SheSays Brighton: Get Over It!

The second SheSays Brighton event is already sold out!

One of the speakers (Rachel Blackman) at the first event spoke about getting through difficult times and how important that was to her growth and focus. Emily Toop told us to find a space in which we can be pathetic, and have an outlet for our fears and worries. I think it's important for all of us go-getters to allow ourselves pathetic moments, because we are not Superpeople, we are humans. Accepting our weaknesses and moving through them actually makes us function better. I spoke to Sally Turner at the ideas wall about it resonating with both of us and now it's become the theme of the next talk.

We've all had our ups and downs figuring out the best way through life and rather than dreading the lows I'm looking forward to hearing from some more brilliant women about how the challenges that nearly destroy us usually end up teaching us the most.

I was again commissioned to create a flier, this time opting for my ink/markers style. I'm slowly moving completely over to ink and brush, but I will always hold markers dear to my heart!
