Meaningful Creations - Edition 14

EDITION 14 / 2024 Well hello again Reader! I hope you are having a great week. You're looking GREAT! 😘 Before I get into this week's ramblings 🤪 can I ask a favor? If you know anyone who would enjoy my newsletter, would you just hit 'Forward' and share it with them? It's a little thing, but I would really appreciate it. I was recording a video this week briefly talking about what my main considerations or objectives were when I started Created by Wayne. Obviously my first objective was to...

Meaningful Creations - Edition 13

EDITION 13 / 2024 Happy Friday Reader! It has been a very grey (and actually very chilly) week here in the UK, but it does mean I've had a brilliant excuse to put some good music on, get cozy, light a candle and listen to the rain. So it's not ALL bad. 🤣 There is a phrase I've heard thrown around a lot in the past, that really came to mind this week. I've always thought it was a very sensible saying, but I think this week I realized why it is deceptively powerful. You see the beginning of...

Meaningful Creations - Edition 12

EDITION 12 / 2024 Well howdy Reader! It's good to see you (as always). I read a quote a while ago, and I immediately knew I wanted to share it with you. Unfortunately I cannot find who it is originally from, but the quote was this: This really hit home for me, in terms of both my personal life, and my business. I think I spent so long trying to figure out the 'right' answer to things that I almost missed the most exciting possibility of all: that I could (and should) keep creating my life and...

Meaningful Creations - Edition 11

EDITION 11 / 2024 Hey there Reader , and Happy (nearly) Weekend! 🤣 How has your week been? I hope you have had a good 'un. Fortunately this week has been a productive week for me, and I've managed to get through quite a lot of my 'to-do' list. And I've been doing a lot of planning. It's funny, I realised that I am always hesitant to plan too far ahead, cos it feels like then if the plans don't happen, or are delayed, that I've somehow failed. I think that's why I love the reframing that my...

Meaningful Creations - Edition 10

EDITION 10 / 2024 Well hello Reader ! Apologies for my newsletter and video being a little late this week, but it's been a bit of a weird week tbh. 😁 I am LOVING the longer days and the brighter mornings...but this week has been a struggle. For some reason I've had one of those weeks where I had a huge list of things I wanted to do, but also just felt like hiding away! Don't get me wrong, it's not cos I was avoiding difficult things, or things I didn't want to do. It was things I WANTED to do...

Meaningful Creations - Edition 09

EDITION 09 / 2024 Hey there Reader ! This week there was some very interesting news from Canva: Affinity (who create a brilliant suite of professional design tools), have joined the Canva family! Now personally I think this is great - and they are both companies that I respect for their ethos and culture. They have always put their communities first, and have been really transparent about fair pricing and giving back. These are things that align with my values, and I want to support companies...

Meaningful Creations - Edition 08

EDITION 08 / 2024 Hi Reader! 😁 First of all, I just wanted to say Thank You! I know you've had a lot more emails than normal from me over the last couple of weeks, and I really appreciate you being here. Also a HUGE thank you to the AMAZING people who have joined CanvaOS - I am so thrilled to see how much it is already helping! 🖤 Promoting my products and courses is always a strange one for me - because I obviously don't want to bombard you with sales emails, but it's what allows me to keep...

Meaningful Creations - Edition 07

EDITION 07 / 2024 Well hello there! 😁 I don't know about you Reader, but I often find that while I love the idea of creating with complete spontaneity, that can very quickly feel a little overwhelming to me. For example when I'm designing a brand identity, I have a workflow I have honed over the years that means I can explore and experiment, but still make sure I deliver all the necessary elements for a beautiful brand! “ I find that a little structure actually allows me to be a lot more...

Meaningful Creations - Edition 06

EDITION 06 / 2024 Hello again Reader! Everyone I know is guilty of "not taking their own advice" at some point in their lives. (Some of us at NUMEROUS points. 🤣) But the truth is, it is much harder to have perspective on something when its close to you...and when it is tied to your own emotions. Over the last couple of weeks I have received a few really lovely message from people about my YouTube tutorials and email newsletters. And while it's always nice to get compliments, what they...

Meaningful Creations - Edition 05

EDITION 05 / 2024 Well hi there Reader! I have always loved words. Reading was a HUGE refuge for me as a kid, and I've always loved poetry and languages...and the beauty and power that a few simple words can possess. Words alone can spark a war or save lives. I do also love that language is a constantly evolving thing. Every day the way we use language changes to better suit who we are and where we are today. (Althought there are still some common language 'quirks' that drive me up the wall!)...
