My guest today is Ariel Gonzalez. She is a Latinx artist based in Texas who works with sustainably sourced materials and just opened her new online storefront Thistle & Lore where she she sells cards, notebooks, and stickers. While she loves being creative offline, social media is a new medium and she’s ready to learn all the things so she can better promote her new store — and more specifically, her spooky collections featuring sheet ghosts and poisonous plants on handmade paper.
If you’d like to support the show (yay!) please help us get the word out by sharing this episode with a friend who might enjoy it. And don't forget to subscribe, rate & review too!

PROUD AFFILIATE OF DESCRIPT: Something I hear a lot from creative entrepreneurs is "I don't have time to learn how to edit Reels and TikToks and all this video stuff now!" I hear you, and... what if editing a video was as easy as editing a text document? Spoiler alert: it is with AI-assisted editing... And it's absolutely mind-blowing. Check out Descript. (I just became an affiliate, but started using it a few years ago and it saves me 8-10 hours/week of editing time, so trust I am OBSESSED).
