Hey, friend!
I’m Lindsey Irwin – business coach, candle maker, marketing prof, farmer, creative + mama-preneur.
Welcome to the MAKE blog! I promise to weave it all together through storytelling – let’s talk shop. Come, explore the marvellous world of entrepreneurship with me.
Come on in, be welcome + get cozy.
Me? An entrepreneur?
Makers can make money too.
Let’s ‘make’ it happen.
Alright here’s my disclaimer – Yes, I’m a successful maker but I was coaching entrepreneurs for nearly a decade before I started making candles and I have a solid marketing background working with Profit 500 startups and teaching business courses in various post secondary environments. I love supporting entrepreneurs as much as I love being one, so now I’m niching down to help other makers (like me) build brands that resonate, experience financial freedom from the 9-5 world, and really just design a life they love.
WELCOME.
I’m so happy you’re here.
I invite you to consider this blog a warm place to visit anytime you could use some good vibes – join me as I share the adventurous story of launching a Christmas Tree Farm, hear about the up and downs (and how’s) of candle making, and of course, I love to help entrepreneurs discover their creativity, and reach success. So, let’s cozy up and stop scrolling aimlessly on social media. I hope you subscribe to slow down with me, and visit once in a while. I hope you’ll read something that inspires you to create or grow your maker business, ignites a creative spark for you, or just allows you to sit still long enough to enjoy that cup of coffee.
Read. Linger. Rest. Learn.
You feel that calm? That’s the point, friends.
