103. FROM CREATIVE TO CREATIVE BUSINESS OWNER

There's an invisible line that many creative entrepreneurs struggle to cross, from seeing yourself as a creative person who happens to sell their offerings, to stepping fully into being a creative business owner. It sounds like a small difference, but it changes absolutely everything about how you operate. This final episode of our summer series is about making that shift and owning your identity as a professional creative business owner. Your creativity doesn't diminish, it becomes your unique business advantage when treated with the professional respect it deserves.   Key Moments: [02:01] The invisible line: creative person vs. creative business owner [04:21] Why "humility" about your work actually holds everyone back [06:45] Simple systems that signal professional seriousness [08:35] You're not becoming a business owner, you already are one!   Notable Quotes: "When you show up as a confident business owner, you give your clients permission to see you that way too. They trust you more, they value your input more, they're happier to pay your prices, and they refer you to others with confidence." "You're not just creative. You're a creative business owner. Own it, because the world needs what you have to offer."   Resources Mentioned: Read: This Week's   Full Journal Post Pinterest experiment: Follow Along with My Pinterest Experiment Link: The Base Notes Waitlist Subscribe to our Weekly newsletter Website: www.philippacraddock.com Email: [email protected]   Share Your Insights: What resonated most with you about stepping into your identity as a creative business owner?
