support 💗
