Designing with Purpose: Prepping Ahead for May & June Sales

Let's talk about what to design for in May—and why the time to start is now! In this episode, we're walking through the ideal 8–10 week window for researching and designing seasonal products for Etsy and Print-on-Demand. I'll highlight upcoming events you may want to create for, like Memorial Day and Juneteenth, and (just as importantly) how to approach them with thoughtfulness and respect.

You'll hear my take on planning ahead the smart way, staying aligned with your brand values, and making sure your designs are both timely and meaningful. Whether you're batch-creating or just trying to stay one step ahead, this episode will help you build a design calendar that actually works.

Perfect for busy moms, creative entrepreneurs, and anyone who wants to grow their shop with intention—not just quick trends.
