RAINBOW SCRAPBOOK KIT INSPIRATION

ALI EDWARDS DESIGN INC BRAND AMBASSADORS

• We’ve received a few inquiries about the status of our 2022 Creative Team and wanted to take some time today to share more information about our plans. After many years of approaching our Creative Team in the same way we have decided to try something different this year with the ultimate goal of welcoming, embracing, and sharing a wider variety of memory keeping inspiration. For 2022 we are reaching out to people from our community to participate in a trial/pilot Brand Ambassador program which will allow us to explore and evaluate how this kind of program may work for both the people participating and for our company. You may see people using the hashtag #AEDambassador which will let you know that they are participating. Our hope with embarking on this new program is to continue to inspire and encourage people to tell the stories of their lives in whatever way makes the most sense for their life right now. We are starting this program off as a trial for 2022 in hopes that we can offer this opportunity to to more community members in the future. We are excited about this change and are excited to see how the program evolves over the year.  As always, thank you for being a part of this storytelling community.

NEW CLASS: THE STORY OF SELF W/ LAURA WONSIK

• *Win a seat for yourself and a friend on our AED Instagram account!* Join Laura Wonsik on a journey of self-exploration to learn more about yourself and your true identity. The Story of the Self is created by a memory keeper for memory keepers with the knowledge that this particular creative outlet is rich with material for this inner work. This class includes lessons in mindfulness, values, self-care, and vulnerability, all of which will help you uncover deeper layers of your story and find your authentic storytelling voice. In this four-week workshop, Laura will guide you through a variety of frameworks to explore your identity from different angles, using different methods, all tied together with the goal of being curious wanderers in the terrain of our identity. The content is aimed at building awareness of your inner and outer worlds in a way that becomes a practice ground for building insight, flexibility, patience and change through the memory keeping process. Learn more here.

As always, we’re so grateful to have you all as members of this community! Thanks for joining me today and have a great weekend!
