This mentorship is the perfect fit for you if you want to:

  • Understand your goals and how to get there.

  • Take action to shoot for the stars.

“When I started my freelance journey, I was feeling insecure about my technical skills and questioning if this is what I should be doing. Ashley not only held space for me emotionally and mentally but she also offered to give me a crash course in what I needed to know in order to fine tune my Adobe skills. She continues to be one of the loudest cheerleaders in my corner!”

Open Discussion

This is an open discussion during one of your three sessions to ask questions about whatever! There are many topics to discuss about freelance, so this is a great way to ask random questions that may not fit into any of the other discussion topics.

Finding your Own Artistic Style

Add your pricing strategy. Be sure to include important details like value, length of service, and why it’s unique.

Portfolio Review

Even if you don’t have a portfolio, a portfolio review can still be done by looking over the work you have already created. This is more of an evaluation of where you are, what projects excite you creatively, and what current projects you can use to build your portfolio.

My experiences have allowed me to build a library of topics to share with you.

If it wasn’t for the people in my life that have provided endless encouragement and feedback to help me stay motivated and inspired, I wouldn’t be where I am today. This service is for creatives and freelancers alike that want a mentor by their side to bounce ideas off of and talk through the stages of freelance as they grow their business.

Before your mentorship begins, we will establish where you are at in your creative journey, your overall questions and curiosities that need to be addressed, and how I can help guide you in a productive way during our time together.

I customize your mentorship experience to what you need guidance on most. You’ll be able to select 3 topics that our conversations will be aligned with, along with a goal setting framework to keep you motivated beyond your mentorship!

I offer 3 open spots per quarter!

I’m here to inspire you.

Hello! I’m Ashley - the designer, illustrator, and founder of Libra Collective. Over the past few years, I’ve worked with clients all over the world, and in various industries from start ups to large corporations. Needless to say, I’m confident with where my creative business has taken me, and I feel a calling to share my knowledge with you.

I have curated an ecosystem of services that will allow you to realign with your goals, bring clarity to the questions you have, and help you shoot for the stars.

FAQs

  • I will send you a questionnaire prior to our guidance call that will help me understand what you specifically need guidance on. I make sure to be prepared prior to our call so no time is wasted, and so you get the most out of our time together.

    The mentorship works in a similar way. I will ask you questions prior to our mentorship, prepare material for you, and I will make sure to align our conversations to what will benefit you most and propel you forward in your creative journey.

  • These services are all done online via google meets! Often times we will share screens so this is the most productive way to communicate with each other for these sessions. If you are more comfortable with a phone call for the guidance calls, that works also!

  • Everyone starts somewhere. The more you allow yourself to be curious, ask questions and build your knowledge, the faster you will get to where you want to be. If there was one piece of advice I could have given myself at the beginning of my freelance journey, it would have been to talk to a professional that has been doing this for a long time - so I could learn more early on instead of learning the hard way. So congrats on starting here! You’re in the right place!
