Creating for a living takes a special kind of person: one part artist and one part entrepreneur. We want to inspire Canadian makers, creators and artists to keep (or start!) pursuing their creative passion in life and make the most of creating what they love. When you run a creative business you need to keep your “inspiration well” full, your mind and body healthy and your business brain sharp. You also need friends and a community that understand what your days are like.  That’s why And She Looked Up was created - to create a space for Canadian female artists, creatives and makers to come together and share our ideas and stories while growing our creative businesses! Your host, Melissa Hartfiel, is a designer, illustrator, writer, and photographer with a penchant for vibrant colour. She’s owns three businesses and has been a self-employed creative since 2010. She resides just outside of Vancouver, Canada. You can connect with the podcast  on:Instagram at @andshelookedup Facebook YouTube Tik Tok at @AndSheLookedUpFor a list of all available episodes, please visit:And She Looked Up Creative Hour PodcastEach week The And She Looked Up Podcast sits down with inspiring Canadian women who create for a living.
