Hi. I’m Patty.

Hi there! I’m Patty. I’m a writer, maker and creative entrepreneur.
My mission is to experiment and find fun, new, ways to live a beautiful, authentic life and to share what I’ve learned with others.
I do this by…
Playing with imagination and serving as my own test subject, then sharing my experience with like-minded men and women.
Working with transformational business leaders through Soul Design to get their heart-message out of their heads and into the world.
Staying grounded by practicing and developing homespun skills like sewing, cooking, and growing things.
Creating resources for spiritual-minded people to build beautiful lives and businesses.
Read the blog for tutorials, tricks and inspiration. Curious about our experiment in teeny-living? Then read more about #vanlife!
Are you a business owner? I also work with indie retail and creative business owners to build beautiful social media platforms, websites and email marketing programs.
