Dream Studio workshops are small, intimate gatherings where we cultivate creativity.
I share about my personal creative journey and how it evolved over time.
I lead exercises that spark creativity and quiet the inner critic. Together we brainstorm ideas and conceptualize how their dream creative projects can be brought to life.
DREAM STUDIO WORKSHOPS
While other moms were busy taking their kids to soccer games or ballet recitals, I spent my weekends exposing my girls to entrepreneurship. Neither of them was sporty, so I had to come up with an alternative way for them to develop resilience, a growth mindset and a belief in themselves and their abilities.
Together we brainstormed ideas, and I helped the girls shape them into bigger concepts and marketable products. Monki Lemonade, Lunastella and Oliolly are all entrepreneurial projects that came to life in our household.
HOW IT STARTED
Our Past Initiatives
GO TO LUNASTELLA
Lunastella, founded by my older daughter, Luna, is a hair accessories brand that turns discarded fabrics headed to landfills and turns them into beautiful scrunchies and hair ties. Lunastella donates 100% of its profits to Misioneros del Camino, a charitable, non-profit organization whose mission is to care for the orphaned, abandoned and malnourished children of Guatemala. A social impact business, Lunastella has donated over $10,000 to Misioneros del Camino through the sale of its hair products.
Lunastella’s mission is two fold: to help reduce fabric waste while providing much needed funding to a community in need.
Lunastella
Monki Lemonade was founded by my younger daughter, Amaya, when she was in fourth grade and enjoyed getting creative in the kitchen. She started making lemonade to take to school and shared that she and her friends couldn’t get enough. What she hadn’t realized was that she was making the lemonade with monk fruit sweetener, not regular white sugar. I was thrilled that her lemonade was low glycemic, didn’t spike her blood sugar and tasted delicious.
Amaya started making and bottling the lemonade in our kitchen and sold it at kids’ fairs, school festivals and local markets. Amaya learned how to turn an idea into a business and I enjoyed guiding her.
